Tactician and negating the action

L5R CCG Rules board, 9 June 2012 to 10 June 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.

A player, 9 June 2012

So a question came up today about tacticians.

I understand that tacticians may only perform one tactical action a turn. So we had this situation today:

Player A uses his tactician with 2 personal honor to play Tactical Trap targetting a paragon with 4 personal honor. Player B uses Iron Will to negate the action, give Player A an additional action, and refund the costs.

Can Player A use his tactician to perform another Tactical action (or the rulebook tactical) or has he used up his use of tactician for that turn?

Relevant text:

Tactical: 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

Tactical Trap: Battle: Choose your performing unbowed Tactician at any location and target an enemy Personality: Move him home. Bow him if he moved.

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.

The latter.

Even though the effects were negated and the costs were ignored, the Tactical action was still performed by the Tactician, so he cannot perform another that turn per the rules.
