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.

I while I know that the rules doesn't normally take rules questions until the set is released, Embers of War has been pre-released and the 30 legality countdown has already started (actually 29 days) and we have cards in hand. If we have to wait until full release (may 14th) then we would only have 19 days to ask questions instead of 29. With that in mind I hope we can start asking question now.
Does Shinjo Junpei (exp) ability require the performing unbowed personality to also be a Tactician (assuming Shinjo Junpei is at home)? If yes, does Shinjo Junpei ability also use up that tactician's tactical action for the turn?

The rules for Tactical say this: An action with the Tactical keyword can only be performed by a Tactician Personality (see Perform). Each Tactician can only perform one Tactical action per turn.
