LSJ: haqim law's: leadership
Tetragrammaton
need answer on this, in front of a succesful haqim's law leadership::
scenario #1
Meth A , B , C - all controls one assamite, of same capacity
(say, 5)
1- all of them gain 2 pool
or
2 - none of them gain pools
scenario #2 - meth A, B control just one assamite each of 5 capacity,
C controls just one of 4 capacity.
1 - all of the three meths gain 2 pool
or
2 - just meth A and B gain 2 pool (C gains nothing , since he doesn't
control any of the "oldest
ready assamite")
thanks in advance

1. The card says "Each...any of the" rather than "The...the", so it
clearly contemplates more than one Methuselah being able to gain pool.

2. The only way I see 1 making any sense at all is if you think to
yourself "C has an Assamite of capacity 4, and that is his oldest
Assamite, so he gets 2 pool." But then the card would effectively
mean "Any Methuselah who controls a ready Assamite gains 2 pool," and
then you'd have to wonder why they didn't write that. And the best
answer is that they didn't want the card to do that.

1. All of them gain 2 pool (provided nobody else controls
an older Assamite)

2. A and B gain 2 pool each, and C gains nothing
(provided nobody else controls an older Assamite).

Correct.
Who are the oldest ready Assamites? A1 and A2 (at 5 capacity each).
Is A3 (at 4 capacity) one of the oldest? No.
So Meth A controls one of the oldest. She gains 2 pool.
Meth B also.
Meth C does not control any of the oldest, so she gains nothing.
