Ofcourse, this game isn't above the Command & Conquer series but it still comes close to it in my eyes. Awesome game that allows you to go different ways in the game and make your OWN time line! You have choices on which side to chose, who to kill (rich or poor)(good or evil), and it's just a whole lot of fun! It is full of unreal brutal warfare, in-depth strategy, and chinese clans, what else could you want? Well, it would be SWEETER if there were mind-controlled zombies but Oh Well! Graphics of a next generation PC game are un-questionable! (As long as you have a good PC and a good Video Graphics Card!!!) Gameplay is definitely very addictive! "EVERY WARRIOR HAS A NAME... AND THEY WILL ALL DIE FOR YOU" -=STORY=- You are in control of a warrior named Kenji in ancient China and you have been chosen to lead him to his destiny! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- -=CONTROLS/MISC.=- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you don't know the controls of a strategy game then you shouldn't be playing these types of games! Is that clear?! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- -=CLAN=- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- -=DRAGON CLAN=- ...More to Come... Villagers who follow the dragon and are in rebellion with Shinja's clan to regain their freedom from Shinja's control over their land. - Peasant Hut - Rice: 50 Water: 0 - Raises Max Capacity of Rice and Water - Dojo - Rice: 150 Water: 50 Requires: Peasant Hut - Spearmen - Target Range - Rice: 125 Water: 75 Requires: Peasant Hut - Archers - Alchemist Hut - Rice: 100 Water: 100 Requires: Peasant Hut - Chemists - Watch Tower - Rice: 75 Water: 0 More Towers Require: Town Square/Keep - Bath House - Rice: 100 Water: 200 Requires: Peasant Hut - Geisha - Town Square - Rice: 200 Water: 300 Requires: Bath House - Stable - Rice: 150 Water: 150 Requires: Peasant Hut - Horses - Shrine - Rice: 150 Water: 75 Requires: Dojo - Upgrades Skills - Well - Rice: 200 Water: 0 Requires: Town Square - Lots of Water - Spearmen - Rice: 30 Water: 30 Requires: Dojo - Archers - Rice: 30 Water: 30 Requires: Target Range - Dragon Warriors - Rice: 30 Water: 30 Requires: Dojo & Target Range - Chemists - Rice: 30 Water: 30 Requires: Alchemist Hut - Powder Keg Cannoneer - Rice: 30 Water:30 - Kabuki Warriors - Rice: 30 Water: 30 - Samurai - Rice: 30 Water: 45 -=SERPENT CLAN=- ...More to Come... Original clan of our hero, Kenji. Kenji's father was the 'Serpent'. -=LOTUS CLAN=- ...More to Come... They look like monsters! With the help of the WOLF Clan, LOTUS clan is trying to gain control of what Kenji's father left behind. Ussually don't like outsiders in their town. Controlling the north-western province with the help of a 'Warlock' as well as all the villagers with his help. -=WOLF CLAN=- ...More to Come... With the help of the LOTUS Clan, WOLF clan is trying to gain control of what Kenji's father left behind. Ussually unprepared for what is to come and are don't mind strangers. Controllling the north-western clan with 'General Garrin' and 'Vetkin'. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- -=WALKTHROUGH=- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- -=KENJI - DRAGON CLAN (Rebellion) 'Walkthrough A'=- (YIN-GOOD) As you start a new game you will see a cut-scene telling you part of the story and the history. Kenji is currently a member of the serpent clan and he will narrate the cut-scene movie. Listen carefully because you'll have a make a choice next which will be the result of how you feel about the cut-scene. After the movie, a villager is being chased by two warriors of the Shinja clan. They stop by and tell Kenji that he is worthy of becoming a member of their clan and he must kill his share of villagers in order for him to become a member. -=The Choice=- Now you must make a choice! Will you join the Shinja's band of bandits or will you fight for the helpless villagers keep their land? Let me just tell you that joining the Shinja's is going to be MUCH easier than helping out the rebellion. But you decide, Are you Yin or Yang? Your choice will decide the future of the land! If you want to join Shinja's band all you need to do is attack some of the villagers and kill them. If you want to join the rebellion, you must go north of where you are to a village and kill all the bandits that are attacking the town and the villagers. You must chose to help out the villagers if you want to follow this 'Walkthrough A' or you may follow the 'Walkthrough B' of this walkthrough if you wish to join the Shinja's Bandits. After you kill all the bandits another cut-scene will start which will tell you more about Kenji's heritage. You will learn that Kenji is going against his ancestors by helping the villagers. -=OTOMO: An Old Friend=- You will learn a another secret! Kenji killed his own father!!!!!! Otomo will tell the villager to back off and tells him that Kenji was the one who saved them from the Shinja. Afterwards you will learn that Wolf and the Lotus clans are tearing apart what Kenji's father left behind. Now watch the rest of the movie which tells and shows you who controls the certain provinces. To stop Wolf and Lotus, Kenji is going to need Shinja's help but to get Shinja's help he must defeat them with the help of all the semi-weak villagers. Now it's time for you to make another choice. Chose to help out another group of villagers by attacking the north-eastern province or you may chose to go for the big fish by attacking the north-western province. The southern province is where you currently are stationed in with your friend. Chose to help out the north-eastern province and free the land from Shinja's control. -=Defeat Shinja's Thugs=- You will now be in the north-eastern province and in control of Kenji and Otomo. Move northward and you will find a group of villagers. Use them to gather rice and water from their proper sources and then build two 'Dojo' after you have enough rice and water. Now train your peasants to become spearmen in the 'Dojo'. After some time, a group of Shinja's bandits will attack from the eastern side to guard well and keep your cool. Don't worry they won't be much of a challenge. Now keep building up your small army by sending regular peasants to the 'Dojo' to be trained to become spearmen. Later you will be able to upgrade your men's strength and health. After you've got the largest army possible (upto 20 soldiers) head east, cross the river, and then head north-east. Keep going and kill all the archers on the way. After a small mountain range you'll come across a small Shinja base. Attack and destroy! A small cut-scene is shown after that base is destroyed. TIP: Keep Kenji and Otomo ALIVE!!! -=Defeat the Big Fish=- Now you will be on another map. Objective here is to destroy Shinja's keep and defeat him. Kenji is almost certain that he will join them afterwards because Shinja has been loyal to his family for many years and he is still (supposedly) loyal. Head north a bit and build your base at the next area where there is rice and water. Get your only villager to build up a few 'Peasant Huts' to the east of the body of water. Then build a 'Watch Tower' to the west between the two mountains that go north and south on either side of the path that goes north. That's a strategy to keep all the Serpent Warriors out of your area while your army is being built up. Build a 'Dojo' or two then build a couple 'Target Ranges'. You can now not just train spearmen but you can also train ARCHERS now. So after you enough resources train about 12 Spearmen and make the rest of them Archers. As soon as you have a couple archers put one on the 'Watch Tower' so that any enemy that comes to your base is taken out by the archer on the. NOW THE BEST THING: After building a few archers and a few spearmen, send a half of your spearmen to be trained in the 'Target Range' and send half of your archers to be trained in the 'Dojo'. After they are trained, you will get the ULTIMATE 'Dragon Warrior'!!! After your army is complete, and you have 20 men that are strong, head out north to attack their base. After you destroy all their buildings another larger building will appear which is the 'KEEP' of Shinja. After destroying the 'Keep', Shinja will appear to fight you so you must attack with full force. -=SHINJA: A Man Feared By ALL=- When he is defeated a movie scene will start off with Kenji, Otomo, and Shinja. You will learn a few more secrets about Kenji and his family. You will also learn that the 'Serpent's Orb', which Kenji is after, is at the 'Swan's Pool' and the 'Geisha' People are the ones protecting it. Northern part of the map will be revealed in this cut-scene and you will learn to the north-east is a province which is controlled by the Lotus clan and to the north-west is a province controlled by the Wolf. You will learn that 'Wolf' love to fight but they are still afraid of the name 'Serpent' even after 7 years after his death. Now you must chose your path again by selecting one of the three new provinces available to your choice. Chose the north-western province. You'll notice that Shinja has joined you and he'll be your new team member. -=Route to the Lotus Clan=- As you arrive at the north-western province, you'll learn that the 'Wolf' clan are out of town today but the 'Lotus' clan are here today. You'll learn from the guard that the don't like outsiders much and they will attack you. A new person is introduced in this cut-scene. 'General Garrin' who is so high in the eyes of Kenji but has gone down very low in the eyes of his people. You'll learn that 'Vetkin' is his new messenger who Garrin sends to the town to do his work for him. (I'm guessing he is one of the lazy guys) So after the cut-scene move northward and follow the path and cross the river. After crossing the river, keep moving westward and you'll be attacked by a small pack of wolves but they won't be a problem for the strong 'Threesome'. Now keep on the trail and you'll come across a fellow villager who will tell you more about 'General Garrin' and that he prefers foreigners like the 'Lotus' Clan more than his OWN people. After talking to the villager, keep on the trail and continue on the trail when it turns towards the north. Continue north and cross the river again to the west. You will encounter 4 men of the 'Lotus' Clan they'll tell you that the time of the 'Serpent' Clan is over and they'll tell you to begone. As always we don't give a CRAP about our enemies so attack and KILL! :) After you defeat all four of their men, a cut-scene starts. A villager will say that he is at our command because we attack the 'Lotus' Clan. Now 'Vetkin' comes to the where you are and tells you talks to you in the movie. Listen to the short conversation and 'Vetkin' says he'll see us dead because our heroes attacked/killed the a few men of the 'Lotus' Clan. -=Defeat the Lotus=- Time to kick some 'Lotus' butt!!! Build a couple of 'Dojos', build a 'Target Range', and don't forget to use the 'Stable' that you already have from the local villagers. To get more horses, have a couple of your villagers in the south go east and find a couple of horses for our heroes. Train the horses and have our heroes ride north into where the yellow team is at to meet up with 'General Garrin'. He'll be your ally. After a few minutes or so, Vetkin will attack from the north of where the yellow team is at. Just use your regular men to attack him and kill him. It's going to be almost easy but be careful not to let any of our main characters die! Afterwards, rebuild your army and when you see 'General Garrin' attack the 'Lotus' to the south-eastern corner of the map, send you men and the heroes on horses to attack the 'Lotus' with General's army. This battle will be semi-hard because of the 'Brawlers' that the 'Lotus' Clan have. They are strong so have a big army. You'll be allowed to train upto 30 people in this mission so get them ready for battle. As soon as you see 'General Garrin' and his army attack the 'Lotus' Clan, you too should move in on them and attack them by 'General Garrin's' side. Just keep in mind that it will be game over if your Hero dies! Don't let that happen! Retreat if your heroes are in trouble!!! Keep at it: Attack and Destroy!! -=GARRIN: The Fearless Horseman=- After you defeat the 'Lotus' Clan and destroy all of their buildings, another cut-scene starts off. You'll see all the buildings of the 'Lotus' Clan burn down. Kenji will say that he doesn't want to be like his father and destroy everything. He doesn't want to take over any land or attack other clans. What he wants is the 'ORB' which is located at the 'Swan's Pool'. Garrin will temporarily join your party! -=Defend the Swan's Pool=- As soon as you get to the Swan's Pool you'll see that they are being attacked by men of the 'Lotus' Clan. Go help them out and you'll learn that they are after the 'Orb' that Kenji has been looking for all along. You will be asked to protect the 'Swan's Pool' from the 'Lotus' Clan. Go and protect the Swan's Pool with your heroes. Don't worry they won't be killed by such a small group of enemies so just use them to kill all the enemies. Afterwards another cut-scene starts off. Some guy in red goes saying that he is the 'Dark' and Kenji becomes worried. But now the 'Dark' is gone so keep defending the 'Swan's Pool' from other attacks that will become stronger by the wave of enemies that keep coming. So keep deafeating them and use the Geisha people to heal your Heroes, the Archers, and the Dragon Warriors. After all the waves of the enemies are over, a cut-scene starts off with Kenji talking to a Geisha. You'll learn that the guy in red was a thief but he wasn't able to steal the 'Orb' because it is not in the 'Swan's Pool'. That Geisha hid it in 'SerpentHolm' under a rock near the 'Front Pool' of 'SerpentHolm'. In the same cut-scene you'll learn that Kenji's people are being attacked by the 'Lotus' and he must protect them because they have fought for him so hard. Well, it's time to go and wipe out all of the 'Lotus' Clan and save your people from death!!! -=WIPE OUT THE LOTUS CLAN!!=- Notice that Garrin has left your party!!! :( (I want more heroes on my team!!!!! Don't you?) You should have Kenji, Shinja, Otomo, 2 Dragon Warriors, & 2 Peasants! Kenji has finally figured it out! The ONLY way to protect his people from the 'Lotus' Clan is to COMPLETELY wipe them out and leave nobody standing! Move everyone to the middle of the map where you see lots and lots of water and there is rice everywhere. Build your base there because there is 'Lotus' people all over this map and you'll have to 'WEB' up your men so that you can attack in many different places at once in different groups. Start off by building about 6-8 'Peasant Huts' and have build up your peasant population. Have about 3-5 peasants gather water from the lake and have 6-8 peasants gather up rice. After you have enough resources, start building the Dojo, Target Range, Stable, ETC. as needed/wanted. But beware this mission is harder than all the rest because you are surrounded by 'Lotus' Clan buildings and you will be attacked constantly after your base has been set up! Put archers on the southern and the northern sides of the roads so there are in interruptions from the enemy. Don't forget to put archers on the eastern side of your base as well. No need to put any archers or soldiers on the western side because there is a huge lake protecting you from any attack from the west. Keep gathering, training, building, and keep your heroes alive!!! Keep a watch out for your heroes because they'll wonder off trying to kill the enemies and soon they'll be in enemy territory where they'll be killed right away by hordes of 'Lotus'. So check on your heroes every now and then. Is that clear? TIP: Remember to recruit the horses from VERY southern part of the map and from the VERY eastern part of the map. You'll be able to get about 10-12 horses if the enemy doesn't recruit a few from the southern part of the map! (Horses are very useful for our heroes AND the WEAKLING Geisha!) -=Wipe out the Lotus: Attack 1=- Now build a 'Guard Tower' to the North, East, and north-east. Have your archers move in north to their smaller base and have them destroy all the enemy buildings. Keep using Archers to attack their base and use Geisha's to heal the archers from behind. Continue to blow up their buildings, BARBARIC STYLE! -=Wipe out the Lotus: Attack 2=- After their whole base has been destroyed, rebuild your army by making about 12 archers, 8 dragon warriors, 3-5 Geisha, and the rest spearmen. Head your army eastward and destroy their base & all of their buildings to the east of you. There will be a hard resistance so be careful your heroes don't die. Have the Geisha's heal all your foot soldiers. -=Wipe out the Lotus: Attack 3=- Because you used the Geisha's to heal your soldiers in the second attack, you should have enough soldiers to be able to take out the last base on this map. If you don't have atleast 5 units left including atleast 2 Geishas, then you must head back to you base and rebuild your army. You don't need many units to attack the last and the final base at the bottom of the map because it is just going to be VERY easy. After that is done, you may head south through the middle path and attack the last and the final base on this map. Now head southward and you'll see another road branch off down southeast. Follow that path and you will come across a VERY, VERY small base and the last of the of 'Lotus' Clan members. Attack them with full force and use the Geisha to heal all your allies. After you've defeated all the Lotus Clan member, a cut-scene movie will hit your screen. -=Next Stop: SerpentHolm=- In the movie, it's night time and Kenji's men are moving towards SerpentHolm. You'll see from far away that there is smoke coming out of the city. The 'Dragon' from the 'Dragon's Spire' is telling them to hurry! Kenji and Otomo will start talking and will start talking about what is happening. You will find out that SerpentHolm has already been captured and there are LOTS and LOTS of enemy soldiers guarding it!!! After another movie scene, you will be left just outside of 'SerpentHolm' with NEW/Powerful Allies and your heroes. Your new objective is to recapture this city and make it the new 'Dragon Clan's Republic'. -=Battle for SerpentHolm=- You'll find yourself at the southwestern corner of the map with Kenji, Shinja, Otomo, Two 'Chemists', an archer, a spearman and a Villager. If you think the previous battles hard, don't even think about attacking the main bases with your current army because you won't stand a chance! Now head to the south-central part of the map where you see the rice fields and a river running right next to it. Build your base there with about 8-10 Peasant Huts, 2 Dojo, 2 Target Ranges, 2 Chemist Huts, 2 Shrines, 2 BathHouses, 1 Town Center, etc. in THAT order. There are two ways on that river that are near you so build Guard Towers on each and put lots and lots of archers close to them. Don't put your heroes or your spearmen there because the MOST ANONYING Lotus clan will send 1 soldier and then when one of our spearmen starts attacking it'll run off into the wild. Your spearmen will follow him into the wild to kill him, and VOILA! That same spearmen will be ambushed by about 10 of their archers and killed right away. So keep an eye out and don't let any of soldiers or your heroes wander off! Both the Lotus Clan and the Wolf Clan are on this map. The Lotus on the North-East part of the map and the Wolf on the South-East. But the good thing is that they both hate each other and they'll fight each other on the eastern side of the map. Lotus is OFCOURSE stronger than the Wolf. TIP: They'll send hordes of soldiers every few minutes so make sure to be on your best guard. -=Take out the Wolf Clan=- Build about 12 Archers, 8 Samurai Warriors, and the rest whatever you wish. Have a few of your archers and warriors go north from your base and take out the enemy hut from the larger rice fields. After doing that put up a Guard Tower on the next river crossing. This will prevent the enemy from using that path to attack you from behind. Now after the defense is ready, have your soldiers cross the river and head southward towards the Wolf Base. Take out the Wolf base first!!! Don't think about attacking the Lotus yet because you'll have two POWERFUL enemies if you don't take out the Wolf first. Wolf are a little weaker than the Lotus and they won't put up a whole lot of fight. Don't be surprised if you see the Lotus attack the Wolf in their base. Attack the WOLF!!! Keep attacking and destroying their buildings. Don't be surprised if you units get taken out quickly, just send in more units and use the Geisha to heal your allies and make sure that the Geisha don't get engaged in battle because they'll die right away. This will be pretty hard to just stick to the strategy and don't let any of your heroes die. After you have defeated the Wolf, believe me, you'll be glad that you lost so many of your men because the periodic attacks on you will decrease by HALF!!! -=Take out the Lotus Clan=- (MORE OF 'WALKTHROUGH A' WILL BE ADDED THIS WEEK!!!) (MORE OF 'WALKTHROUGH A' WILL BE ADDED THIS WEEK!!!) (MORE OF 'WALKTHROUGH A' WILL BE ADDED THIS WEEK!!!) (MORE OF 'WALKTHROUGH A' WILL BE ADDED THIS WEEK!!!) (MORE OF 'WALKTHROUGH A' WILL BE ADDED THIS WEEK!!!) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- -=KENJI - SERPENT CLAN (Shinja's Bandits) Walkthrough B=- (YANG-EVIL) As you start a new game you will see a cut-scene telling you the story and the history. Kenji is currently a member of the serpent clan and he will narrate the cut-scene movie. Listen carefully because you'll have a make a choice next which will be the result of how you feel about the cut-scene. After the movie, a villager is being chased by two warriors of the Shinja clan. They stop by and tell Kenji that he is worthy of becoming a member of their clan and he must kill his share of villagers in order for him to become a member. -=The Choice=- Now you must make a choice! Will you join the Shinja's band of bandits or will you fight for the helpless villagers keep their land? Let me just tell you that joining the Shinja's is going to be MUCH easier than helping out the rebellion. But you decide, Are you Yin or Yang? Your choice will decide the future of the land! If you want to join Shinja's band all you need to do is attack some of the villagers and kill them. If you want to join the rebellion, you must go north of where you are to a village and kill all the bandits that are attacking the town and the villagers. You must chose to join the Shinja if you want to follow this 'Walkthrough B' or you may follow the 'Walkthrough A' of this walkthrough if you wish to help out the villagers. MORE OF 'WALKTHROUGH B' WILL BE ADDED AFTER 'WALKTHROUGH A' IS FINISHED! MORE OF 'WALKTHROUGH B' WILL BE ADDED AFTER 'WALKTHROUGH A' IS FINISHED! MORE OF 'WALKTHROUGH B' WILL BE ADDED AFTER 'WALKTHROUGH A' IS FINISHED! MORE OF 'WALKTHROUGH B' WILL BE ADDED AFTER 'WALKTHROUGH A' IS FINISHED! MORE OF 'WALKTHROUGH B' WILL BE ADDED AFTER 'WALKTHROUGH A' IS FINISHED! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- -=HINTS/SECRETS/CHEATS/TIPS=- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- -=DRAGON CLAN=- - ALL OUT ATTACK - - When attacking enemy use half of your men to destroy building and the other half to kill the enemies and protect the men destroying building from other enemies. - WAVES OF SPEARMEN - - Try to send waves of 5-8 men to attack their base every few minutes. This will lower the chances of them attacking YOUR base. Then later have an all out attack using the 1st strategy in this section. - INVASION - - Build up a few Spearmen, a few Archers, and the rest Dragon Warriors. Divide your army into 3-4 groups and add a few men of each type in each group and try to make them equal. Have one group attack from the east, the other from the west, and so on. This will confuse the enemy and most of them will probably attack one group so the other groups can attack the buildings or attack from behind to kill them easily. Having half of your army attack the buildings and the other half attack warriors is a GREAT strategy. - RECRUIT THE HORSES - - Almost every map will have horses in the area for you to recruit. They are brown colored on the map and you'll be able to see them even if your unit isn't in that area. So you should build a stable and have your villagers recruit the horses before the enemy does. Because it will be hard for you to stop the enemy after they have enough horses to send large hordes of enemy units. - BEST WAYS TO UTILIZE THE HORSES - - Have your heroes ride the horses so they will be able to destroy more buildings and kill more enemies. - Geisha have low health so have them ride horses and they'll live longer. - Archers riding horses are a great advantage when the enemies want to have a short ranged battle. - Dragon Warriors would make great horse riders at close range combat because they'll do a lot of damage at close range battles and will last way longer. - HERO's DEATH??? - - Did you know that if Kenji dies it's Game Over? - If any other main hero dies, it's not game over, they'll rejoin you in next mission!
