Iron Will and One Action, Two Strikes

L5R CCG Rules board, 21 September 2011

A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing. Players' names are left out; the rules officials are named. Rulings are as they stood on these dates; later rulings, the rulebooks and the Rules Archive may differ.

Hello!

I play One Action, Two Strikes and resolve my additional battle actions normally. Later in the same battle, my opponent reacts with Iron Will. Do I get an additional action? I would think not.

Relevant texts:

One Action, Two Strikes Battle: If the enemy leader has taken any battle action during this battle: You may take two additional battle actions after this one. You will not take any other additional battle action this battle.

Iron Will Reaction: After another player targets your Paragon with a Battle action performed by a Personality with lower Personal Honor: The action's costs are ignored and its effects are negated. That player may take an additional Battle action.

Thanks

You are correct. The previous resolving of One Action, Two Strikes will make the granting of an additional action from a later Iron Will fail.

As a follow-up to this question, what happens if I use Iron Will on one of the 2 additional actions granted by One Action, Two Strikes?
