Know No Fear or Iron Will vs Wrathful Ancestor

L5R CCG Rules board, 29 January 2012

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.

This may apply to other may not be negated cards as well.

Wrathful Ancestor: Fear Battle: Choose your performing unbowed Spirit and target an enemy Personality: Move him home. This movement will not be negated.

Know no Fear: Bushido Virtue • Courage Reaction: After another player's action targets your performing Samurai: Negate his bowing and movement from the action's effects. Reaction: After a Fear action targets your performing Samurai: Negate its effects.

Would the action from Wrathful Ancestor be negated, since all the effects are negated?

If it does negate everything, I assume that Iron Will would work the same? Also assuming that the Paragon has higher PH than the performing Spirit. 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.

Seems like they would work this way, but I'm just making sure.
