L5R Honoured Event
Over the weekend London hosted the L5R Honored event. This was an invite only event similar to the Kiku Matsuri event. There were 100 competitors along with guests who came to spectate. At the end of the event, we had 3 more Hatamoto’s who were undefeated at the end of the five rounds.
During the games, Andy from Imperial Advisor and Jack from Sake House Brawl commentated on the feature matches. This was live streamed by Asmodee games on Twitch, but for those interested in checking it after the event the stream wasn’t automatically saved. Luckily there was a local save and the team at Dark Sphere games in London just uploaded the stream onto their YouTube channel.
This is highly recommended viewing. The organisers made sure each clan featured at least once and Andy and Jack are highly entertaining to listen to during the games. They also got interviews with attendees and spent some time talking about the new game and the learning curve needed to get up to speed.
