I'd been planning to do this when Children was released, but that's not happening yet, so I've done it with the announcement of the Crane pack

And here is the mandatory link to the spreadsheet:

Yes, that's why I put it...

Ah, I see you follow the old tradition of the Ikoma historians...

On another note: Could you put a greyed row between the Unicorn and Crane packs? That way would be faster to find where one pack ends and other starts.

Also, I think we can safely assume Daidoji Uji is gonna be the 5-coster in the Crane pack :D

Actually based on Shiba Tetsu he could easily be a 2 or 3 coster.

But he's on the cover of the pack, he *must* be the five-coster of the pack!

But Ignoble Enforcers was the 5 cost of the Scorpion clan pack but Bayushi Aramoro, a 4 cost, was the cover art for the pack. We’ve only had two clan packs, their isn’t a pettern to go by because one was never set.

There just going to attempt to pick the art they feel is the coolest for the clan packs. And thats always going to chance a hit or miss. The Unicorn one has the least pizazz compared to other 3 we’ve seen.

How's that?

Looks good, might be even better with the first row greyed as well for constistency.

Makes sense. I'll update the sheet, so it is done with the next update.

That's perfect. Thanks.

I have updated the first post after all those spoilers in the livestream.

I also did a bit of jigsawing stuff, so there are a few more assumptions and guesses in there as well.

Indeed. But currently running BB section for another hour, I'll get to it in about an hour and a half.

Aranat in the old Lore was one of the children of the Kami Shinjo.

I have updated the OP, with a little speculation - I reckon the 5-coster is the Moto Khan, whom we know is Moto Ogodei from the RPG Book Emerald Empire . I'm also guessing that the Wild Stallion is a Creature and Cavalry.

Release late March do we think?

Wyld Stallyns? EXCELLENT!

He's obviously pissed because he can't enter the forest right behind him. He'd get stuck...

Everybody keep an eye out for any Yasuki armed with gaijin pepper weaponry.

And the hot takes!

Kakita Ryoku - And now the Crane have yet another free Honor on a stick. Not sure how this interacts with the Unicorn Pack, but it certainly is an interesting trick for them against Scorpion.

Ikoma Anakazu - Ahem. This is the only Philosophy that the Lion Clan needs. A 6 Mil / 6 Pol / 2 Glory Bushi for 4 Fate is a **** of a Conflict character. This might actually be the card to make Lion start running Appealing to the Fortunes, as he becomes a 6/6 body for free on that break.

Agasha Taiko - That is an interesting ability. I think that this is going to be a staple of Dragon decks, regardless of anything else. Protecting your Restoration of Balance on T1 to make sure that your opponent has to hit it on T2? Glorious.

Kaito Nobukai - Hi, Kosori's uncle! Nice to see you. As for what you do... I am just glad that you are not a Conflict character. Because... OOF. Luckily, most Unicorn pack some form of Ready. Which means you really just don't like Crane?

Shosuro Hyobu - I wonder... are we going to see more tax cards? Because, right now, the Unicorn have two "ditch a card" effects, Crab have the Heavy Ballista, the Crane can Card Tax... Am I missing something? I mean, don't get me wrong. I love Shosuro Hyobu. City of Lies for the RPG is my jam, and Hyobu is a character who will always live in my (dark, shriveled, twisted) heart. But I am curious as to her usefulness.

Ivory Kingdoms Unicorn - Ha. Haha. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Aaaa... Hhhew. I needed that laugh. But seriously, other than Charging this on my opponent to break their third province, and rolling off of it to swing at their box when I am first player? Breakthrough on a body is nothing great. This card just makes me sad that the flavor text isn't a link to donate money to the Ol Pejeta Conservancy in Africa, which is desperately trying to save the rhino from extinction.

Seriously, go give them money and become a better human being in the process. https://www.olpejetaconservancy.org/

Gaijin Customs the Ivory Unicorn and swing?? Probably meh, but I like it!
