"Its lips are torn and bloodied, its flesh lies rotting at the bottom of the sea. Yet he is still my Emperor, and I hear his voice foaming up from the depths of the Pit, echoed in this eternal cup of bone...Where he commands, I have no choice but to follow." From "Fu Leng's Skull"

Morikage Results Or, rather, lack of Morikage results. I received over 220 reports-- that's a bit more than I was expecting, to say the least. You can see them all here. As I get time, I will continue to try and summarize them here; so far I've only done about 60 or so. 11:09 PM EST, I.Andy |

Site Sponsorship The Shadowlands Refuge of the Lion Clan would like to welcome their first sponsor, the Magic Source. The Magic Source was recommended highly to me by other L5R players, and I am proud they chose to advertise on this site. If you wish to show your appreciation for the work I put in on this site, then make your on-line L5R purchases through the Magic Source. As a way of welcoming our new sponsor, I will be auctioning off a free Wedge to one of the people who purchases DJH through the Magic Source and mentions my site! 9:38 PM EST, I.Andy |

44 DJH Spoilers and Counting We now have 44 DJH spoilers. If the Duelist inserts are made up of the Commons from DJH, then there are only six more we need to track down. Also, apparently some tattoos bow you and some do not. Sending me incomplete spoilers that say "same text as other tattoos" is great, but I really need the exact text, too. If you would, please help me track down the exact text of these cards! 1:00 PM EST, I.Andy |

Way of Shadow This was posted a few days ago. Sorry for the lateness, Morikage has been a huge time sink for me. For the curious, I took second out of ten. Anyway, Dave Williams has stated that the Way of Shadow L5R RPG supplement will be released at the same time as Dark Journey Home, to provide more info on the "truth" of the Ninja. 1:45 PM EST, I.Andy |

Morikage Results Whew!! I have well over 100 tournament reports from Morikage tournaments. That is well above what I expected; thanks to everyone who took the time to write up a report. I won't post the results right away. Due to the extra "snow delay" time given some tournaments, I do not know yet if FRPG would mind posting so many results now. As soon as I find out, I will let you know. 9:52 AM EST, I.Andy |

Enhanced Search Engine Don Quixote has put his own search engine up on the net. This is the same search engine that runs the popular IRC bot Natsune. It offers a lot more options than mine, and is much better suited toward specific searches (although I'm working on it! :) It also searches Doomtown and LBS cards. 5:47 PM EST, I.Andy |

Morikage Tournament Report Form I have created a online form for reporting Morikage results. I hope this will encourage people to let everyone know how their tournaments go! Please use this form and describe the clan breakdown and winners of your tournament. I would also love to see descriptions of your deck, your games and any noteworthy events that occur during your tournaments. If others from your tournament are posting reports too, don't let that stop you from posting your own version of events. After the end of the tournament period, I will make the reports I receive available to everyone in an attempt to archive a piece of this historic tournament. 3:50 PM EST, I.Andy |

What Cards are Legal for Morikage? I've had several requests for card lists for the Extended Jade format. The EJ format is fairly simple. Check FRPG's official Morikage rules and info where it is detailed for everyone, along with a list of locations for all the Morikage tournaments. Mindy has even sent out a list of cards in Jade Edition, and you can grab all HE cards from above. Good luck at the tournament! 5:56 PM EST, I.Andy |

Designer Wins Yeah, we all want it, and no, we'll never get it; but for your own curiosity, here is a scan of Eric Suess's Designer Wins card, autographed by most of the people pictured. If you don't know about this card, the most credible story I've heard is that one sheet was printed up for the design staff, a few (apparently somewhere in the range of 40-60) were handed out to the designers, and the rest destroyed. The card text reads: "If your face appears on this card, then you win the game. Lump it, Fanboy!." If you actually have a Designer Wins card, and ever want to get rid of, talk to me. ;) 3:49 PM EST, I.Andy |

Scoring Morikage It should be noted that Morikage, being such a different type of story tournament, will be judged differently as well. It will not be a simple matter of which clan wins the most tournaments; clan representation will be taken into account as well, in an effort to get players to play their favorite clan and still be able to impact the storyline. For more information, see this message from Luke, with this this followup, and information from Andy Morris. I would also encourage people to stick with clan loyalty, and not play the Clan du jour. 12:59 PM EST, I.Andy |

Another German Morikage Tournament It looks like there will be three German Morikage tournaments (all listed on FRPG's website), including one at Gamers Domain in Muenster. 12:53 PM EST, I.Andy |
