If you don't see a character here, it means their death date was either not recorded (Da Qiao / Xiao Qiao) or that they were a fictional character (Diao Chan / Zheng Jiang). Eight Princes characters are also not included since their timeline quite isolated compared to those who died during the Three Kingdoms conflict. If you are interested in Eight Princes history, please check out the Let's Talk Lore series covering the Eight Princes Conflict here: kzfaq.info/sun/PLV2U5Ov1FXfB8Lrulcu34v8WIPZh04OtU

Pre modern medicine, you were lucky to make it past childbirth. In fact, even the mother was lucky to survive childbirth. Childbirth was one of the biggest killers right up until the 20th century. Even something as small as an infected nail could mean death. But people had much stronger immune systems back then, as they were constantly exposed to lots of different germs and parasites and viruses. But still, death was common for all ages. Thank god for antibacterial soap and penicillin.

Usually when I think about the Three Kingdoms I always lament about how Liu Bei seemed to have suffered the most and gained the least. But Wei was overthrown by the Sima clan and Wu kept being mediocre until its demise. The truer tragedy is how these few decades of strife resulted in nothing lasting, except for the heroism of the warlords and soldiers.

Wei Yan was rebelling with the actions he took in order to prevent the army from doing so.

Wei Yan was the one who did that. Nobody sided with Wei Yan in his memorials and even his own retinue did not side with him, and Wei Yan was said to have been quite generous and treated them well. He was a rebel. He was not intending to overthrow Liu Shan or side with Wei or anything like that, but his actions were one of treason. He put the army in danger of destruction.

Makes me think that sickness/plague should be a mechanic in the campaigns. Would affect provinces more the more populated they are, generals, etc. would at least appreciate something like this for Records. Alas, if only records was more fleshed out.

It's there, but it doesn't really do much. Just reduces a besieged city's food supply by event. Then it's just gone once the city is captured or the siege broken. Shame. I like your idea. It reminds me of the sanitation mechanic in Attila, as the squalor from buildings and city can eventually give way to diseases that affect both the city and the armies in vicinity.

Sickness should be the next feature of this game, but optional. As everyone would not be happy when they finally get Lu Bu after he's killed 2000 of their troops but he dies from a cough.

Zhang Jue started the YTR by curing people through his Taoist magic. Died by a disease...quite poetic, showing that he no longer hold any power and/or his power has stop seeing him as worthy (in Taoism, if you commit acts of atrocities or acts against the heaven, your power will leave you, either stripped off by Tian rens or the power just leave you...Zhang Jue called himself the General of the Sky). The Yellow Sky was a lost cause and it's all because of Zhang Yue's greed

@SeriousTrivia3 жыл бұрын
So Ma Yingjiu’s family claims to be related to Ma Yuan who was a famous Han general. And Ma Chao’s branch also claims to be related to Ma Yuan. But Ma Chao’s branch were from Liang Province and Ma Yingjiu’s ancestors were a branch from the Hunan (think Changsha area) so they might be related or trace to a common ancestor say 2000 years ago but they were not descendants of each other

Do you have a list of characters that joined certain factions? There's a ton of generals to hire and its hard to tell who really was with who. Besides the obvious ones, the minor characters are hard to tell. I hope the sequel has a lot more events like the Zhao Yun or Zhuge Liang events where you get characters based on a specific timeframe or event. That might be a great lore series, go through the factions and talk about the notable characters and what they're known for, maybe in either a timeline order or hierarchy of rank or importance.
