Most Recent Printing - many card games have a rule that the most recent printed
version of a card becomes the way that all cards should be played.

Imperial Assembly members received a set of decks along with one edition of the
Imperial Herald. We were told to use those to teach new players how to play the
game.

I just don't remember the title of the program off the top of my head.

AFAIK, yes, that would be an error.

These 'training' sets are a pain to deal with in CV.

"The L5R Experience." Great idea, IMHO.

What are MRPs?

Although SoMP are NOT considered to be MRPs, shouldn't they still be
entered into Card Vault anyway? I see Magic: The Gathering has both
Portal AND Unglued in their files.

Thanks,

Yes, that's the set I'm talking about. Comes in that neat little
pouch/folder thingie with the elastic band to keep it closed.

Yes, but that means we need to change the name so that they will not collapse
over *real* versions of a card.

So how about an "*" after the name or similar thing to keep it from collapsing?

Absolutely.

They probably should be entered, but they are not the same as
Unglued. The "teaching" sets in L5R are not collectible in the sense that
all they are is fixed starters. In theory, Unglued was a collectible set
with card rarity and all. That is actually one of the aspects that makes
them annoying to deal with.
From a collectibility stand-point, they don't have a lot of value
- and the individual cards have even less, because they're not likely to be
tournament-legal. Personally, I would not bother to enter them into
inventory for this reason, but I can see why some other theoretical person
might want to.
