What if Chen Gong is added to XL as a clone of Zhuge Liang or Sima Yi and won't get decloned till Emires, where he will get the Emei Piercers....just like they did with Pang De. :shifty:
Koei would never do that, impossible :hmph: . Especially considering Gong's popularity is going to dominate Guo Jia and even Wang Yuanji in future popularity polls :shifty: .

To me the pierces are a little too acrobatic for Chen Gong. If they got rid of the acrobatics then its golden.

Since they're already bringing back old weapons, maybe they'll just give Chen Gong the daggers Gan Ning had in 6. They could make the moveset more about stabbing than slashing to fit his personality. His musou could involve extra daggers hidden in his sleeves to.

When you think about the folklore about Zhao Yun's wife playfully poking him with a needle one day and him dying from it I can see the weapons going to Ma Yunlu. They have a needle like appearance to so that only adds to the fuel. :lol:

Still hoping for maybe Lady Bian though. :pray:

Omg, really? Imagine if they made the Emei a playful weapon instead of the badass thing it is now. To me though, if these aren't Gong's they're Lady Bian's for sure!

Gong is a strong candidate for me as well do to his appearance and his sleeves look perfect for hiding the piercers in them for something sneaky. :shifty: So that's 3 good candidates in my book. Crap, why did I have to remember that folklore now I'm hoping if Ma Yunlu shows up that she would have that well thought out weapon. -_-

But does Bianshi's character really fit the brutality of the piercers? Isn't she supposed to be a nice/elegant lady?

Yes, but she was also one not to take any mess. Not enough that she would be stabbing people in the head and such so I guess not. :P But this is a battlefield after all so such brutality would be needed would it not? The Emei piercers do have a elegant movement to them.

Or they could play with the idea of how Cao Cao and Lady Bian met since nothing is known about it in history and have assassination involved but that would run into Noh territory which I'm sure some would not want.

Yeah, I also think Bianshi should have a less brutal weapon to fit her past songstress status, maybe an erhu or a zither. i imagine the Emeici going to women like Lady Liu or Lady Cai.

I've decided that puppets would be ideal for Chen Gong. But it may not be possible for it to happen...

I think its interesting how most of the girls in Wei have musical instruments as their weapons, where Wang Yi is the only one with an actual weapon.

having Cao Caos wife fight with an Erhu, while it would be nice, would just feel off. Why not have members of other kingdoms wield music related weapons as well?

also I noticed something interesting, anyone else notice that Zhenji is the only lady in Wei to be added in a main installment? Cai Wenji was added in a spin off, DWSF2. And Wang Yi was added in an XL game. I wonder why they haven't bothered adding Wei females in main installments after Zhenji?

I like CaiWenji's weapon as a Erhu better than the harp (maybe dlc weapon skin?) :wub: .....Seeing how Sima Yi's wife has been added, i wont really be surprised if SunJian, CaoCao and LiuBei get their wives added in the game :XD

Are we getting the Blade Bow this week?

Cant wait to see the previews for the Blade Bow, I hope it retains its original core design at the very least.

I also hope its an Air Dash weapon, would be nice to have more of those.

I hope not all the charge attacks resemble the DW6 moveset. The charge string for that weapon was pretty terrible. Especially those kicks that ha atrocious range.

Hope the charge attacks are completely new and awesome.

Yeah, I don't know if I want to be the guinea pig on the DLC weapons this time around. I was a bit disappointed with the piercers, so I'm not sure if I want to drop another $16 on a 1000 yen card if these weapons end up being garbage. I think I'll wait for the preview and BlackKite's translation before making my decision.

So, about the Bladebow DLC, weapons are shown in the preview for the first week of the month(likely on July 4 (or 3 in the west),we could see the preview of the weapon.)

I want Xiao's Twin Fans first before Bladebow :3

No worries, KYoukd usually posts videos of DLC weapons. Once they have videos up they always post them here for us to see them in action.

if you wanna play it safe and wait, just wait till they release a vid of the Bladebow and you can decide if you want to get them yourself.
