jadarx posted:Here's how legality in L5R works: Correct: Currently, the legality for the Arc (20 Festivals) is Ivory Edition, its expansions (The Coming Storm, A Line in The Sand, The New Order) and 20 Festivals and its expansions. Next year, Ivory Edition will rotate out of being legal, and 20Festivals forward will be the legal for Arc play. (there's other formats, included Extended and Modern). Currently, the game is about to take a deep turn for darker, the Spider Clan, upset that the new Emperor has gone back on the promises of Iweko I (the Divine Empress), and will seize the throne for himself (as a descendant of the original Hantei Line, he is qualified.) That will be the story line of Onyx Edition. Currently all of the clans are facing choices on what Paths the Clans will take going forward to be voted on by Imperial Assembly members of that clan. For example, the Paths for Crane include being more militarily focused to resist the Usurper (losing ground on the political side of things and making the clan more militaristic), working with the new Emperor to maintain the Clan's position in the courts, and risk the effects therein (not only risking corruption from being close to the corrupted Hantei, but risking fights with the clans working against him), or making sure to preserve the art and honor of the Empire by moving it all to the Colonies (losing a lot of power in Rokugan proper, but preserving the Crane's role in preserving the "soul" of Rokugan in the colonies). Of course, if a majority of the Clan can come up with a path of their own to follow, that's a fourth option (within limits)

So, Mantis players have been informed that the Mantis are going to take a major shitkicking over the next year, so much so that the Mantis Clan is basically going to dissolve into its factions again, and have no Onyx edition stronghold (They're being replaced by the Naga).. and that their story in Onyx Edition will be reforging Yoritomo's dream from bits and pieces.. a minor Clan here, a minor clan there..

The art has long been the strongest part of the CCG and the new guy in charge of it has been kicking rear end.

If you missed it elsewhere Fantasy Flight Games has purchased L5R and will be releasing it as an LCG in 2017. This is AEG's release on the topic.
