A player, 25 September 2012
If Sachina's ability has taken control of an oppents personality and sachina and the personality has been targeted by Blood of the Preserver. Since both are remove from the game at the same time and both enters play at the same time. My question is: A) Where would the controlled personality go? At your home or at you oppentnets home? B) Would Sachina's ablility can be used again?
Blood of the Preserver Battle: Remove this card from the game: Each player chooses zero to two Personalities at the current battlefield. Remove them from the game; cards and tokens stay attached to them. After the next turn begins, each unit enters play in its owner's home, ignoring costs, restrictions, and entering-play effects; then, give them each three +1F Blood tokens.
Yoritomo Sachina Political Limited: Once per game, target a Personality, pay Gold equal to his unit's total Gold Cost plus four, and bow Sachina: Take control of him. After the next time this game Sachina leaves play, give control of him to his owner.
Thanks!
