Celestial Edition 15 will be in stores this week! This re-release of Celestial Edition features not only a full reprint, but also many extras. Included in each booster is an additional rare from select CE-legal expansions, and a Flashback card, featuring a famous card from the 15 Years of L5R. Starters feature a new fixed card, a Celestial Mempo for each Clan, as well as bonus rares, a Flashback card, and a new rulebook! All of CE 15 cards have been MRP’d to the current legal wordings (except for the Flashback cards which retain all their glorious original wordings, as confusing as they may have been!).

For those of you who want a sneak-peek at opening CE 15, L5Rchives has post a weblog of opening the first pack and starter, filmed at the AEG offices last week.

Welcome to Celestial Edition! Let me first say that the launch has been a worldwide success and we have you, the players, to thank for that!

New players are being introduced to Rokugan and old players are seeing the game as they did when they fell in love with it. I couldn’t help but grin when opening my Crane Starter and carefully thumbing through the cards, stopping to feel each card.

It is a new era.
