BC2011: L5R: War of Honor

Post by **Vardaen** » Tue Apr 26, 2011 11:52 pm

With the emmient release of AEG's Multiplayer expansion to L5R card game called War of Honor I'm hoping to get a game of this in at the Con.

It can run with between 3-9 players and says is best at 5.

Comes with 4 ready made decks and is Celestial Edition Legal. So if I can get my hands on it prior to the Con I'm hoping to run the game on Sunday. Probably take 1-2 hours at tops, even with folks that don't really know the rules well. Basically hoping we can get 5 folks together to give this a shot.

MadVlat, Brennor, Me, that's three right there!

For those that know the game and want to just bring a CE legal deck with you if don't want to use one of the pre made decks.

The premade clans are:
Lion
Phoenix
Crane
Scorpion

I believe we'll only want to run with 1 clan each, no overlapping, to make best use of the box set.

If we can manage 5 players for this I am going to put up this promotional card for the winner.

AEG wrote: As a means of thanking its wonderful fans, AEG has always made an effort to be a charitable company, a tradition which continues with the Stone of Remembrance. Available for pre-order now in the online store for $5, the Stone of Remembrance is a tournament legal promotional card that you can only get through this offer. 100% of the proceeds will go to the American Red Cross to help in their humanitarian efforts around the world, efforts which are currently helping those in need in Japan. AEG's hearts go out to those in Japan.

The Stone of Remembrance will ship September 1st. If you purchase a Stone of Remembrance with other items, the other items will ship first per normal store operating procedures, and your Stone of Remembrance will be shipped in September via first class mail.

The L5R community has always been very generous, and we trust that great tradition will continue. Thank you.

The AEG Team

I've never played a CCG, but I'd be up for it if you need another person.

Awesome! I'm still hopefull that it will be out in time.

Me, Bren, MV, Shurijo that's 4 will be easy enough to find a 5th, and we can even play with more if folks want to play more than once. It all hinges on me actually getting my hands on it in time.

Turns out the Stone of Rememberance card won't be out until September so I'll be thinking of another prize for the winner!

Order confirmed, UPS claims it will be in my hands 06/15/2011! Plenty of time for BrenCon, so this "event" is a go.
