Brother Ranz - Resolved (by Brother Ranz)

Post by Siegebeast2142 »

I traded a ton of L5R Cards for some of his Hordes models. I sent my half of the trade, he's received it, but since saying that he's received it, he hasn't been back on to give me a shipping number. I haven't received the items, either.

I have the MKII cards. I was hoping you would know what the stuff was. I did not paint it or collect. I received in a trade. I will see what sort of a list I can come up with since you have interest.

If each unit/model has it's mk2 cards, then just a list of all the cards that you have would be enough. As long as there aren't extra cards beyond the models.

I'm willing to do this trade. Only two stipulations: If you can't get me a list, I'd request that you ship first, so that I can assess the value. After assessing the value, as long as it's worth at least $250, I'll ship my end priority. If your lot isn't worht $250, I'll ship it back to you, at my expense.

If you can get me a list, I'll ship first.

Hi there!

I have been out of L5R for a while, so I needed to see what I needed. Emperor Edition is going out at the end of the year and I do not know how much time I have to play before it goes out. Most of the cards will not be usable next arc, so I am going to need to take a look at the value. I will be in touch,

Scott

Ivory probably won't be around till January, so for tournaments, you'll still have Worlds, the jeweled championships, and the other big one that I can't remember the name of.

Hey there!

I know you posted a list of rares and whatnot. Are there special sets, promos, commons/uncommons as well? I can get more value out of it If those are included as once Emperor goes out, we may do some Open games or may even keep playing Emperor with some of our friends. Whatcha got mate? Round terms are OK, I don't need a precise list unless you think something is particularly noteworthy item. I will get me list and counts together for you are well.

I don't have any commons/uncommons in here, but I do have Forgotten Legacy (almost two sets) direct to player (d2p), Shadows Embrace d2p, I have an unopened kotei/con pack, I have most of the jeweled championship promo event cards. I have pretty much every rare and promo emperor legal. Not QUITE every one of them, but most of them.

When I get home tonight, I will get you a proper list. I can use those cards and pick up the commons and uncommons elsewhere.

Awesome, thanks! I appreciate it. I suggest Cool Stuff Inc or Playccg.com for picking up the commons/uncommons. They usually have cheap common/uncommon block playsets. I think CCG has a playset of every common in an expansion for $10 or something super cheap like that.

I was able to get to my basement and get a count:

12 Immortals
10 Swordsmen + Standard and Officer
10 Venators
5 Ferox
2 Catapults and crews
1 Basilisk Drake
2 Basilisk Krea
1 Cyclops Brute
1 Cyclops Savage
2 Titan Cannoneers
1 Agonizer
2 Ancestral Guardians
1 Extoller Soulward

Archdomina Makeda
Lord Assassin Morguoul
Lord Tyrant Hexeris
Master Tormentor Morghoul
Supreme Aptimus Zaal
+Kovaas
Supreme Archdomina Makeda
Tyrant Xerxis
+all of the cards.

My buds and me were in on Warmachine at the start. We created the Sorscha 3D and won origins and gencon with that. I created Denny Assassin and won tons of events with that. I beat Jason Soles, in front of Matt Wilson and 50 pressgangers, writers, fans... 1,000 to 0 with Khador over his Cryx. My friend Gary and Me developed and tested the Khador Hammer and helped Privateer Press sell all of their Kodiaks when Gary won Gencon and I developed the concept of zero cost casters. If was fun times but the old friends have moved on. It seems that you are very excited about it and I wish you well and feel good about helping you get in and you helping me get back into L5R!

Are you into the RPG at all? I have the Urban book for the new edition of the RPG. I also have an unpainted Gladiator I would like to offer for my lateness. The box got tossed in a corner and my lackey never mailed it. My fault for not asking for the tracking number. Is the RPG book of use to you? I do not have the core book. text me if you need me again: [ph# removed - MM] I am trying to FB less. Let me know, I think I have another Skorne or two.
