No. They stay. You just can't go up in force any more.

Remember the mantra:
There are no timing problems. There are no timing problems. There are no
timing problems.
From the FAQ:
"Q: There are so many cards now that let someone act before the Defender in
a battle... How do I tell which one goes first?
"A: For simplicity, these have all been ruled to work at the same speed, no
matter whether they say "before the Defender's first action", "before any
other actions", "immediately after the start of a battle", or whatever. The
first chance to use one of these goes to the player whose turn it is, then
it proceeds normally around the table in turn order.
"Q: Are these cumulative? Can I act twice before the Defender if, say, I
have two Daikuas in the battle?
"A: Cards that give you the exact same kind of extra action aren't
cumulative with each other. Even if you have ten cards that give you "one
action before the Defender", what you get is exactly that: "one action".
Different types of extra action (for example, a general action from Daikua
plus a terrain from a Scout) will stack with each other. Also notice that
Sneak Attack is subtly different. It doesn't give the attacker an extra
action, but rather changes the order of play for the normal actions for that
battle. It's cumulative with cards like Daikua -- but, again, not with
itself."
>Do errata apply to all new versions of the same card, topping MRP?
In the case of Oni no Kamu, yes. I wouldn't go so far as to label it a
general rule, however.

*shrug* I could spin a similar tale for Toritaka Genzo. "Genzo" is an
anagram for "Go, Zen", and "Falcon" (Genzo's clan) could be taken as a pun
on my last name (which I think is derived from "falcon" way back in its
linguistic history).
After the "Hida Yakamo = Zen Faulkes?" thread that popped up during
Hidden Emperor (with someone sugesting that Tommy Pons' rendition of Hida
Yakamo was based on me), you learn that folks are very, very quick to see
resemblances everywhere.
For instance...

No.

No. Sensei has become a reserved game term.

He's still a sensei (card text). He's just isn't affected by cards that
affect sensei.

You can't play Amnesia on yourself. If your opponent cast it, however,
you could attach a new sensei with A New Teacher.
Did I just become the first person to figure out how to put two Sensei on
one stronghold?
Course, it *does* require help from another player, so I don't think I
care...
