The Unstored

I’d like to publicly welcome Jonathan, Chuck, and Shaphan to the Unstored. Each joined me in playing some draft Plague War on Friday night. Jeff (TinyKingJeff from JoeGamer.net) also joined us as well. Much fun was had despite getting in only two games of round robin. I ended up not playing even though I drafted, and instead I officiated and helped the new players understand rules and mechanics as best I could. If it meant adding a new player or two every week, I would gladly not play. I gave each new player a play set of commons from The Plague War as well as a thank you for coming (and honestly something of a bribe to come again).

Draft rules don’t really lend themselves to certain play styles and this was a point of frustration for a couple players. Despite this I think we all had fun. If I’m correct, each player ended up 1-1 after the two games which is pretty cool in my book. At least one person suggested we play constructed next time. While I like drafting for several reasons (and not just because I’m selling the cards), playing constructed WOULD give us more time to play. Let me know what your preferences are.

Again, welcome guys. I was really happy to have you guys there, and I hope we can do it again. Now just figure out what your animal totems are and we’re a go.  FYI I’m frog, Josh is monkey, Lynn is dalmatian, Cory is fox (I think), and Raegan (yes, even Rae) is panda.

I’ve completed my checklist for Legend of the Five Ring’s expansion set The Plague War. Please click that link or the one that is provided in the right hand menu.

Also you can reference my older post with the other Celestial Edition checklists.

Edit: I’ve been asked to illustrate some of the features of our most recent checklist. There are multiple tabs. The first tab is a full checklists without the tokens. The next three tabs are: rares only, uncommons only, and commons only. The final tab is for the tokens that come with the set. As this is a checklist only the most basic information is given: card number, title, rarity, clan affiliation (including ronin), and any special notes. I try to indicate if a card has been MRP’d, banned, or otherwise changed from the original printing.
