On a related note, before I begin this...there were two TV series in China based upon and fairly closely following the events of the story, Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The first was done in 1994, while the second was done fairly recently, in 2010. If you don't want to read the story (it's very long) and have a passing interest in the history, I'd give them a watch.
While both are good, the 1994 version is lauded as the better one, simply because it is longer and includes events of the story prior to the start of the 2010 version (which starts well after Dong Zhuo has taken over the imperial court, replaced the rightful emperor with the emperor's kid brother as his puppet, and crushed the Eunuchs' rebellion). I'm currently watching the 2010 version on youtube; I hear the '94 version is on youtube as well, but I've not watched it.
Anyway, that's all. I'll stop posting fluff here. I promise my next post in this thread will be an actual post with progress on the game. Even if it means not posting here for a month. Promise.
