There are no dedicated Generals, Spies or Diplomat in Three Kingdoms, all characters can perform all roles. Characters in the game are now unique entities with different backgrounds and traits. However, with each warlord having personal ambitions and constantly shifting allegiances, the player needs to utilize strategy and tactics to unify China and write their own history.
New warlords rise and form the coalition to start the campaign against Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo's oppressive rule leads to chaos. The enthroned child Emperor, Xian, was manipulated by the warlord Dong Zhuo, at the age of eight. The game begins in 190 CE, in which the once glorious Han dynasty is on the verge of collapse.
