[dragon] This is not a game of Magic

[Steven LaFollette]

*sigh*...Shugenja have the biggest amount of meta against their particular 
style i.e. Shaitung xp, Ryoshun's Last Words, Imp Edicts, the list goes on 
and on. Plus, they are the biggest dishonor targets. Also, many actions can 
only target Samurai so that is good enough. Take away enough good things 
from Shugenja and we wont have many good personalities to choose from. Thats 
half our clan. Maybe you should focus on how to use Shugenja to your 
advantage, or play Lion or Crane. All their Shugenja suck anyway :)


Mirumoto Ryudo
Dragon Clan Samurai. Experienced. Togashi's Secretary. *Male*. Dragon Clan 
Flatterer. The Platinum Dragon. Can attach 2 Weapons. Unique.
