I know that this topic was already on forum, but it's locked and I didn't found answer(s) there... first of all..because after previous topic of Sachina I must admit that I'm confused now...does she steal personality until end of the turn or until she dies? second thing: if I would steal personality with attachments, do I control them or the opponent? I mean every kind of attachments, spells, followers and items. (I think the spells are most tricky here because (if I good remember) according to the rulebook, they represents the abilities of shugenja.) It's not obvious for me because Sachina ability states: "(...) pay gold equal to his UNIT"S total gold cost plus four (..)." If I control attachments of stoles personality (but I believe that I'm not control them anyway) can I use this attachments? Or if I do not control them, can opponent use them against me? Or If I would assign stolen personality as a attacker into battle and opponent would send this personality home from 'rout' (Move a target unit home. Destroy one of its attachments (if any)) then destroyed attachment goes to which discard pile? thanks for answers and sorry for doubled topic

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.

The answers to your questions are right next to each other in the wiki, here: http://rules.l5r.com/CE_Physically_mark ... rd_control
1. "Changing control is instantaneous and does not have a duration." That is, this is not an effect that goes away at the end of the turn.
2. "Control of a unit is determined by who controls its Personality(.)" If yo take control of someone with Sachina, you also control all the attachments.
I appreciate that you indicated the set, but the rule team generally prefers if you mention Experienced levels when there are multiple versions of a card. The Experienced level is usually a bit easier to find.
