I have just uploaded two little updates to Hansa and Samurai.

Hansa. The running score now keeps track not only of sold goods but also market booths VPs, so at the end of the game there is no need to count the markets on board: the visible score is the true final score. This feature will not be available in the current games but only in the new ones.
I have tested it but not extensively, so for the first games please pay attention the score table and let me know if you see something wrong.

Samurai. As you may know, choosing a random hand will almost always give an advantage to your opponents :): not only you will often have a bad starting hand, but they will know it, and take profit of this information (this is especially true in 2-player games). For those who still want to start with a random hand, there is now a way to hide this inconsiderate choice to the other players: checking the box 'Don't display my random choice' will generate in the log the same message as if you selected your tiles. Good luck (you will need it :)).

I highly suggest not taking a random starting hand for 2 player games like Mabi says. Your guaranteed to lose to a good player. 3 player and 4 player games you should do ok though.

For those of you who had no ideas on a good opening hand stategy (like me), read this:

I'm not sure I've got one now, but I do think I may experiment with a few ideas.
