Oriental

As with the Middle Eastern grouping, the Oriental grouping is meant to provide a variety of weapons for flavor. It wouldn’t feel right for a samurai warrior to equip himself with a pole axe or a pilum. Once again, the weapons list covers a lot of time and territory; the DM is free to rule out any weapon she doesn’t feel is appropriate for her campaign.

Oriental armors were almost always varieties of lamellar, brigandine, or scale, even though they were known by different names. The characteristic armor of the samurai was usually a fine suit of metal lamellar armor.
