Samurai concept

[(Psi)SeveredHead]

For 4e purposes, I think I would build a theme (or possibly several themes) rather than a class. A samurai could be anything from an archer warlord to a slayer with Unarmored Agility to a tempest fighter. Even a lazy warlord (Toyotomi Hideyoshi, I'm looking at you).

Can anyone please link me to the Sohei theme? This is the first time I'm hearing this.

Heh, there are pretty much no links nowadays. WotC swept everything offline except DDI subscriber-only material, and you can't create a new subscription to that anymore. You might find some kind person who has copies of all the dragon magazine PDFs, but such a person wouldn't be sharing them with anyone online, that would certainly be frowned upon.

You can still look in the compendium for options and it will tell you where to find things, even if you're not a subscriber - Sohei is in Dragon #404.

By the way, if you were *ever* a subscriber, you can go to this page on Wizards, log-in, and download all the Dragon/Dungeon magazines. Even if you're not a current subscriber - don't ask me why they made it that way, but they did...

Cute, I went to the page before, but I just assumed the login was deleted. I suspect its an oversight on their part, but frankly I doubt they're terribly concerned about people being able to access back issues of Dragon. It boggles my mind that they aren't all just freely accessible.
