Do events that add state support need support checks in states my opponent carries or occupies?
The rulebook's rule changes section requires these checks, and it overrides the designer's older answers from the first edition.

Yes. Under the current rules, state support an event grants needs a Support Check in a state the opponent carries or occupies, the same as campaigning there. The rulebook's rule changes section says so. The designer's 2007 and 2009 answers that event-placed support skipped checks described the earlier edition and are superseded. Media support in that region still removes the checks.
