RE: [DL] Samurai

[Reemull <reemull@yahoo.co.uk>]

I agree that there weren't any special rules for Samurai - but I was
sure that Great Maze box set included a  group of Samurai enforcers
(The Seven?) who served Kang/Iron Dragon.  I'm pretty sure there were
stats for them too.  Not got my books with me to confirm or provide
page numbers - sorry.
