Not so tough now are ya? Are ya?!
The Scout

The Fan O'War is a melee weapon for the Scout. It appears as a large metal Template:W.

Hitting an opponent with the Fan O'War "marks them for death," which is denoted by a skull and crossbones icon over the target's head. After this, any subsequent damage dealt to the marked players are mini-crits. The weapon itself deals only 10% of the Bat's base damage.

The Fan O'War was released with the Shogun Pack, awarded in Genuine quality to players who preordered Total War: SHOGUN 2 on Steam before March 15, 2011. It is also available through crafting, item drops, or purchase from the Mann Co. Store.

Item icon Sandman.png Item icon Holy Mackerel.png Item icon Candy Cane.png Item icon Boston Basher.png
Item icon Sun-on-a-Stick.png Item icon Fan O'War.png

Note: The blueprint simply makes a Scout's melee weapon; there is still a chance of getting the Sandman, Holy Mackerel, Candy Cane, Boston Basher, or Sun-on-a-Stick instead. There will be approximately a 16.67% chance of crafting this item.
