![]() I can’t guarantee that you’ll be the top dog, but I can guarantee that your character will have some impact on the story. Maybe you’ll instead become like Lü Meng (no relation to Lü Bu), Sun Quan’s general who conquered the Province of Jing and killed Guan Yu, almost doubling the size of Wu in the process, only to die a few months after his finest moment. ![]() Or maybe you’ll end up like Gongsun Yuan (unrelated to Gongsun Zan), whose family controlled a small state next to Korea all the way in the middle of the Three Kingdoms period and eventually tried (and fail) to fight it out with Wei. You even have generals like Gongsun Zan, who built his power base, helped Liu Bei’s career and eventually duked it out with Yuan Shao over control of the north. Zhuge Liang was never an independent warlord, yet he served Liu Bei as his main advisor and eventually became the main power behind Shu. Lü Bu betrayed a lot of people before being killed, and although his power never reached that great of a height, his impact and legacy is still there. However, you don’t need to be that powerful to have an impact. Now, not everyone can become the new Cao Cao, Liu Bei or Sun Quan. Of course, I can’t guarantee you that your character with become one of the big guys. Since I had such a positive experience with the character creation in Dragon Kin, I’m thinking it would be a great idea to do it again for the Last Days of the Han! Now, just like in Dragon Kin, you will create the character and I will be the one telling his role in the setting and talking of his actions. Also the mod can run up to the year 1000 (so more or less 800 years of game), although that will depend how things are going. I might even go further, since this mod will see any new Dynasty eventually fall and lead to another period of disunity. At the very least, I’m aiming at reaching the end of China, and with some luck even reach a new status quo (either the reunification of China or maybe a Three Kingdoms situation). We’ll watch them duke it out, see some of them fall and other rise in the hope of unifying China. This AAR will cover the warlords and rivalries of the era, the Cao Cao’s, the Lü Bus and the Yuan Shaos of the time (all these guys will probably be in the story, by the way). I’ve realized that there was no AAR of my favorite mod, The Romance of the Three Kingdoms by, and so I decided to rectify this grave sin. So the Last Days of the Han will be telling the story of the fall of the Han Dynasty (aka the start of the Three Kingdoms era). I say mostly because I might use a more narrative structure from time to time to focus on specific events or characters. This third AAR will be mostly written in a history book style, as I simply find it easier to do. The first one ended due to a loss of saves and the second I just finished, although not in the way it started. Hi! And welcome to The Last Days of the Han AAR!
