  Quintessenital Samurai (d20)
Honour is a harsh taskmaster, forcing the samurai to hold himself to a standard of conduct many find too demanding.
Though the sting of death is not as great in fantasy campaigns where life can be restored by the gods, many samurai find themselves unwilling to return from the land of the dead when they fail in life, preferring instead to remain far from the world - and their shame.
Despite their great responsibilities and code of honour, the path of the samurai can be very rewarding.

According to CMG however, the minutes of progress meetings show the trust had been satisfied with the standard of the work done by CMG.
It also said the work carried out by CMG was independently certified by the trust's architect and approved by a monitor from the Heritage Lottery, which is supporting the project.

 Allatech v Construction Management Group [2002] NSWSC 293
The Report identified legal proceedings that had been commenced by CMG for recovery of its claims, and said that although the directors believed that the litigation had good prospects of success, funding for the litigation was not available from the company's resources.
Allatech has cross-claimed against CMG for the amount which it alleges to be owing under the building contract and the civil works contract for the Blue Hills project.
Counsel for CMG contended that it would be necessary to resolve in the present proceeding the same issues as were before the Court in the Construction List proceeding, because the question of standing would necessarily involve the determination of the question whether Allatech is a creditor of CMG.

CMG objected to Allatech having access to the Advice on the ground that it was protected by legal professional privilege, and the issue of access was deferred for the time being.
In his Honour’s view, it would be unfair to permit the defendant to rely on "selectively produced" advices to prove the three propositions that it had put in issue (at paragraph 29).
In its defence CMG contended that it had received oral advice from counsel to institute those proceedings, in about April 2001, well after the report to creditors had been issued and considered.

His Honour said nothing about the fact that if the prosecution does not succeed at trial when it ought to have, there is no appeal.
Nor does he address the fact that many criminal appeals result in orders for retrials due to very minor matters which seem most unlikely to have made any difference to the verdict of the jury, the tribunal of fact, which does, after all, have the advantage of seeing the witnesses give their evidence in person.
