It would be a big help if you would identify any and all versions of this card (what set, card number, etc). This makes it much easier to track down the errors. This is one that I think both Rob and I missed. ===== --- Kuni Tetsu Clan War rules guy Moderator of ClanWar-l __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo!

Actually, this only occurs if you add two DIFFERENT Naga Shugenja to the deck. If you add one and then use the +/- buttons to set the quantity, there are no difficulties (at least, that's how it's working in the nearly ready V5.2 files). This is a side effect of the card "Shashakar", which is considered to be the same as a Naga Shugenja for uniqueness. The net result is that all Naga Shugenja are treated the same as Shashakar and must not be mixed. I really didn't want to spend a full day coding around this single bizarre situation, so I left the limitation in that you can't mix multiple Naga Shugenja cards. For the typical user with duplicate merging enabled, this will never arise. And it doesn't need to arise for the user with duplicate merging disabled, since it's just as easy to select a single Naga Shugenja and adjust the quantity. >By the way Rob, have you gotten any of my e-mails?

Why would Cardvault care if Shashakar is the NG? All it says is
"Experienced Naga Shugenja", and this should absolutely not matter for deck construction purposes. All it matters for is that Shashakar can overlay the NS when it enters play, nothing more. Why is this rule here? I may be missing something, but I can't see it.

The Shashakar from Anvil of Despair says "This card is considered to be the
Naga Shugenja for uniqueness". Based on that text and my pitiful LACK of knowledge of all things L5R, it sure sounded to me that Shashakar and the Naga Shugenja must be treated as the same card for uniqueness purposes during deck construction. That's what CV is currently doing. If I'm messed up on this, please explain. Remember, I'm largely clueless about L5R, although I'm doing my best to learn. Things you might consider obvious as a veteran player will be anything BUT obvious to me, so please forgive the ignorance. :-) Thanks, Rob At 12:45 AM 9/3/2003 -0700, you wrote: >Why would Cardvault care if Shashakar is the NG?

OK, it's like this. At the time AoD was shipped (the third
expansion), the Experienced trait was still only applied to personalities with the same name. For example, Akido Kage has a normal and experienced version. The "generic" Naga personalities in Imperial (Shugenja and Warlord) both were done before Naga became a faction, so when it came time to experience them, they went through a process of "individualization". Thus becoming Shashakar and Shahadet. The problem was, thought, that having "experienced" in the trait box wouldn't help, because there was no previous version of them. Therefore, they used that clunky trait to link the two personalities. A few expansions later, as the number of experienced personalities with name changes increased (Kage lost the family name, Hisa gained it, Yasamura married out-of-clan, etc), this text became too cumbersome, and a much more streamlined "Experienced Akodo Kage" appeared, and the "counts as X for uniqueness" was gradually changed to be used only in one type of cards: Cards that represented the same THING, but had a different type (like Hida Kisada becoming a retainer holding. He sure can't be overlayed over the old personality, but having only the "experienced" trait would allow it, BUT it also didn't make sense to have 2 Kisadas in play, one retired old mas as holding and one as feisty young behemoth) I believe Shashakar got the new, simpler "Experienced Naga Shugenja" in Jade Edition, where he was reprinted. Anyway, the bottom line is that in his old card, that "counts as NS for uniqueness" means only that he can be overlaid on it (putting him in play as an "evolution" of the NS). The rule would only be limiting in deck construction if BOTH cards were unique and had the same experienced level, because only then would you be limited to just one per deck. Was that understandable? I tend to ramble a bit.

Let me see if I've got this straight. In the case of the Naga Shugenja and
Shashakar, the "equivalence" of the two cards can be ignored. However, in the case of the Crab Clan Ancestral Sword and Ancestral Sword of the Crab Clan, the equivalence of the two cards DOES need to be distinguished because they are BOTH designated as "unique". Is that right? Assuming I'm on track here, I don't understand how only ONE card being unique makes the pair exempt from deck construction equivalence. I understand the interpretation if BOTH cards are unique or NEITHER is unique, but I'm confused about only ONE being unique. Help?!?! -Rob At 03:05 AM 9/3/2003 -0700, you wrote: >OK, it's like this.

Is that right? Kinda-sorta. The main point is that you have to know the experienced rules. The Shashakar in AoD is badly done, and they changed it in the Jade reprint. There, the entire reference to uniqueness and the NS is changed to a simple trait: "Experienced Naga Shugenja". It should behave as every other card that has text like that. The basic rules are: you can put in a deck 3 of each card, and 1 of each unique. EXCEPT that for this the name of the card is not the only consideration. An example might be helpful: "Ann" is not unique. "Bob" is unique. You can have 3 Anns and only one Bob. Simple. But L5R is a storyline game. In a story, characters evolve. Other just change circumstances. For example, Ann gets an experienced version. This card is also called Ann, but you can put both anns in a deck because the second one has "experienced" in her trait box. So you can put 4 of them. Bob does NOT get experienced. Instead, he simply changed jobs. He was hired by a Crab lord, and is now "Hida Bob". He is reprinted with that name, and no experienced trait. Instead, he gets "this card counts as Bob for uniqueness". Now say the same happens to Ann a few expansions later, but by this time she's much better trained already. She becomes Hida Ann, and gets another experienced level. She gets "experienced 2". BUT a snag; with just that text, she would no longer be able to "evolve" (think the Pokemon game) from a previous Ann in play. So to be able to do that, she has to become "experienced 2 Ann". Shashakar is Ann without the intermediate level. He was NS, and became Shashakar, experienced NS. the AoD text was an earlier unsuccessful attempt to word the above intention. The Swords are ANOTHER case. The intent with the swords is purely to limit deck construction. They are separate items, not an evolution. You simply can't play with both, because in the story the Celestials were a replacement of the Ancestrals after an angry god took those from us. Make more sense?
