The Fan O'War is a promotional melee weapon for the Scout. It is a large metal Template:W.
This weapon deals 90% less damage than the default Bat, making it an inefficient means of killing enemies. However, hitting an opponent with the Fan O'War "marks them for death", denoted by a white skull and crossbones icon appearing over the target's head. Upon being marked, the target hears a distinctive sound, and a skull icon appears on their HUD. During this period of 15 seconds, any subsequent hits taken by the target will be mini-crits. Only one player at a time may be marked by this weapon. If another player is hit with this weapon whilst another is marked, only the most recent one will be marked for death.
This item was awarded in Genuine quality to players who pre-purchased Total War: SHOGUN 2 on Steam before March 15, 2011.

Bugs
- Spies who have activated the Dead Ringer will have the skull above their head even after feigning death.

- In some rare cases the "Marked For Death" skull particle will appear to the player in first person mode.
Unused content
- There is a set of unused hit sounds for the Fan O'War.[1]
Trivia
- Template:W were used by samurai officers in Japan for means of communication with their troops. They are also used by judges in sumo wrestling competitions.
- "Fan O'War" is a reference to the Template:W, a British Template:W expression for powerful warships used between the 16th and 19th centuries.
- The Marked for Death icon that appears on the HUD is the Heavy's skull shown on the "Anatomy of a Heavy Weapons Guy" poster and the Rasputin achievement.
- The Fan O'War was originally created for the Soldier.
- The Fan O'War's description is written in Template:W format. However, unlike a traditional haiku, which follows a 5-7-5 syllable format, the description follows a 5-5-5 format. This is strange, as several other items in the Shogun pack also use Haiku, but in those cases they do follow the traditional 5-7-5 format.
