This list was compiled by Chris
Bigg. It was originally found on Geoff Speare's page.
Rarities of each card appear after the card name. C1=common one copy on sheet, C2=common - two copies on sheet, U=uncommon, R=rare, CL=clan starter deck only. Hida Yakamo the Experienced 2 Thunder appears in the schism Crab starter, while Isawa Tadaka the Experienced 2 Thunder appears in schism Phoenix starter.
Note that these are the abilities of the cards as they appear on the cards, without errata. For official errata, check out the L5R FAQ on Jeff Alexander's web page.
The Moshi Wakiza Inexperienced card found in the Phoenix starters has the picture from the Experienced Moshi Wakiza. Since the card's pictures do not affect the game (sometimes they do, no one likes crappy artwork, and Koichi isn't that nice to look at.) This doesn't have any real affect. A Moment of Truth from Time of the Void is a distinct card from A Moment of Truth from Anvil of Despair, and you may have 3 of each in a deck. There are 12 stronghold cards appearing as uncommons in the set, they overwrite all other past Strongholds (ie Naga), and are distinguished from the rest of the cards by story text on the back. There are two different texts to the Experienced Toku, the one with "Toku cannot perform any other action more than once per turn." is the right one. Lastly the 2 schism clans (Crab and Phoenix) do not overwrite the Imperial/Emerald/Obsidian edtion Crab and Phoenix strongholds. They are played seperately, but both are considered their respective clans for "clan" purposes.
