You cannot activate Demise of the Land while Great Shogun Shien is special summoned through it's continuous effect. ATEMVEGETA 06:47, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

It will work. "Great Shogun Shien" prevents you from manually activating new cards. You manually activate "Demise of the Land", but the Field Spell Card activates automatically as part of resolving "Demise of the Land". --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 22:24, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

You put me in very deep thinking. Are you sure that it works like that? Is that your opinion or did you find it in a UDE forum or another similar example? Now with a further search I also believe the same thing as you, but I'm still not 100% sure about that. ATEMVEGETA 23:18, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

(Hm, I could have sworn I put "to my knowledge" or something similar in there....)

No, it's my opinion. It's been ruled that you can activate "Demise of the Land" while "Great Shogun Shien" is on the field, but they never explained why. My explanation makes the most sense, to me at least.

I suppose an alternate explanation is that "Demise of the Land" is activating the Field Spell Card, not the player. But the first explanation makes more sense. --Deus Ex Machina (Talk) 21:10, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Ok. Let's leave it as you said. ATEMVEGETA 22:34, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

• Wait a sec. Isn't that the same as "Last Resort" vs "Field Barrier"? Where's the difference? ATEMVEGETA (Talk) 15:42, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Interesting. I guess that now my second explanation makes more sense. "Field Barrier" reads,

Also, a new Field Spell Card cannot be activated.

They cannot be activated, period. Players cannot activate them, and other cards cannot activate them.
