Play Destiny of an Emperor (Japan edition · Japanese) Online

Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei begin a campaign against the Yellow Turban rebels, and their army grows through victories, conversations and recruitment. Towns provide information and supplies, while castles and passes present battles that advance the story. This is an RPG journey rather than a map of independently managed provinces: you guide a travelling group of officers and decide their actions in rounds. Each officer’s displayed strength includes the soldiers under their command.

Up to seven officers travel together, but only five fight at once; a larger group can leave its strategist behind the fighting line to provide tactics. Assign that role deliberately and watch the shared tactical reserve. Weapons and armour must be equipped, including starting equipment that merely sits in a pack. Recover soldiers at inns and keep provisions available before travelling, because an army without food loses men. All-Out resolves routine battles quickly, but B returns control when a fight needs individual orders. Seek the town historian to write your progress to one of three history books; resting at an inn alone does not record the adventure.
