Each volume offers one class for oriental campaigns (though they're hardly a match for just picking up Oriental Adventures and/or Rokugan, but I suppose they have been updated). Furthermore, there seems to be one generic class in each book as well. Swashbucklers, Scouts, Shamans, etc. all hark back to very basic, simple concepts which have usually just required picking up certain feats for already established classes. Then, in a third category, there are these high-fantasy classes that don't really have any real-world counterparts...which includes Hexblades, Spellthieves, and so forth. Of course, all of these notions are debatable, but there does seem to be a pattern so far. I've generally found myself more attracted to the second category of classes as they have far more practical and far-reaching applications.</blockquote>
