Might be a noobish question but i need a clarification to the following question.

If i have a glory of the shogun in play (or my opponent or both) and i attach a weapon from my hand via my stronghold's ability does that mean that i will be able to draw a card from Glory of the shogun plus the card for the end of my turn ? Thanks in advance !

Glory Of The Shogun text Until the game ends, equipping is a Battle/Open action (for all players), and after the first time each turn each player attaches a card with a base Gold Cost of 5 or more from his hand, that player may draw a card.

The Spider's Web text After your Personality enters play: You may attach a Weapon to him from your hand, paying all costs but, once per turn, paying 4 less Gold if he is a Kensai.

Yes, if it was the first time you'd done it that turn, you would draw a card (or two, if both you and your opponent had resolved Glory of the Shogun) immediately after attaching a Weapon of 5 or more base Gold Cost via The Spider's Web's trait, and you would still get your normal draw in your End Phase.

Even though Glory of the Shogun modifies the Equip ability to Battle/Open, the draw from it is a separate effect and is not dependent upon you using it.
