[QUOTE="hejtmane, post: 6856383, member: 6799371"] I will go threw and look at my old Oriental Adventure Book it is 1E though (I have the 1E Unearth Arcana) I am old school came up playing mostly D&D and AD&D1e. Played a little 2e not enough to care and 1 session of 3.5 before moving to 5e My question is how are you going to handle the Katana see my issue is D&D has always used strength but the Katana is not a strength based sword (Yes I have trained in Japanese sword arts before and martial arts) it is actually a finesse/precision sword and should be a dex based sword. Yes I thought about adding the sword in my world already so I been thinking about this quite a bit. Since the Katana is 2 handed sword and some kendo arts use two swords and wield it 1 handed.
