[1] William A. Barton reviewed Weapons and Castles of the Orient in Space Gamer No.
[1] Barton commented that "For players of Oriental games such as Bushido or Land of the Rising Sun who want a great deal of detail, this book should prove most valuable.
For others with only a passing interest, it probably isn't worth the investment.
