Been a while since the last blog, things have been insanely busy at L5R HQ. Thought I'd pop in now for a short look at what we have coming up this year!
The Heaven's Will
As you likely already saw on TCGPlayer's news, The Heaven's Will expansion will release this summer. This expansion features the tumultuous events of the war between the Obsidian and Jade Dragons and the Moon and Sun. Of course, it's not only grand cosmic war, the trials and tribulations of the samurai on the ground takes center stage as the Race for the Throne reaches the final stage.
Samurai Championships
The four qualifiers in the US, Europe, Australia, and South America start this summer. 32 players will move to the November final in Los Angeles to duke it out in a tournament that will count as an entire leg in the Race for the Throne. But they won't be alone, as a global storyline event at all Dojo Days participating stores will take place that same day, allowing every player to support their Clan in the final push!

L5R RPG 3rd Edition Revised
The L5R Third Edition RPG is updated with more information, more story, and improved rules with this 2nd reprinting of the Third Edition rules. For those who have been looking for a copy of the corebook, this is a great time to pick up the game!
In the L5R RPG, you can roleplay all of the great clans from the CCG, as well as many minor clans that make appearances in the CCG, but don't have the influence to affect the major storyline. There are many additional sourcebooks, including information on the Shadowlands, each Clan, Dueling, Magic, Creatures, and much more!
The Legend of the Five Rings RPG uses it's own "Roll and Keep(tm)" System, in which you have stats that allow you to roll a certain number of dice and keep another number out of them for your total. It is a very lethal and unforgiving system in combat, but then again, you are swinging extra long razor blades at each other!
Legend of the Burning Sands
The LBS RPG will release this summer, bringing with it the strange lands north of the Emerald Empire of L5R. From gypsie caravans to mighty empires of pyramids and parthenon, the people of the Burning Sands will have a major impact on the lives of those in the Emerald Empire in the times to come.
And much more, including a board game and graphic novel! I'll be back here on TCGPlayer soon with more!
