I'm a bit torn on the 2-weapon fighting. On the one hand, it's not appropriate to assume all samurai wield an off-hand weapon. OTOH, with D&D's current weapon system, that's the only sensible way for someone using a bastard sword to fight. Samurai Jack and all the other samurai out there wielding their katana two-handed basically wasted a feat; they should just be using great swords. The OA samurai doesn't really rely all that much upon the Rokugan clan content. I've used'em for a couple years now without it. His customizability just comes from having a decent list of bonus feats (even without clan feats) and decent skill options, both of which could've been transferred over to CW. And I think a lot of folks would rather have a class that's scary because he's a badass warrior, not scary because he has boogeyman powers layered on.</blockquote>
