...... What's all the fuss about enforcing posters in every forum on correct name order...? Hey, I use to write my last and first name Hayes, Ismael in class. Ok back on topic. Two new characters makes it 90 characters now. However, more problems with getting everyone some story interaction. We'll see how Koei will tie these characters together in the story. :ph43r: |

I believe it's 88 now. Without the addition of these two the count was at 86. Anyway, can someone tell me where to find info on Taigong Wang. I already know enough about Kiyomori but nothing on the other guy. |

^No, the 2 new characters were already added to the tally and it adds up to 88 at the moment. A few people have already mentioned this throughout the ROTDL board. Edit: Oh, Gtown beat me to it! His link was already linked in this topic or another: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jiang_Ziya |

Er...are we even sure Da Ji or Orochi will be in this game? I realize the game is kinda named after Orochi...but I wouldn't be surprised if Koei kinda..omitted him. |

Well Kiyomori is trying to revive him so it would make the story that more interesting if they did. Besides it would be kind of strange to only have one or two people on the Oro side when the good guys now have 3. @LDZ: Thanks. I see the problem was that ingame his name is different than that on the article. |

The information is vague but Koei have his eyes, as they were with Warriors Orochi, displayed on the official site as well as his name mentioned in various area's. His successor was also mentioned. Plus, Da Ji has only been seen in a pen giveaway competition on the official site thus far. The two will no doubt make it in the game, IMHO. |

What do they call him in the scan anyway? Taigong Wang or Jiang Ziya? It would be much easier if they called him the latter. |

You can google translate his name into simplified chinese and search for info on him there. |

You sneaky little investigator. I can honestly say this game is on the top of my list for anticipation. All I can hope for is a lotta God like cut scenes and hysterical comments.

Yep, definitely Da Ji and Orochi return. I've got a hunch Orochi could come back lookin' different since he was "killed" afterall... Taigong Wang a.k.a Jiang Ziya I wonder how the English version will be? Which name will they pick? And will Taira no Kiyomori become Kiyomori Taira? *cue the surname debate from the last few pages* Most likely next week or two weeks from now we'll be hearing about two more characters, one Chinese origin and the other Japanese origin like this time? Then it will be 90.

He's called Taigong Wang in the scan. It would make more sense if he was called Jiang Ziya, as I've actually heard of him before. I even recognized the name Taigong Jiang a bit, but not Taigong Wang. |

Taigong Wang is what they call him in Japan whilst his translated name is Jiang Ziya, and will be what he's called in Warriors Orochi(EU and US). If you were to put Taigong Wang in the wikipedia search it would automatically translate his name for you. However, the other characters name will not, and I haven't heard what his English name is as of yet. |

No word on if the other generals from the first one will be returning? Hog Nose and the crew? I know there are Boars...but I loved Hog Nose...he was my champion. |

OK, so I guess he'll be called Jiang Ziya in the EU and US? Imagine character interaction between him and Jiang Wei... Early on I predicted he would be called Kiyomari Taira, but seriously I've already touched that with BlackKite. |

@TheRyanHimself: I try to please. Nothing really escapes my grasp here, I could be the KOEI Warriors encyclopedia. Some can find that scary, but that's not my intention. I've found most information though, thanks to BlackKite, and can tell you that as far as I'm aware the Hog Nose have not been mentioned or seen yet. @Xalfrea: Yes, and BlacKite did state that he is a Chinese semi-myth, so there's your answer. Edit: Sorry if I'm too slow in replying, but due to PM, MSN and other sites I'm acting a bit frantic at the moment. Just make sure to check the update sticky topic, that's where new information will arrive. |

Nice to make for each country, 2 very new characters, i only wished they had also 1-2 female charactrs teaked. And what is the meaning of Monsters? Has Orochi now new figthers? I think, than need Fu Xi and Nu Wa, a angel team.

Monsters are the evil enemies, Thai Ma. They will be another version of Orochi's officers. Boars that stand on two legs; you could say that they are or will resemble minotaurs. |

Can anyone tell what the thing standing below the boar is? I'd swear it looks like another kind of ninja type troop. |

I actually thought that was Hanzo...right? Edit: At closer look, it DOES look like Hanzo but with a different shaped mask/helmet. So I may be wrong. Disregard my stupidity. |

Kind of reminds me of the demon ninjas from the Onimusha series. If they are some kind of uber cheap enemy then I'm gonna be really pissed. |

I do not believe it to be so. To me it just looks like the leg of anothers back legs, as if they were centaurs and were to be kicking with their legs in motion. It would also be irrelevant to have Hanzo featured in this scan without being picture in an actual screenshot. |

I don't know. In the picture it clearly has it's arms folded, is standing on one leg with the other in the air, and appears to be wearing some kind of mask/helmet. Plus you can clearly see it's armor and belt as well. I don't think this one is a centaur/minotaur type of enemy. |
