Armored Onna Bugeisha – An Elite Reskin Standalone Sub Mod
Hey fellas. This is a mod per request.
PLEASE READ / INSTALL ORDER = If you use this mod as well as my primary Elite Reskin, this mod must load first or else you wont see the changes.
—> Just tick the box for this mod here first — Launch SHogun 2 — then exit — then tick the box for Elite Samurai etc and launch. And you’re all good.
One little thing: There WILL be inevitable clipping because of the female hairs. I can’t fix it because of how the game just is at its core. No mesh override of helmets unto heads. So yeah. Just so you all know 🙂
It features 1 single unit overhaul = The Onna Bushi Heroine unit (Gozen’s Hime Heroines) and it’ll give them a nice paintjob like my main mod does, BUT this mod here will go further and add masks and helmets to them.
On top of that I managed to find 6 new faces ( 5 of which are added here, 6th one caused clipping issues but its present in my main mod wihtout helmets) and they look damn good.

Now. Few details.
Nr 1: Always run this mod FIRST before any other graphical overhaul mods you might have. You can do this via a mod-manager or simply use the default mod manager from CA, tick the mod box, run game. Then quit and enable the other mods.
Nr 2: If you are unhappy with my designs or such, dont worry. I will include a tutorial sometime here where I describe exactly what you gotta do to EASILY mod this pack.file and manually edit out the stuff you dislike.
Nr 3: I hope to get in touch with Bullgod soon. But if I never do, I’ll upload a version of Takeda Shingen, using his models to finally put a mask on him.
Something I’ve dreamt of for years but have never been able to do, and nobody have done it publically.
I hope I can get his permission as requested but he has abandoned his work soon 3 years ago and I dont know the status of his work overall anymore.
Time shall tell and lets hope 🙂
This mod is a combination of the efforts of others. I’m merely a creative editor that finally got some dreams come true.
Credit goes to us all. But primarily you guys. Thanks for helping me with the framework, the inspiration and fantastic original designs.

Also. I recommend the following mods to enhance / complete / tailor your experience here:
Nr 1: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?540561-Daimyos-amp-Generals-MOD-(updated-feb-26-2016-reupload) By Bullgod. His amazing mod turning generals into legendary figures visually as they are historically.
Nr 2: My fixed Archers of the Wind mod made by Makuyi. It’s a truly wonderful unit and if you’re an onna bushi lover like myself, you’ll enjoy it. I got an update coming to that mod soon. Fixing a few things and possibly adding variation.
Nr 3: The Legendary Samurai Mod by Kaplan [MA]. –https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1138807386 — You can totally use both my mod here as well as his because this mod only affects Elite units.
So, if you download his, but load mine first. And then his afterwards, you’ll see all units in game have their textures altered to be more armored and such. Whilst my elite edits here remaining intact.
Just make sure that my mod loads 1st 🙂
Nr 4: Shogun Ashikaga mod. — https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=160740527&searchtext=shogun+ashikaga — Why? because its models are damn epic and I love to play around with it. But hey, your call 🙂
Nr 5: The Onna Bushi mods which you can easily find on workshop. I use Onna Bushi Katana and the Onna Pack mod that adds in onna bushi matchlock, archers etc. However take note. The collection mod wont read my changes. For that to happen you gotta edit a few things within that pack.file which I’ll explain at a later date in a tutorial. Simple stuff 🙂
Nr 6: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=324174639&searchtext=heroines The_Yogi’s face edits to his Onna Bushi troops. I asked for permission to borrow the textures but I’ve yet to get a reply. Just a disclaimer. He’s the real artist here. I just mixed them together:)
= https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=117316251&searchtext=onna+bushi Katana unit version
= https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1178487465&searchtext=onna+bushi Pack versioin
Nr 6: Whatever the hell you want that doesn’t overwrite hero units and generals bodyguard + Onna Bushi. 🙂
I’m happy I got around to do this. And I hope you, dear reader, will enjoy the results, using them, as much as I have putting these fantastic works of art together as one.
Happy gaming and have fun !
Let me know if you run into issues.
Here is my tutorial on how to make edits. 🙂
