Legend of the Five Rings?

Tiew

First Post
Hey, could somebody please tell me more about Legend of the Five Rings? I assume the title is a reference to the Book of Five Rings. I'd really like to play a good eastern/samurai game sometime but I'm not sure how hard it is to get it right. Is Legend of the Five Rings a good attempt? What books would I need to buy to be able to play it? Has anybody else played it?

Thanks,

Legend of the Five Rings is directly based on the Book of Five Rings. There is both a CCG as well as an RPG, plus some novels.

You can check out more about L5R here: Alderac's Legend of the Five Rings Page

Click on Fiction, and there's weekly fiction posted. That'll give you a good feel for the setting, and it's all free. :)

As far as books, I would wait until GenCon, when they should be releasing the 3rd edition of the L5R game. It's a great time to get involved in the setting. :)
