_{Rule hint for this card}

This card has an erratum:

Rishon Uxbridge was fine for a long time. Like many early cards, the phrasing it used was more colloquial, of a sort that nowadays is often found amusing (when not confusing). Then came the Shades of Gray expansion, and a card called Rishon. The interaction between Rishon, Kevin Uxbridge, and Rishon Uxbridge was discovered late in Shades of Gray development, but the design team thought it was cute enough to leave it in place. In the exceedingly unlikely event that all three cards are in play at once, Kevin the interrupt could discard the personnel card of his re-created wife. We're now taking this opportunity to eliminate that silly interaction, modernizing the wording of Rishon Uxbridge to match how its original gameplay would be written today.

Game text before errata: "Plays atop one Event card in play. Protects the underlying event from Kevin Uxbridge. However, Kevin Uxbridge may remove (discard) Rishon. (Not cumulative.)"
