Musou Orochi Artbook; I can't be the first to have noticed....

Pretty sure there isn't a thread about this yet, or even one involving the artbook. If there is, kindly direct me to that thread and I'll merge this into it.

Anyway, I was taking a look around good ol' dokuganryu.com, when I saw there was now a Musou Orochi section under scans. Having never seen this section on the site before, I decided to give it a quick peak, when I saw something very interesting...

My man, Saitou Dousan is in one of the scans?! O_o WTF? Now looking at some of the other scans, they had artwork of Kenshin and Shingen in costumes very similar if not identical to their Nobunaga's Ambition models, so this could be a screw up.... but.... anyone have any info on this? Like for instance, can you confirm this image was in the artbook if anyone here has it? Otherwise, discuss.

This artbook scans were posted a while ago (I have the Nobunaga one on my PC). Yeah, they look pretty amazing.

I'm guessing it's a hint to SW3? O_O

There's a Musou Orochi: Maou Sairin Guidebook topic, but not one for Musou Orochi, IIRC.

I have no idea if there are any differences between the content (other than the new characters of course)

But the Artbook and the Guidebook are 2 different things, aren't they?

On the KW Site, it shows the image DJ posted under the Databook Scans section for Warriors Orochi.

:wacko:

Databook = Guidebook = Artbook ???? :wacko:

Saito Dosan is most likely a characters who was supposed to become playable (or unique NPC) in SW1/XL or SW2/XL but was dropped off for some reason. Maybe KOEI has other plans for him in future and who knows, we might actually see him in SW3.

Artbook is different from the guidebook. Artbook contains special artwork for the characters(which makes them look all the more pretty) while guidebooks and databooks have extra data on which how to use the characters and what not. The artbooks usually have a small intro on the character and thats it

You learn something new each day. US never sees any of this (unless you import), so sorry if I caused any confusion earlier :unsure:

And that sucks. I love those artworks and would love a copy of any of those artbooks. But unless you import or are overseas, you're SOL.

If only your prize for the slogan was the DW6 artbook ;) (Metal plates are still awesome enough though :P )

But yea, I hear what you're saying. I saw the scans of the Musou Orochi: Maou Sairin Databook and the amount of info in there that most of us will never see is amazing and saddening at the same time -_-

Wait, there are more than just the Saito Dosan art scan? If there is, can you provide the link to them please?

Edit: NVM, I found them.
