User blog comment:Undead RVD/Battle of the Women of War! Tomoe Gozen vs Boudica/@comment-5795750-20130709114559

BG1's "Cat Fight" Edges:

Close Range: As a slashing weapon, I think the Tachi gets this because of its curvature and weight making a swifter kill

EDGE: Tomoe Gozen

Medium Range: The naginata is the more versatile weapon of the two since it is like a polearm and can stab and slash whereas the lancea, as a spear, can only stab effectively

EDGE: Tomoe Gozen

Long Range: Easily, I would give the edge to a bow over a sling anyday

EDGE: Tomoe Gozen

Special: Not much info on the pugio but looking at pics of it, then the pugio has the bigger blade and as it is short, it is more concealable

EDGE: Boudicea

Armour: Samurai armour made of steel vs wooden, iron and leather protection? Yeah, this is a no-brainer

EDGE: Tomoe Gozen

X-Factors: Average of 88 for Tomoe Gozen; average of 84 for Boudicea

EDGE: Tomoe Gozen

Overall Winner: Tomoe Gozen gets this - she possess weaponry made of a superior material, is a better trained warrior and I believe Gozen's finesse and experience as a samurai can trump Boudicea's superior strength and brutality (PS I suddenly feel like this is a kinda rehash of Samurai vs Viking of sorts)
