Weapons sound very interesting! I don't see Yuanji getting a new weapon as she has become so popular with the throwing knives, I would be very let down if she lost them. As for the original costumes, everyone looks okay except for(can't believe I'm saying this) Zhen...didn't KOEI recently describe her as a real femme fatale?....right, so let's stick her in a frumpy dumpty nurse dress that gives her no shape and is completely colourless. Cai Wenji on the other hand looks absolutely gorgeous and that outfit goes hand in hand perfectly with the wired claws, I shall look forward to that combination! |

Wow, dozens of new and more useful DLC's there. I wonder which skins will get the "Alternate Colored Weapon sets". "DW4 Jiangdong scenario". More maps from DW4 is appreciated. "Support Animal White Tiger set" sounds nice and the Mammoth looks cool by the way. As for the weapons. Agreed with most things being said. The Blaze Blade totally screams Sun Quan and the Screw Crossbow...yeah...Yue Ying's DW6E/S-weapon. Loved that one and i support the comeback of certain old weapons (I said that weeks ago. Just in case someone does misinterpret my post from 2 days ago.). If it is indeed that weapon, i don't think Koei releases it so Yue Ying can have an alternative for her. I think THAT weapon might go to a future new character. Ma Su, when he gets in 8XL, or as the sole addition in 8E .

No way. Because this would mean that XL will include these DLC weapons. And this is a nonsense, since XL is like a huge DLC. So people would pay twice for the same weapon. Just like in DW7, the DLC weapons may be reassigned in Empires, but not before. I personnaly think that there is no need to give these weapons to someone as his EX. Having the weapons as "secondary weapon" only is OK for me. |

Maybe they will try to declone all characters completely and keep the generic weapons available for all characters. For now Crossbow for Yuanji and Blaze Blade could be fitting for Quan. So maybe we will finally see Ping with his DW5 Sword or Ma Chao with twin Spears. |

Maybe half of 'em will be for generic and half of'em will be for new charas... From now on...im KansakUMA(Which stands for Guan Suo's romaji spelling and UMA, which stands for Use martial arts because i still want him to use that) Edited by Ryō Genken, Thu Apr 18, 2013 11:33 am.

Could be a good idea maybe. By doing so, people could still play Wang Yuanji with the Throwing Knives if they want to (me included). Don't know if it is the same experience though. As for Ma Chao using Twin Spears. I would rather see him with a completely new Spear moveset and call it a Stallion Spear or something. Twin Spears sounds like something that could go to a new character. |

Twin Spears is the weapon i want Yu Jin to have as Wei lack a Spear user it's like Cheng Pu to be Wu's first Spear user with his Serpent Spear, Ma Chao can keep the spear he has |

@ ZeeZeeGoo: You know what? Your idea of Guan Suo using only hands and feet grew on me. I think he should have metal on the front of his shoes and knuckle dusters on his hands/fingers. But he should get an overhaul in looks imo. I have a very different look for him in mind, where he still looks young, but a bit more fierce, black long-haired and cool. Sort of like the 3 fighters in "Dragon Tiger Gate". As for the Nunchuks. That should become DOUBLE Nunchuks and go to.....Ling Cao. Ling Tong's father. Somehow i have this idea now since a while. |

I am now for new weapons just for those who share them with generics. The reason is with the cast is getting larger and bigger KOEI may need fresh ideas for weapons so they need to stop the DLC ones after completely decloning all characters and keep the new weapons for new characters. Other thing if they want to add more weapons is to expand their DLC with DLC character each with a new weapon and some stages with few cutscenes to fit them in Story Mode. |

There is just one problem with having Guan Suo using no real weapon, The Weapon Switch, isn't that why the weapons look rather large? Guan Suo would look rather stupid with huge knuckle dusters, if Koei stopped with the Weapon Switch then it'll work but again why relocate the Nunchaku when it suits Suo perfectly? Ling Cao most likely will never be added but if he was he can have a Large Sword maybe Ping's old Zanbato |

About Guan Suo...okay...so lets go through this again.. I want a martial artist character..but so far none from the KOEI series really impress me.. I like girl martial artist from the SW series(Naotora,Nouhime,and Gracia).. they are my favorite girls for using martial arts. Ieyasu also my "liked" characters on the list..because of his SB3 persona. Im not really a fan of Meng Huo, or any big wrestler type of character. You see i want a male that use a movesets like Ieyasu from SB I want to see something like Zhang Bao and Guan Xing did in their scene...but now in the gameplay.. I still want Guan Suo to use it because: 1) His normal Musou(O,R1+o, Aerial O) didnt show his nunchaku at all(Sima Yi,Huang Gai,Bao Sanniang, and XU Zhu show their weapon in their new musou) of all character why ONLY him that receive the treatment?! 2) his awakening musou also strange, if you notice it he just use his kicks, but if you look at all the character they all use their weapon(There are difference between awakening and true awakening musou) That's my 2 solid reason...for me. But if there is a new character that design is totally blew me away and a male. Then why not? As for the reason why the weapon is big...maybe make it more smaller than the current gloves..or just threw away the knuckles dusters and use greaves like Naotora did. Or maybe use strengthening aura anything can be done as long it uses martial arts Edited by Ryō Genken, Thu Apr 18, 2013 12:32 pm.

Yeah, that damn weapon-switch feature becomes the "STOP"-signal these days when there could be some extraordinary weapons. Kinda start to dislike the feature .Ling Cao has a nice little story and would give more form to an important event at the battle of Xiakou, where he dies by Huang Zu's forces (whom i want to be added to the Others roster by the way). By Gan Ning to be more exact. It would also add a bit more drama and emotion, from which we can't get enough. And since the Nunchuk was introduced into the series in the hands of a "Ling", that's where it should go to me. Ling Cao was someone, who "charged ahead of all other men". Sounds like something Bruce Lee would do . But with Double Nunchuks.@ Katatonia: I know you want to talk about him .

You tease. He'd add more to the Ling Tong/Gan Ning drama, that's for sure. Instead of making them look like rowdy'ed up frat boys on a Friday night, there'd actually be a reason why LT hates Gan Ning-the killing of Epicus Dilfius. Though I don't see the double nunchaku. Not if he looks anything like the card game, or how I designed him

probably the reason Suo doesn't use the Nunchaku in his Musous is most likely a homage to him using Martial Arts, and to be fair i highly doubt Koei are going to change Guan Suo's weapon since he's Unique already, those are some legit reasons for wanting it but i think Suo is fine the way he is, plus Koei might do a SW and give a female a Martial Arts moveset |

If another female is using martial arts as weapon and from SW series...then chiyome mochizuki should use this: http://thedarkblade.com/wp-content/uploads/ninjashuko2.jpg But its for another thread..and i still want to focus on him. About you're saying ahomage...you see i forget to add Ling tong...if you see his new aerial musou he also only using heeldrop and not a weapon, and Xu Zhu also a belly drop. But they CAN show their weapon at the very least. But yeah the problem with him is what will happen to his nunchaku if he gets what i want(Weaponless martial arts). I kinda have a wish that Yu Jin wields nunchaku, but maybe someone else completely different... Edited by Ryō Genken, Thu Apr 18, 2013 1:11 pm.

i was referring to the DW series for female with martial arts i mentioned SW as they already have that in the game, i kind of picture Sun Shi being the one to use Martial arts, if they did put the Nunchaku on someone else then i don't really know who maybe Zhu Ran? since i picture Yu Jin as Wei's first proper Spear user |

Anywaty..i want to talk about the costume. I kinda...hate Cai Wenji dressed as a a magician i mean it's good but.. i have this you know kinda wish all "wei" officers are connected with each other with one theme. IT seems Wei's theme will be " modern military" evidenced by Xiahou Dun and Xiahou yuan. Cao Cao could be the president or the supreme military commander with DUn and Yuan as the assistant. Cao Pi is rather connected if he is a Military doctor or medic. That means Zhenji too. Wang yi could be the female officers...Yue Jin as the foot soldier. And something along that thing...and Wenji also becomes a nurse like Zhenji. but Wenji is already a magician. so it's already out of question. |

Damn, even if it's DLCs (I never download them ), these got me excited. I too believe the Screw Crossbow is one Yue Ying's Bladed Bow, while I picture thhe Blaze Blade to be Sun Jian's dao in DW6, where at certain attacks, it will be wrapped in flames.Also, YAY FOR BRINGING SINGINGS AS BGMs! This is gonna be really awesome, especially because they chose Endless Sorrow. Wished they chose Awakening WoLong instead of Back To Back though.

I'll just say new weapons are dope, but I don't want Yuanji to lose throwing knives. Just take them all away from the generic johns. Guan Ping on the other hand....this greatsword does kinda suck. It had some interesting gimmicks with the followup moves, but it was overall too simple and ineffective. Sun Quan though? **** yeah bring on a new weapon....smeg off Sun Jian. |

And here i am again, with another idea .While i thought of replacing someone from my Wu-wishlist with Ling Cao, my eyes fell on Dong Xi because he isn't often talked about. I checked his wikipedia article again, to refresh my memory, and think that he would be a fitting candidate for (Double) Nunchuks. Simply because he fights alongside Ling Tong. Read this: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dong_Xi He would also be a decent addition, push the addition of Lady Wu because of that very important sentence towards her, he would push the addition of Huang Zu (did i mention that i want him in the Others roster ?), he would have an interesting relationship with Ling Tong, and he has an heroic death scene.Sorry for going Off-Topic btw.
