This ties into the Apocalypse World Hack Project thread, but I figured I'd start a new discussion. Two people have posted up character/class sheets for Samurai in the Dungeon World Tavern G+ community. You can see them here and here. I haven't had time to really dissect them (and I'm currently at work) but there are things I don't like in both takes. Basically, both feel too "awesome for awesome's sake" for me. Samurai are more than just Fighters with katanas and laminated armor. Thoughts? Especially for the Samurai World project.

But katanas are clearly the most devastating weapons in existence, with modern nuclear weapons a distant second.

I am so sick of the god damn geek fan boy katana love. Sure, those swords were fantastic FOR CUTTING THROUGH THE SHIT ARMOR SAMURAI WORE AT THE TIME.

They kind of look like movie Samurai to me...
