Romance of the Three Kingdoms II (0)

Overview

Romance of the Three Kingdoms II ("Sangokushi II") is the sequel to Koei's popular strategy game , based on a book that depicted the events of a turbulent period of Chinese history during which the three Kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu fought over the nation of China after the collapse of the Han Dynasty.

As with the first game, the player assumes the role of a military warlord (either from the novel, or custom made) and must expand their lands while dealing with matters both domestic and international by selecting actions to perform each turn. They can select from six specific starting points during the conflict to join, with certain warlords and nations being more or less powerful depending on the circumstances of the war at this time.

Several new additions are made to the sequel, including the ability to intercept enemy messengers, relying on advisers to predict the outcome of an action and a system which lowers if the player continues to do reprehensible things and may even convince allied officers to defect to the enemy.
