These Japanese unique units were well known for their outfit of war and their

weapons.  The samurai wore padded armor which was well used against arrows but

would easily end up getting sliced by a sword.  They
                                    would follow their lord

under all cost and if he was killed in battle or captured it brought great shame

to the Lord's lands and often ended up in the capturing family
                                    to take control

of that lord's lands.  Lord Nobunga, spelling will vary, was captured in battle

with some men.  A rescue mission
                                    was launched around the time he was executed

with his men, beheaded.  The men launching the rescue mission had already taken

out 2 out of the opponents three allies
                                    who were protected by the opponent.  The

men thought of shame when they learned that their Lord had been killed, but of

course it would have been more shameful to retreat. 
                                    So they continued to push

forward and ended up collapsing the opponents and conqueroring there lands.

The Samurai was also extremely strong against other Infantry
                                    units due to their

funnily shaped swords which would knock out the opponents swords spelling their

doom.  Of course other opponents unique units fared
                                    little well against these

trained juggernaughts.  The Samurai went through vigorous training to overcome

almost any obstacle and this proved them to be most powerful
                                    against opponents.

The Samurai should be remembered through strength and honor not decite and

tratorship.  Remember these brave warriors for being
                                    and never given up,

remember them for being their to cover your backs.
