 * Articles must be written in your own words so as not to be considered plagiarized. This goes beyond changing a few words or changing the structure of a sentence. Your sentence structure must be dissimilar from that of the original author; anything else is plagiarism. Cronje (talk &sdot; contribs) 23:55, 1 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Ok I'll try and fix the page. Thanks btw. Terrorblades  - This is recorded live at  10:20, July 2, 2012 (UTC)

Bushi
So, wikipedia says that "bushi" is just another term for samurai, which makes sense&mdash;bushido and all. OA3e says on p. 202 that it is just a name for the Fighter class. On p. 17, it also seems to refer to specific barbarians. Is it more specifically defined in 1e and 2e? Or should it just be a redirect or disambiguation page? ~ Lhynard (talk) 01:23, June 6, 2016 (UTC)


 * Oriental Adventures for 1st edition treats the Bushi as a distinct class, unrelated to Samurai. It says bushi are masterless warriors, that they're mercenaries, bandits, or wandering swordsmen (so basically the typical adventuring fighter). The book makes Samurai a subclass of Cavalier, and Kensai, Oriental Barbarian, and Bushi as subclasses of Fighter. Kara-Tur: The Eastern Realms uses these classes, and sometimes gives local names, but the Bushi class loses its flavour, and is treated as more of a generic Fighter. So yes, the Bushi is a distinctly different and unrelated class in D&D. — BadCatMan (talk) 01:59, June 6, 2016 (UTC)
