Hi,
I played old games too. I used to play RTK2 and always played as
Liu Bei and always had Zhuge Liang as advisor. I would simply send
false letters to lower a general's loyalty and then recruit him. So
easy......it became too easy after a while.
After recruiting all the great generals in Charm, War, Int, etc,
there's nothing else to do, well except the occasional war if you
like to. Or if u want to save time, just recruit the governor and
the whole province is yours without the hassle of war.
Of course there's also the occasional revolting province and
warring states, as a result of your covert intelligence.
It all happened because Zhuge Liang has a 100% accuracy in his
advice.
OK do you guys know the 'Province 10' trick?
This trick is like this......u know when u invade Province 10 u
will get a prize, and that prize can increase a stat, like Charm,
or Int, or etc.....well, every single time u invade and win, u will
100% get a prize for sure. So the trick is, invade and win as many
times as u can. How to do this? Just encircle Province 10 with your
territories. Invade all the neighbouring provinces. Then leave
vacant an adjacent province. Encircle this province too. Then
invade Province 10. Don't kill all the generals, release them. They
will go to the vacant province. Then invade them there with all ur
Province 10 generals, making Province 10 vacant. Again don't kill
them all, release. They will go to Province 10. Next month, invade
again to Province 10 and win a prize. With this ping-pong method,
you will drain every single prize available. Ping-pong them until
there's no more prize.
I like to get Int-increasing prizes so when Zhuge Liang dies there
are others with 100 Int.
Well another thing I'd like to do is corner Cao-Cao in a province
and kill him. That saves a lot of time sending false letters to his
generals.
