That is right if there are any cards you would like to see generated, either leave a request on this thread --or-- Send me a PM
Just be advised that I do these cards in my spare time and the more info you hand me the better, wither it be title, rules, flavor text or art. The more stuff I have to build your card the better. If I get something wrong or I miss something in your characters description, let me know and I will fix the card.

Sojiro's Crystal Katana- Expensive weapon with bonus vs shadowlands or ninja, or better for a duelist character. Crab Jade Powder- cheap or free item that adds force, or bows, or destroyes or otherwise screws with a shadowlands card and is discarded doing so. Imperial Legion - Expensive, high force follower....possibly unique with a useful battle action and high honor req. Court Attendents - Cheap, zero force followers with the courtier keyword. Maybe bow them instead of their personality for political actions or give their personality the ability to do a printed political action an additoinal time. Open Warfare- Kata- strategy- *Reaction- the first time each phase a player targets a personality he controls with an action, he may discard a card. If he does not, cancel the action.

I don't really know where else to ask this but how many cards do we need to make a full set? I'm curious if we can make a full play set and have them printed up at a kinkos or something. would be kind of fun to have.

There isn't a hard number of cards in a set. Core sets are like 500ish cards and expansions are between 250-350. Direct to player sets are somewhere around 100 cards.

Anyone else interested in this? If so we should probably keep a few of the cards that belong in every set:
The Rings Bushido Virtues Dark Virtues Focus

I think so far we've been avoiding the Auto-include cards. Ambush, Sneak Attack, Spearhead (or rallying cry for the old guard), Retribution (Counterattack for the old Guard), Rout (and it's parents Blocked supply lines and Refugees), Clan holdings (iron mine, gold mine, copper mine, Geisha house, marketplace, and so on....), Farmlands, Otaku Meadows......I could go on and on. If we are serious about wanting to play a EE inspired game, there needs to be some more boxables for certain clans personality base (Lion in particular have many, MANY moderatly expensive personalitys that, while awesome, won't show up fast enough from a 3 gold stronghold.)
A base set runs what? 200....300 cards. I have an Idea that could work with a minimum of effort for our dear Keisuke.
Use the Base set's Fate support, with the EE additions, there are realitivly fewer of them then Dynasty. We could use Only EE dynasty cards (repicture and add EE flavor to the old favorites, like farmlands)
But I reiterate, certain clans will have a strong advantage over others because of a lack of boxables or only haveing uniques... Personalites will need to be tweaked a bit, with a few getting a regular and their current being redone as experienced.

Also, each clan should have a near equal number of personalities. Right now there are 16 lion personalities and 3 crab for example. The Cheapest lion is 8 gold......

agreed. and we can work on those. it seems most players have npcs they use so it should be easy to come up with some boxables i just don't want to get into it if no one else is interested. if others are then i'll be happy to throw my hat in the ring and at least help in card ideas.

Each clan needs at most 20 personalites, preferably NO MORE THEN THAT. It'd get zany real fast. 2nd, each theme needs at least 4 personalities that work well with that theme. 3rd, at least 2 people per theme need to be boxable. Those are the bare minimums in my opinon.

I've been working with Akodo-san on non personality cards. if people have ideas of RP's that they would like me to pull from, or card ideas in general, let me know. I like to think that I have a decent sense of design, and akodo-san does well to buffer them into cards.

So, are we to chip-in into creating an "Emerald Empire" fan set? Woot! Sounds promising! Why don't you start with the Battle at Seawatch card updates? I can assist you in anything you wish!

Now just to find the time to do this all in. With a thought towards themes and workable decks I think I am going to stick with the theme as they emerge in Emperor Edition. I just think it will be easier for those who do not have much experience with the game to move back and forth between our set and the real game.

I know he's gone now, but we should totally have Isawa Tadaka in the Phoenix personalities: both normal & Fallen. Along with the other Elemental Masters. Oh, and maybe that Jade Phoenix spell I just unleashed in the fight with Shoju. Either as a stand-alone or an enhancement that can attach to any Phoenix shugenja that increases offense/defense. Maybe using the image here as the base but spectrum shifted to Green. Have it give the properties that all attacks the attached personality uses possess the Jade keyword and can fly between battlefields perhaps? And for the flavor quote: "...But our foes tremble when they see us enter battle, as we fight FOR Destiny; becoming as Death. Such dualism is the nature of a Phoenix." -Agasha Shodai

If you want fate that mix in well with the personalities and history arc you are playing, wouldn't you need to use Gold or Diamond edition fate? That would then legitimatly allow access to the winds that made sense with regard to the rules. I suppose the alternative would be to use Emperor Edition, for ease, but then also mix in some of the older cards that fit the period and try and find some way of making the winds work. I agree with Yasuki Chad that a lot of personalities would need the unique trait removing, or current cards making into experienced unique with a more basic regular card being created. Would be very cool if you did this project, I'd definitely print it off and give it a fair few games. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)
