Like strategy games? Like to control all the forces on your side? You’ll still have trouble even at the beginner level. Enough stats to increase/keep track of to kill a long winter with no NFL to watch. Koei does it best. Wish Gengis Khan was re-released for PlayStation.
He who wishes to fight must first count the cost. When you engage in actual fighting, if victory is long in coming, then men’s weapons will grow dull and their ardor will be dampened. If you lay siege to a town, you will exhaust your strength. Again, if the campaign is protracted, the resources of the State will not be equal to the strain. Now, when your weapons are dulled, your ardor dampened, your strength exhausted and your treasure spent, other chieftains will spring up to take advantage of your extremity. Then no man, however wise, will be able to avert the consequences that must ensue… In war, then, let your great object be victory, not lengthy campaigns.I have only played RTK 7,8, and 9. Out of the three, I enjoy playing this game the most. Why? you may ask, here’s why:1. You can load created characters from RTK 8 and have stats of 100!!! (You can then change the name if desired.)2. You can have up to 100 created characters in one city to begin with.3. AI is more difficult4. Easy to understand tuturial and manual.That’s my top three reasons for this game. I have read many articles relating to this game and have found out so much information about this game, so I have decided to write a story about it. I havent read the book yet. Whenever I have enough time to read over 12000 pages, I’ll do it.I do have a questions that I’m hoping someone will answer.1. How do you use the “Heal tactic”?2. Which of the foriegn tribes are the easiest to beat and how?3. Is it possible to.
It worked
RoTK IX breathes life back into the series. Instead of making an upgrade from RoTK VIII, KOEI took a lot of things from the older installments and introduces a new battle system and map.Keeping role-playing to a bare minimum, RoTK IX is full of action and battle.City management is made easy and direct, the results can be seen right away, and money and supplies are managed through one source, keeping the amount of time spent on city management to a minimum.Most of the time will be spent fighting off your enemies, taking new territory and defending against barbarian tribes. With different formations, new tactics, and real-time combat the game is very fast paced and enjoyable.The game difficulty has gone up considerably. The challenge campgains can be very hard, which is very refreshing for long time fans of the series. For novice players, the game might be too difficult, but for veteran players, this title is an absolute must-have.It’s hard to judge whether or not this is the best in the series, but to me it is certainly the best since RoTK IV, which I played into oblivion.I would recommend this title for any strategy lover or Three Kingdoms fan. More gratifying and intense than Dynasty Warriors or Dynasty Tactics, this game is truly one of the best in its class.
This game was and still is awesome to me. Much improved over the past versions and a really goo condition. A must for those that are a fan of the series and still owns a PS2.
I had the Game, back in 2002 or ’03? It’s not New to me, I like the simplicity of game flow much easier then other versions of the game.
Yes. Loved It
Some Scratches, but as advertised. Fast Delivery/Works Great!!!
First off, I was surprised this game came out already. It seems like only yesterday that I was getting into Romance of the three kingdoms VIII. I loved Romance VII and VIII for their ability to see the world through the eyes of a specific officer, which enabled you to have many different kinds of game experiences. This game however has chucked all that out the window. It’s as if the series is trying to return to it’s roots. You can only play as the ruler. Furthermore, if your forces are defeated the game is over. That’s a drag. In the previous two games you could still continue to play even if you were defeated,as a ronin or a common officer. There’s nothing more annoying than playing with a group of people and getting eliminated early on and then having to watch every one else not suck like you just did. I only mention this because this game is hard and it is easy for your kingdom to come down with a bad case of dead. The computer is far more aggressive in attacking than in previous installments and will attack immediately if they even sense a weakness in your lines. Not only that, but they will actively send reinforcements from other cities. (Defeating Cao Cao in the later scenarios is quite the task indeed.)The most annoying thing about the game however are the barbarian tribes. They add another degree of difficulty to the mix. I could do without them, that’s for sure.On the positive side,thestats have been simplified greatly. Instead of having gold and foo.
Koei’s Romance of the Three Kingdoms series has always been a staple in my video game collection. Ever since when the first Romance captured the essence of novel for the first time to today Koei has been pumping out a new version about every 2 years. RTK 9 is arguably the greatest version of the game released and here’s why.Since RTK 1-6 Koei has always stuck with the option of playing as the ruler in the game while adding better graphics, battle tactics and maps and various forms of military strategy with the game. When they released RTK 7 Koei decided to allow players the option of play as any character in the game, while an amusing experiment it doesn’t work for a variety of reasons. If you choose to play as anyone other than the ruler, you’ll find the game never progresses. The AI is not competent enough to use you when going to war or to go to war to begin with. They continued to try this route with RTK 8 and while it made some improvements to battle design and graphics it still suffered for a very slow and uninvolving game.When RTK 9 was released we were presented with a true return to Koei’s routes of ruler playing alone however adding more real time strategy to the battles. Before, with the exception of RTK 6, most battles were turn based. Here you have battles that take a few turns to even get started, your units need time to reach their destination. This gives defenders an opportunity to build up before fielding units and therefore gives the game it’s true.
