Thank you, glad the review was useful! L5R is a very cool game, and honestly I think the 'roll-and-keep' system is more interesting with the funky dice than with regular D10s; with regular D10s in the older editions you'd always just keep the higher results, but here the results are more nuanced. I just wish they'd get the Shadowlands book reprinted, the secondary market prices are absurd!
Besides the horrible flimsy box itself, the thing I dislike about this is that the rules are actually different for combat, and the characters aren’t usable in the actual game. Which is a shame because the character folios are stunning!
Excellent review. Looking forward to getting into this.
