The following is an accumulation of errata. This section will be printed in all expansions until they have been incorporated into the main rules set or the corrected cards have been printed and released. In the meantime, AEG hereby grants permission to photocopy and distribute or publicly post the errata section of this game expansion. There were also errata printed in Herald Issue 11, that do not reappear here. Card Corrections Beginning with the Lion Army Expansion and the second printing of the Clan War boxed set cards, we introduced a kanji (a Japanese writing character) that appears on cards which have had significant corrections made to them (such as Cost changes or wording modifications which make them easier to understand). The new kanji (the first character in the Japanese spelling of "new") appears in the title of affected cards. This symbol lets you know that ifs the latest version of the card and that it supercedes the original version (which has no kanji). All cards are played as if they have the most current wording. Force CardsAsako Yasu: When involved in a duel resulting from the use of his Innate Ability, Yasu may not take Damage during the duel, even if a Kharmic Strike is used. Battle Maidens: The Unicorn Army Expansion reduced this model's cost to 38, and added a restriction against contested mane version requirement to make parting shots. Courtier: The generic Courtier card released in the Crane Arms Expansion should be a unit card-type, not a personality. No Honor gained for generic Courtiers purchased for a Command Group. Crane Regular Bowmen: They have 1 Wound per model. Doji Reju: A shift in data caused errors in his values. Following are the correct values: TN 7, Wounds 3, ATT +2, and DAM +1. Dragon Medium Elite: The Dragon Army Expansion changed their TN to 8/7 Dragon's Talons: The Dragon Army Expansion changed their I to 8/7 and Cost to 28. Dragonscale: The Dragon Army Expansion changed their TN to 8/7 and Cost to 17 Hida Kisada: His card states, "His unit is immune to the effects of Spells and Innate Abilities.' Since the rules do not define "immune", this should more properly be worded as "Spells and Innate Abilities may not target Hida Kisada, nor any model in his unit. In addition, they do not suffer the effects of Spells that do no target specific models, such as Stagnant Air." His ability does not prevent the use of Spells that target models which are engaged with him or his unit nor does it prevent his unit from being targeted by effects such as the Firestorm's Ranged Attack, which are actual balls of fire, and thus Elemental in nature (not magical). Hatamoto: The generic Hatamoto card released in the Crane Army Expansion should be a unit card-type, not a personality. No Honor is gained for generic Hatamoto purchased for a Command Group. The Hooded Ronin: The Hooded Ronin becomes spent after the resolution of the duel when using his Special Order. Ide Lancers: The Unicorn Army Expansion added the Yari bonus (attacks first during the first Combat Phase of an Engagement and casualties are removed before enemy attacks are rolled), and reduced their Cost to 18. Ikoma Tsanuri: No Tactical Cards may be played on or to penalize/benefit any unit or model in an engagement that directly involves Tsanuri. This includes attached cards as well as those froma player's hand. Isawa Elite Pikemen: Their Cost is 14, as in the original rules. Isawa Tadaka: The Phoenix Army Expansion corrected their TN to 8, Wounds to 8, Cost to 294, and added a Resistance Modifier to Special. Ise Zumi : The Dragon Army Expansion changed the Ise Zumi to comply with the new Tattoo rules. Iuchi Takaai: The Unicorn Army Expansion restricted his ability to 12 less than or equal, and reduced his Cost to 115. Kakita Shura: This isn't errata, but explicit definition - Shura may perform Origami Magic once per battle, and may choose which form from the list on her card. The effects last for two Turns. Kuni Yori: The Crab Army Expansion corrected Yori's Magic Skill to 4. Mirumoto Daini: The Dragon Army Expansion changed his TN to 9/8. Mirumoto House Guard: The Dragon Army Expansion changed their TN to 8/7 and their Cost to 26. Onis no jimen, Kaze, Mizu, and Taki-bi: "Lose 6 Honor for each Elemental Terror in your army." All of this model use the large infantry base. Oni no Sanru Pack: These Oni use the large infantry base. Shiba House Guard: Their ML is actually 6. Shiba Ujimitsu: His unit may not benefit from more than one occurrence of a single Spell at one time (his unit may benefit from Essence of Earth and Strength of Earth at the same time, but may not benefit from two castings of Essence of Earth, for example). Shinjo Yasoma: The Unicorn Army Expansion added the Yari Damage bonus (see The Ide Lancers, above), and reduced his Cost to 169. Shinjo's Thunder: The Unicorn Army Expansion reduced their Cost to 26. Signal Corps: The generic Signal Corps card released in the Crane Army Expansion should be a unit card-type, not a personality. No Honor is gained for generic Signal Corps models purchased for a Command Group. Striders: The Unicorn Army Expansion altered the maximum number of Striders to three units of no more than 20 models per unit, and changed their Cost to 11. Warlord Overlord Package: His Cost should read +100. Item CardsWrit of the Elements: This card may not be used during the Special Orders Phase. Hantei's Tessen: This Card should read "This personality rolls two Damage dice for each successful Attack (hit) when engaged in Close Combat keeping one of the Damage dice. The Tessen may only be used by a Matsu personality of at least Glory 4" Spell CardsThe Spell Cards abbreviated Spells in the interest of card space. Spells that must be cast during the Special Orders Phase began with "Special Order" Note that these Spells must be cast in the Special Orders Phase, but are cast during the Spell portion of the Phase, and are not otherwise considered Special Orders. Counterspell: Card text is correct, but it should have had a Kanji Strength of Osano Wo: Card text is in error - this spell must be used during the Special Orders Phase. It may not be used as a reaction to a personality/unit becoming spent. Tactical CardsRetreat: The Unicorn Army Expansion changed the wording to allow Retreat to be used on engaged units.
