Re: How (un)realistic are Street Samurai?
Street Samurai
are the urban "professional" soldiers who fight in the unofficial corp wars. I have played a # of them over the years.
and even Shadowrun didn't outfit them with swords, but spurs.

They are not professional soldiers, but call them 1 step better then a gang banger.
