Coming Soon From Passport Games "Tokaido Special Edition"

Passport Games has announced the release of Tokaido Special Edition.  This is following on the heels of the the successful Kickstarter campaign.  This edition of the game has a slated release of November of this year.  The components of this game are stellar and it should be worth the extra investment for someone who doesn't own a copy of the game already.  Also included with this edition is the crossroads expansion. As always release dates are projected but may change due to factors outside of the publishers and distributors control. Read below for the publishers description of the game.
