Knights vs. Samurai!o Europeans designed their armor to defeat
swords; the Japanese designed their swords to defeat armor
I’m the tank of the Middle Ages –
slow and clunky, but tough to bring

I’m fast and lightweight, but
that’s because my armor is mostly
for show.

Peasants:Divided into several further
classes:o Farmers – most
important because they provided food
o Craftsmen – second because they at least made something
o Merchants – lowest because they profited from the work of others
Don’t hate the player…
