We all know the kid really got tossed because it had awful stats and so wasn't worth a retinue slot.

I bet super hero units were kinda historically accurate. I’ve seen peasant farmers, they’re weak as poo poo with no calcium

I'm gonna take a guess that CA - who are already mentioning the centrality of 'champions' to the game and showcasing heroic-type duels in the cinematic trailer - will probably include what you regard as dumb bullshit in the game, because it's been very well-received by the majority of players of Warhammer and they've already taken steps towards 'legendary lords' in historical games since then.

If the game doesn't include hero units no one will care, but if it does include hero units a lot of dorks will get angry and pissed off. So I'm hoping it does include hero units/generals. Also a lot of the actual Romance of the Three Kingdoms was explicitly "And then this dude killed, fuckin, 1,000 guys in the battle" so it's not like they're even deviating from the source material.

I hope someone makes a total realism mod that makes the heroes even more OP.

1000 dudes is stretching it but I'd totally believe a well fed, well trained fighter in the best armour and weapons one could buy having once chopped up 100 starving conscripts over the course of a day, especially if most of them are wounded that retreat and die of infection later because it's 190CE instead of all of them being instant kills.

Considering his touchy comment about my second post in the thread since the announcement, I disagree.

It's patently ridiculous but also fun & this setting makes a hell of a lot of sense for it

It's just funny that you'd write off an entire game in a series you're presumably a fan of because of a single feature. It reminds me of a small child who won't eat dinner because there's broccoli on the plate.

Remember heroes have been around since ETW in the form of super unique units.

I literally wrote one word and you flipped out, you massive weirdo anyway delving further into your hatred of fun is literally the opposite of what I intended so let's talk about something different. I actually don't know much about 3 Kingdoms China; anyone know likely factions? I'm hoping the titular 3 kingdoms don't start out as massive blobs; was it more fractured at the start of it? Beyond them, how much of a presence were northern nomads and so on? I know Goguryeo around Korea was just starting to establish its self over the game's period but not a whole lot else was going on there; what about Vietnam, Tibet etc?

Unless they do them like Agents which actually would make a lot of sense. Champions already function like how the heroes would. Plus they can be ignored and I am fine with that.

that part about river boats is interesting. As far as i know water combat was basically the boats acting as platforms for guys to fight on with fire being a major factor. seems like they might just have transports as the only real river boats so land armies=naval forces
