When you mess with the best, you go down with the rest.

The space used to explain every single characters' defection would be wasted for me since I never use a character on the wrong side. I ALWAYS use the correct force for my character. And the Guan Yu thing is a little out there, too much so for my taste. And I just realized that kingdom musou mode is a lot more deep than you think. There are so many "tales" stages that you can branch it off, and you have 2 different branches for chapters 5 & 7 for each force. Which would make 3 or 4 play throughs with the same force completely different. Wei Tales 1: Eliminate Zhang Jiao! Wei Tales 2: Guan Yu’s Escape Wei Tales 3: The Yuan Family’s Pride Wei Tales 4: The Stalwart Ma Chao Wei Tales 5: Lu Bu’s Revenge Wei Chapter 5a: Fall of Wu OR Wei Chapter 5b: Fall of Shu Wei Tales 6: Dong Zhou Lives! Wei Chapter 7a: The End of the Three Kingdoms OR Wei Chapter 7b: The End of the Three Kingdoms ^That's just for Wei, Shu & Wu also have a lot of branching missions. Along with the main missions, you can branch off and do these battles. Or, you don't have to. That doesn't seem to be the same to me. ------------------ Now that I've re-reviewed kingdom musou mode, I like it more than I did before. I forgot about how many ways a story can branch off into a different battle. I remembered that if you're given more than 1 battle to play on a certain chapter and you don't play all of them, there will be consequences for not doing so on the main battle. - Like in chapter 2 (Alliance Against Dong Zhuo) if you don't play at Si Shui Gate, Hua Xiong will appear in your main camp during Hu Lao Gate and attempt to defeat Yuan Shao (since you never killed him at Si Shui). - Chapter 4 for Wu. The battles are Xia Kou, Defense of Nanman, & Chi Bi. If you don't play at the Defense of Nanman, You'll have less allies during Chi Bi and Zhou Yu will say "We'd have more allies if not for the Nanman threat." That's just plain cool. I forgot all about this aspect of the mode, and it's appreciated. With branching battles, "tales" battles, and battle ramifications, KOEI put more effort into kingdom musou mode than I originally thought.
