About the game
The Samurai Class deck includes: Samurai deck of 20 cards, class board, and 2 tokens. Because AEG was involved with the game they added a bonus deck. AEG let their Vanguard volunteers vote on what that deck would be and they chose Samurai. So all Kickstarter backers received a FREE bonus Samurai Class deck with each copy of the game ordered through the campaign.
