Well, if you have a Terminator type hero, he could punch through the dude and tear his heart out. Or if you had a vampire guy. Or a barbarian.

Can't we all remember that minifig everyone has, but never really uses in a non-randomized army?

Spider-man! You know, guy who can punch and kill you if he felt like it.

Of course I just give him all those close combat abilities and count his hands as weapons, because spider-man should never use a gun.

Not to mention shuriken, grappling hooks, nun-chucks, etc.

Katanas suck! Yes, they look kickass, but they're not. A longsword is much better.

Katanas can only be used for slashing. A longsword can skewer, hack, etc. A katana is also unable to parry as heavy attacks as a longsword can without breaking.

Have you ever actually held, or even attempted to swing a longsword?

Useful tip for those of us who have lots of broken mini-fig hands: Fit them onto your ninja/kung-fu warriors. They make it look like he's doing a chop.

Katanas don't kill you as often when they break. They're made to sphincter into the enemy when they break.

I read it in a webcomic, surely it must be true?

yes you only use katana's for slashing, and only with the few inches at the end of the thing too.
Act first, then think, then try to find a way to cover up the horrible mess you made.

What? Lies! A katana is a cutting weapon, designed to impact, and then pull through. However, you can stab! They are also way stronger than longswords were.

I saw a documentary 2 weeks ago and it said that katanas are suited for weak people, because they do not need much force to cut something; on the other hand, longswords' strength depends on the wielder's physical strength.
