Perhaps being a master in all weapons is a poor choice of words.

Samurai are meant to be well schooled in all weapons, capable and confident fighters with any weapon at their disposal. If it's a broken table leg or even a torn shred of drapery, it's expected that a Samurai make the best use with what he has. How to translate this into the game? I don't know. A true Samurai class in SoA would be an epic undertaking.

How would a Samurai have enough points to put stars into Single and Two Handed Weapon style as well as all the weapons he would be expected to use? Perhaps a Samurai kit should have a Paladin or Ranger type restriction of only having 2 stars per weapon, but, gaining a kit bonus of gaining +2 to hit and +2 to damage. Or something along those lines. Maybe even +3 as I don't think that's unreasonable. Give them a star in SHWS and THWS for free. Or do it Swashbuckler like and give them a plus to hit and damage every few levels.

Or, shoot for the corny cheesy pop culture angle and turn them into Captian Cusinart. =D
