The Geishas was one of the best unit in the game, and the movies...oh how i liked them.

Boys want quantity, while men seek quality.
Mere external facts cannot serve as a ground of reasoning.
What we are able to learn is greatly dependent upon what we already know. Different people with different amounts of information will UNDERSTAND different.

There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all argument, and which cannot fail to keep a man in ever lasting ignorance. This principle is contempt prior to examination.

The name didn't exist. Prostitutes most definitely did, it's a minor issue of semantics.

Were prostitutes able to kill highly-trained ninjas?

I'm sure prostitution has existed since the begining of times
Still can't believe, that Geisha, out ninja, a ninja.

Even though prostitution has been around since pre-history, I wonder if before geishas that’s all they were? I presume what geishas were had developed over a longer period of time than the name?
edit; In early seventeenth-century Japan (long before the word geisha was ever used), the predecessor of the geisha, called Oiran; was a combination of actress and prostitute and worked on the stages set in the dry riverbed of the River Kamo in Kyoto. The line between actress and prostitute was blurry, as the women would perform erotic dances and skits for their audiences.

I just didn't like the Super Geisha that plowed through a family tree like a sunami. It sorta ruined the game for me when all the strategy and combat could be undone by those damned evil Geisha. The only defense was your own Geisha and that was not to my liking.
Oh yea I remember now, god I hope its not like that. I equally didn’t like killing other factions family members, it just meant you wouldn’t get as good battles.I just didn't like the Super Geisha that ploughed through a family tree like a sunami

Yea its all good if done right, but for game-play you don’t want yours or other factions best generals to get killed, its way better to have the honour of defeating a them in battle.Well women can be very powerful.

Ah yes I remember now. Still you then have to produce a geisha for each general, and if I remember correctly they cost almost as much as a unit.Well you can always play like that if you want. Have your Geishas protecting your generals by merging them with the stack so they are less likely to get assassinated and don't use them on the enemy
i think that makes it annoying, there needs to be some medium by which perhaps only your worst enemies can use them against you [rather than all and sundry], and they have to be specific to a given purpose, which once passed means they no longer have the validity to attack.
or something like that.
