Misleading

I was looking at the recommended sets of ten from the directions (something I haven't done in quite a while), and began to notice something odd.
In "Best Wishes" (Intrigue) we have Shanty Town into a Torturer chain.
In "Beginners" (Prosperity) the kingdom is: Bank, Counting House, Expand, Goons, Monument, Rabble, Royal Seal, Venture, Watchtower, Worker's Vilage.
In "Blue Harvest" (Cornucopia) we dont even have the card Harvest. Not even Farming Village!
In "The Good Life" (Prosperity) We have Mountebank.
And this is only a few...

You do know what Blue Harvest refers to, right?

So was Donald just being cute, or is there a Jedi hiding on the table somewhere?

Best Wishes has Wishing Well and some combos for it. Beginners has simple cards, for an all-Prosperity set. Blue Harvest has four reactions, they are blue, and Cornucopia is a harvest-themed expansion. The Good Life, uh, it has Prosperity cards.

"Blue Harvest" also seems to be a nod to the during-production fake working title of Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi (also on Star Wars Wiki).

I know! It's the thing the blue farmers with the blue dogs do!

Bomb, Cannon, and many of the Gunpowder cards can strongly effect gameplay, particularly in a destructive way
