What if : AOE2DE: Legend of Three Kingdoms
By Photoshop
This is how it should have been.
They don’t belong in Chronicles and they don’t belong into the main game.
I like it.
Chronicles for historical campaigns, while Legend also prominently features fantastical elements.
Both Chronicles and Legend civs excluded from ranked, but otherwise fully usable in the base game.
Something what TTK is really missing now is an architecture set appropriate for the late Han dynasty. Or medieval Chinese might also do the trick, it’s not so much about historicity anyway.
There would be many possibilities for more campaigns under the Legend label, one of the more widely known being King Arthur.
But it’s been a while since the last “classical” campaigns were released (The Mountain Royals in October 2023).
I didn’t know pink cherry trees are common in China, they are mostly emblematic of Japan.
A glimpse into a much better world…
Those are peach flowers. Famously associated with the oath between Liu Bei, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu.
I admit being so knowledgeable about plants that my own classification is : taste like chicken or doesn’t taste like chicken. So I saw pink flowers and rushed to conclusion
Usually, the flowers that ancient Chinese liked to plant were cherry blossoms(Edible cherries), and the flowers that Japanese people like are called sakura(For viewing / Ornamental plants). They are not the same species.
通常,古代中国人喜欢种植的是食用樱桃,日本人喜欢的花叫做观赏樱花/桜花/さくら。他们不是一个品种。
But the picture is of peach blossoms, this is Zhang Fei’s peach garden.
不过图中是桃花,这是张飞家的桃园。
Sakura is the japanese name for cherry blossom.
But if as Enejereek said the chinese ones are indeed peach trees, that makes them a different species.
I 100% agree with this.
I think most people would prefer it this way.
Wonderful. 100% love it. I would buy it without any hesitation!!
See, this? This I could get behind. Not because I’d buy it myself, I’m not interested in the 3k legend. But I’d be a-ok with it being a seperate mode that I don’t have to touch, but others could.
Was that too much to ask, management? Or are you guys just that hateful to us you chain different types of content together to reward your dumb ideas?
This, but with a 20 level campaign to cover the entire conflict, like in Battle for Greece
Initially 3 factions and room to add more…
Exactly what I’m thinking. If 3K is released a separate mode, it has the potential to include new factions like Lu bu, Xiaohou dun, Sun ce, etc.
