Forgive me for sounding obtuse, but do you know of TSR's Oriential Adventures, by Gary Gygax?
Honestly, I don't know of any at the moment being designed. I have resigned myself to the fact that I'll be using the aforementioned book should I have any oriential needs.

One of my big disappointments with the "green book" line from TSR was that they never came out with a medieval Japan supplement. I'm half-way working on an Anglo-Saxon England sourcebook for another company, though, simply because I want to do the Anglo-Saxon/Danelaw age.
I don't have to have everything perfect... just good enough that the seams don't show on the monkey suit. -Me
I like that. Not going to use it because I like mine better, but I do like that idea. -Treebore, summing up most home designers' philosophy

That would have been nice, especially since they never addressed the setting/culture/genre in 2nd edition.

No, Ronin, they never did anything for C&C as of yet. I wouldn't mind something along those lines. Until then, I'll be using TSR's offering.

We were playing an L5R game, and I actually used the OA family charts to help flesh out my character's family... learning how they made their money (Yasuki), and the like, and giving me a better handle on where they lived.

They did a Complete Ninja red-cover soft book, that is not far from what would have been n oriental green-book.

That would be great.
