(Follow-up to my preceding post)
Today, a gallery of all pieces (& cards) came online. Thus the missing
piece is the following:
#14. 'Koma' looks like a sort of knight in a shell/stone armore. Moves
to any of a line of 5 squares in front of him (good defense?)
Power: 'Sealing' - For 8 Gyullas, send any Maseitai of your choice (even
your own) from battlefield to the Keep(Seal), Koma must be sent to
Graveyard.

The pictures seem to be from the final mass-production version, which went
through the unfortunately expected process of 'cheapification'. The
biggest changes are:
- noticeably less detailed Navias (especially noticeable since the
pictures of the original promotional pieces are still used on the cards)
Maybe a little paint touch-up would improve them, but the sculptures look
less detailed too...
- a redesigned board which look like it just might be a piece of paper
folded in four (I always wondered how they would fit the original mat,
even rolled up, into the boxes on display) Regardless of the physical
aspect, I liked the original design better (but that can be helped too)

But all the other parts, incl. the Maseitai still look very nice, and of
course none of the above detracts from a hopefully interesting gameplay.
