Yeah ! This Game really seems to be awesome ^^ The Trailer is great (Thank you for showing us this video) I adore when Da Qiao appears to save the others generals, she destructs all with her fans, lol ^^ The news screenshots are cool too, we learn who come to rescue Zhao Yun. |

Maybe so, but by then, it would be a little late... The game's set to release on the 21st, next week, in Japan. And I'm sure for places like Hong Kong, China and other select places Asia's east coast, it will be released even earlier, probably this coming Monday at the earliest (which is certainly a boon to importers like myself ;)). So by then, whatever KOEI's official website could stand to offer would be a bunch of moot points, thanks to people who would more than likely been able to play this game hardcore as soon as early next week. By then, the site would have outlived its purpose in the eyes of many... |

-I certainly hope you can play on Orochi's side (you only said Wei, Wu, Shu, & Sengoku... which worries me a little) -If the pure meat of this game is just musou mode, then I prolly won't get it. Looks like same old same old SW2 & DW5 but with things switched around some. -LOL at the fact that all those flippin' Sengoku characters are all crammed into one first level. -Intermission? Do explain, I haven't played "SRW/SD G Gen games".. |

Alright...let's try this...for those who have never played "Super Robot Wars" (SRW) or "SD Gundam G Generation" games... Have you played any other S-RPG series worth mentioning? Disgaea and its ilk, FFT, Tactics Ogre, the various Fire Emblems and etc., etc.? If yes, then think about those little story blurbs which usually progress with character portraits talking to one another, as a means to expand on the plot, which all take place between the actual scenarios/levels. That's basically what an "Intermission" is. However, if none of that applies to you, then think of them as just another means for the various characters to interact with each other, outside of the context of FMVs and the in-game cutscenes on the battlefield. That, to put it bluntly, is also what an "Intermission" could entail. |

Her name is Daji and she is of unknown allegiance.She is the fox spirit from chinese mythos.She destroyed the Shang Dynasty.Most likely on Orochi's side.People think she is still out to destroy China. |

Well, actually, we don't know if she's a NPC, or just a character that you may be able to play or unlock to play later on. But we'll see in a few more days, in any case. |

you forgot to mention (Chin reminds me that) that koei used her before for another game mystic heroes... she was also evil in that game but the stranger stuff was, her french name on the game it's Sheva not Da ji :s. Anyway, I love her outfit in orochi, I hope we would be able to play her, she seems strong and cool! |

There are many screenshots you haven't included, like the ones in the voice event section, some look pretty funny, like Hideyoshi thinks Shang Xiang look like Nene.

So it's become Super Musou Wars, eh? AWESOME. Koei's really outdoing themselves with this, even though using a tried and true formula for SRPGs is a bit on the lazy side anyway, but hey, that's Koei. How it works is that you start off with the four groups as selectable storylines to play through. Shu and Sengoku are Anti-Orochi forces, while Wei and Wu are Orochi. You start with a select few characters in the beginning scenario as the story unfolds (for Shu, it looks like Zhao Yun, Xing Cai, and Shimazu Yoshihiro, while Wei is Cao Pi, Zhang Liao, and Xu Huang.) As you proceed through stages, you gain the assistance of new allies and unlocking new stages, sometimes bonuses as well. In SRW, doing key things will also unlock secret characters for use as well (possibly Daji?) Daji is not part of Orochi's force, as I thought. She is a third party, but it seems she allies with the Orochi group at times for her own gain. During intermission, you select your deployment of three characters from everyone who has joined you to that point. A couple other things I noticed: Zhu Rong is actually addressing Yukimura by name in one of the mid-level screenshots. Likely this means she's showing up in the Sengoku storyline and allies with Yukimura for one reason or other. No, not all stages are copied directly from DW5/SW2. Several are demonized versions of old levels, and there have multiple screenshots of at least one new castle level in a volcanic location. Simply from how they're displaying the backgrounds and other screenshots, the main character for each storyline are: Shu - Zhao Yun, Wu - Sun Ce, Wei - Cao Pi, Sengoku - Nobunaga. For Wei, their first stage is at Kuzegawa, fighting as Orochi forces allied with Daji against the Rebels. For Wu, their first stage is with the Orochi forces against the Rebels at Mt. Ding Jun, and it seems like Ieyasu and Hanzo have been made to fight for Orochi too. For Shu, their first stage is Escape from the Orochi-held Ueda Castle, with the assistance of another force (I don't recognize the kanji.) For Sengoku, their first stage is fighting the Orochi forces at Jiang Xia, with the assistance of Guan Ping's forces (though I think they're actually rescuing him?) |

I tell ya's,if Koei comes up with more ideas and use it in something thats not for pure fandomness like this game,it could really be a good game. Back on topic,if Daji is not part of a group then she really is the Kotaro of MO. |

I know, right? Speaking of which...that probably isn't a bad title for localized releases out of Japan, now that you mentioned it. Maybe "Super Musou Warriors" in order to give it as recognizable a name as possible? I dunno...
Ouch...my poor Wu dudes are forced to play the part of unwilling bad-guys, it seems. I'm hoping that there will be at least a few branching storyline paths that will not only allow them to restore their honor, but give the Orochi the come-uppance it deserves.
I was also inclined to wonder about something along those lines. They said that this game would end up be tougher than the average Musou game, after all...maybe they're taking another cue from SRW, and including a "Skill Point" system for excellent performance? I could also imagine having to possibly go out of your way to save some one, or fight off some one, in order to fulfill some other conditions...
Interesting choices for some of the "mains", to say the least. How did Zhao Yun get to edge out in front of any of "the trio" to be main for Shu? Nobunaga for ALL of Sengoku? Could be very interesting, but just quite odd, at least from this outset... And also, I'm glad to hear that Da Ji is not strict follower of Orochi. It just wouldn't seem right for some one who was made famous from her role as being a seductress and an overall schemer to go to the beat of any drum besides either her own, or Fu Xi/Nu Wa. |

NO, that is not Chen Cang. Nothing like it. And what the heck DO you want then, Jin? It's a crossover of familiar things/places used for a new off-the-wall story. It's just that simple. Then again, I guess you wouldn't know since you haven't played games executed in this fashion before.

I assume you mean the screenshot with Dian Wei in the lava level. Yes, that is the Chen Cang map, but I'm guessing there will be something new or different put in it besided the lava look. |

We must be thinking ofdifferent screens because the NEW level I'm talking about is the demonized one with the large castle in the center. It was shown in the trailer as well. |

Yeah I know I can't include every single screenshots to the site, because basically they just look the way too similar so we have to pick some of them... Like a battle, map, option, 2 players mode, event movie and so on

Having checked all of KOEI Warriors' screenshots, none of them feature new maps. Dian Wei's level, with lava (?) across the floor, is indeed Chen Cang (check the map in the corner and compare to DW5). I'm checking through the trailer: 1:00 - Da Qiao, Zhao Yun and Sanada Yukimura interchange at Tedorigawa/Kusegawa. 1:17 - Xu Zhu, Ina and Lu Xun demonstrate the different categories of character specials 1:32 - Oichi at Hasedo 1:33 - Musashi in the top-right corner of what looks like a new level 1:34 - Xiao Qiao in the same level 1:35 - Zhao Yun, mounted in the same level, being pursued by Maeda Keiji 1:36 - Xiahou Dun in Edo Castle's main keep 1:36 - Lu Bu using his C1 at Odawara Castle 1:37 - Sun Quan in Edo Castle's main keep From the trailer and the KW screenshots, the level from 1:33-1:35 is the only new one I've noticed. It might be a compund of other levels (as in DW5:XL's Legend Stages), but no stage exactly like it has appeared before. If anyone has any more screenshots, or links to other screenshots, magazine scans or trailers which might shed light on these stages, please contribute! |
