Courts of the Crane Clan

Would the Scorpion be able to strike back with a military victory if we choose political victory?

That's a question for the rules team, but in my oppinion it shouldn't happen. If we win a 'definitive' victory against someone and then they won a different 'definite' victory against us, it would give us an edge, it would only be a trade of power.

IF I was on the rules team, clans that placed lower than others couldn't retaliate with the same kind of event/prize as they were affected. Or at least couldn't use the 250+ prizes against higher clans that 'attacked' them.

Fair point, it's worth clarifying with the story team. I asked on the AEG boards, and my post is awaiting moderation. I'd imagine they have thought of that and there's a tiebreaker.
