Other than as a province flattener out of wasp what good is that ranged attack?

Battle: Target an opposing Follower or Personality without Followers: Reduce his Force by 6.
Burn it Down is love.

It's all the flavor of KA without the messy box. Not spectacular, but not craptastic.

Killing is better.
This is a two step combo card that doesn't remove opposition. Voted meh

Pro: This is the perfect personality for Kyuden Ashinagabachi.
Con: Kyuden Ashinagabachi is a terrible stronghold
He perfectly compensates for one of shooty's big handicaps (Low Force) with his blanket +1, and has a bigass non-bowing RA for Burn it Down. -6 Force isn't a ZOMG ability but it's not bad.
A+ out of Ashinagabachi, Blah out of anything else.

He's a 5F attacker for 8G with Force reduction/Burn it Down synergy out of Ashinagabachi.

Of course it is. I don't think anyone would disagree with that. But, it is the second biggest base ranged attack in the game, from what I can remember.

So, he's technically 5 force while attacking, right? With a Burn it Down or even a decent follower he could be a turn 3 province. I also like his blanket force pump ability, considering most KA decks lack force to smash provinces at any kind of speed.

I think I may have to look at KA again. Not that it's better. But if they keep printing cards like this it could become a valid decktype. I'm just getting tired of EHP.

Glad to know I'm not the only one. Seriously.

Don't care if it doesn't kill: force reduction, no bow.
burn it down, no bow.
5 force tsuruchi :shock:
KA's all I've been playing in SE, so this makes me happy.

He's effectively 12 force for 8 gold out of KA, and the big thing holding KA back was the low force.

I want this type of personality support to die in a HUGE fire.
