[edit] Gameplay
The overall objective of the game is to re-unify China. The player takes on the role of a historical figure from the book Romance of the Three Kingdoms, referred to as an officer, to achieve this goal. There is also a function to create original characters.
The flow of gamplay is more similar to Sangokushi VIII than to Sangokushi IX, with the player having several possible ranks besides a ruler, each of which alters the players' options considerably. Ranks are fluid during gameplay; while a player's choice of officer initially sets rank, it is common to be promoted, demoted, captured, or even to rebel and form a new force.
[edit] Stages
There are seven starting scenarios, with four more added in the Power up kit.
