Hey everyone!!! I have great news!

Darren Hazelden and I started up our own podcast to talk about everything L5R related.

In this first cast, we have special guest, Mark Armitage join us!! If anyone doesn't know who Mark is, he goes by Hinomura here on the boards. He is our organizer of the Dinner for Villains at gencon.

Give us a listen. If you like what you hear, please like and follow us on our Facebook page!

We have it up on Soundcloud and iTunes now!

Our first episode reminisces a little on Old5R and the new info dump we got from FFG for New5R!!! This one is longer than we intend on doing in the future, but it is filled with great content.

Apologies for the construction work going on during recording. I tried to mute as much as possible. They just HAD to do this during the time we decided to record. lol

Also, we fully intend on doing a Q&A section in future casts so I encourage everyone to ask our opinions on anything related to L5R.

Hope you all enjoy it!!

Luckily the construction work was really kept to a minimum, and I have to say I like to say online when I like something, and for a first podcast this was really not too bad, looking forward to your next episode then.

Awesome! Thanks for listening!

This was great!! I've been thrilled with what we've seen from the big reveal this week, and poking around looking for a recorded discussion of veterans providing their initial reactions. Your podcast fit that bill, and I completely enjoyed your content. Definitely looking forward to more material, and hopefully Mark can come back again. Thanks guys, well done.

Thanks for listening and PLEASE don't forget to like and follow our page!

So Sparks, you don't hate the game? I won't waste my time listening to you complain about this version of L5R for two hours if that's the case.

That was quite entertaining. I did notice that you never actually got to the Spider/Mantis discussion, though.

This podcast is indeed a podcast.

I approve.

I knew Darren a bit from Conquest days. Glad to see he is doing L5R. I will subscribe when you are on Itunes.

Episode 2 is now up!

So the first show has there legitimacy as a podcast questioned while they make a fortune on merchandise with there faces on it. Fallowed by several segments that are somewhat average but they hype up what they are doing while blaming a previous podcasts for all there troubles then finally they force in a new meta that is disliked by a sizable number of player and is eventually replaced by a new podcasts meta?

Just a comment. I really enjoyed the last episode. The only thing I would recommend, is that if you are talking about a card please give a brief synopsis of what it does, especially now with the game being new and unreleased. I believe towards the beginning of the podcast, you were talking about the card "I Can Swim" and I for the life of me couldn't remember the cards effect.

In the future, we plan on giving our opinions on cards overall. And we will go in to much greater detail on each individual card once all cards are previewed. And hopefully the rules will be spoiled by then.

Updated the OP with a link to iTunes for all you lovely people who sell their souls to Apple!

Episode 3 is now up!

Episode 4 is now up! We have a genuine spoiler for you all this time.

Thanks, and I put just a haiku about your podcast into the haiku fight thread. I enjoy you podacts, but I listen pretty much to every L5R podcast at the moment... gathering all that I can get for the wiki!

Not flashy at all, but likely a staple for a good long while. At worst, it'll be a card that you're grateful it exists, in case certain clans get out of control with some of their effects.

I keep telling myself I don't want to play Lion, but all these spoilers are making me want to splash them. Great episode!

Here is our exclusive spoiler from the podcast.
Thank you, FFG for giving this to us!

Ready for Battle

A few of things:

A) Been enjoying the podcast. And thanks for the spoiler yesterday.

B) This is a good card. And for 1 Influence....

C) What if Akodo Dairuko is the new look of Matsu Tsuko?

That's the art from the Ivory/20F card Way of the Lion.

At this point, I'm kind of wondering if Akodo Dairuko has morphed into Matsu Tsuko.
