just think of the time the game is set in, why should the dev bother. btw, are there even any female generals in the armies of today? :)

There are a large number of Female Generals today in several armed forces.

However, most are not in charge of or trained in front line operations. Supply, engineering, medical, and other support roles tend to be were they are most common.

The total war series goes with the timeline so the chances of seeing a Female General is nill unless they decide to do a Total War in the future or modern timeline, avatar maybe since multiplayer don't really got to follow anything but in campaign don't expect to see it in any of the traditional Total War periods.

The agent tables can be edited; replacing a lot of info for the general's with the Geisha's model and sounds will make generals appear and sound like a geisha wearing swords/with an army banner, but that's only on the campaign map. Once you go in the actual battles it will be the usual General/bodyguard unit. I'm sure that's editable as well, but I can't get the unit editor to work, so I haven't been able to play around with that yet. Giving the general's unit the samesoundset as Onna Bushi would at least make them sound female though, then it's just a matter of swapping heads out for female ones in the Unit Editor, if someone can get that to work)

It would be pretty easy to make, but with the following problems: unit card would still have a male general's face on it, the general would still have some male voices on the campaign map such as when seiging/retreating. ALL the generals would be women, not just some of them. Daimyo (and maybe sons/family members as well) would still be normal though. I'm sure the portrait can be changed and probably the remaining sounds too, but I haven't played around with it enough to be sure.

that is a good news

The Problem is, that Generals are randomized from a pool of about 140 models and respective portraits (RoTS+S2+FoTS). Even If one make a Female General unit with different equipment and stats, The Game will randomize it from a pool of about 140 models and portraits; risking for some disturbing failed Traps...One must make All generals be female if want to be safe for it...

Now, It is possible though to make a Female Hero unit that with unique campaign model (like Foreign Marines) and Battlefield general Abilities...But that technically not a General, Its just another unit...
