Summary	0012098: Ryu is way too expensive
Description	For both of the other factions the basic 'Unit Pickup' mythological token is by far the first myth token I play in any given game to cure minor imbalances, which is possible because they only cost basic resources and are not too expensive to be used early in game. Ryu as the only Unit Pickup of the Japanese faction fails miserably in both categories as it costs a fairly late game resource (Jewelry) and is insanely expensive considering their effect: 8 Jewelry == 24 Diamond and 32 Iron! For a (presumably) early game token! Chances are that by the time the Japanese faction even comes close to being able to play this there is very few need to do so. I would propose changing it to only require Diamond and maybe some Iron instead. Although even charging diamond for it might still be too much for it to be of any real use. Maybe change its cost to around 50 Iron? That would still be costly but manageable...
