AEG Press Release - Fires of Turmoil Technical Erratum

From the AEG Website

Hello Samurai of Rokugan,

It has come to our attention that many players out there are unhappy with the way a particular card, Fires of Turmoil, interacts within the rules set, specifically that one could use it to bow their opponent’s Stronghold at an early stage of the game when gold production is crucial, and a bowed Stronghold can be devastating. Some players insisted it was a power issue, so our Design Team has gathered information on the subject and after testing, we feel it could potentially create both a power and fun issue, neither of which is good for the game.

Bushiroad Press Release - Today's Cards - 11th August 2014

From the Bushiroad Website

The weekend here was pretty cool, with lots of rain on Sunday, and strong winds throughout. Must be the nearby storm(s). I found myself asking whether it was summer or autumn quite a few times. Not that I'm complaining though, give me cool and windy days over hot and humid ones anytime!

And after seeing today's cards, I have a serious regret that I used Marika for last Friday's thumbnail, and so by policy I should not use Marika again for today's. Despite how awesome she is. Woe is me, sob sob.

After Action Report – Strategic & Adventure Game Association Game Day @ El Toro Public Library, August 9, 2014

I hosted the Strategic & Adventure Game Association Game Day at the El Toro Public Library on Saturday.  We had 22 people at the event with six to seven games being played at any one time.  The crowd was larger than I anticipated since the other events I have been attended recently.  Since the beginning of August all of those events have had lower than normal attendance so it was good to see so many people at this event.

We had a person that was heading out to the Ticket to Ride National Championships at Gen Con next week come to practice for that event as well.  We wish her good luck in her attempt at becoming the national champion and moving on to the world championship.
