Version history
---------------
v1.22 - Minor spelling fix
v1.21 - Minor spelling fix
v1.2 - Added city names to help you locate non-city areas (example:
instead of "He Nei", you will see "He Nei (Luo Yang)"; also
changed the tactics names to reflect the PS2 version labels.
v1.15 - Minor spelling fix
v1.14 - Apparently, a viceroy can send someone to search Lang Xie and
discover the Japanese. Fixed. Thanks Dantkrees from GameFAQs.com

v1.12 - Changed some territory names (Mount Tai = Tai Shan, Wu Zhang
Plains = Wu Zhang Yuan)
v1.11 - For Battle of Guan Du, Cao Cao should be stationed at Guan Du,
he can't be at Bai Ma. Thanks to Verenti at GameFAQs.com

you to play as a specific faction

v1.02 - Spelling and grammatical fixes; no content changes
v1.01 - Minor fixes
v1.0 - Original draft

Notes: For each event, you need to play a game with historical mode
enabled. Otherwise, it's probably not going to work. Also, for the
Searching Events, you simply have to search the event location to make
it happen. The Major Events category of events has movies. There is
some overlap between the Searching and Major events as you have to
search for Zhuge Liang, search for the Duke of Shan Yang (the deposed
Emperor Xian), and send your liege to search Tai Shan.
Recommended scenarios and recommended factions are simply that:
recommendations. You are not obligated to play the indicated scenarios
or factions, but going by the recommendations makes it easier to see
the event.
Please also note that these are guidelines: sometimes the event you
want does not happen even though you may have all the requirements
fulfilled. All I can suggest to you is try something a bit different
(e.g. use another officer, try the trigger at another time of the
year, increase your faction's reputation level, etc.)
Some terms worth distinguishing:
PLANNING PHASE: The part of your turn where you issue your orders to
your officers, set up armies to march and fight, etc. This is to be
distinguished from the...
EXECUTION PHASE: After you have finished making your orders in the
Planning Phase, the Execution Phase is where time passes and your
orders are carried out.
STANDARD SCENARIO: This is a normal scenario, out of a total of 10
scenarios. It is to be distinguished from a...
"WHAT IF?" SCENARIO: This is a hypothetical scenario that you can play.
They set up the map in a way that is slightly different than what the
novel or history has put it in that year. There are up to 10 of these
too, but not all of them are available: they have to be unlocked by
finishing a game having defeated all the non-Chinese tribes.
TACTICAL POINT TOTAL: This is the proficiency of your officer's tactical
abilities. It ranges from 0 to 1,000. The higher the TPT, the more
likely the officer will be to use that category of tactics, and with
greater effectiveness.
JIAN YE/MO LING: This city was originally called Mo Ling before Sun Quan
moved his capital to here from Chai Sang, at the request of his trusted
advisor, Zhang Hong. From that point forward, the city was renamed to
Jian Ye.

RECOMMENDED SCENARIO: Standard Scenario #5 (207)
RECOMMENDED FACTION TO CONTROL: Liu Bei

OTHER REQUIREMENTS:
1. It is either February, March, or any time between June and October.

6. Liu Bei controls the port of Long Zhong.
7. Zhuge Liang has not entered the game yet.
8. Xu Shu tells Liu Bei that Zhuge Liang should be found at Long Zhong.
TRIGGER: Send Liu Bei to search Long Zhong.
RESULTS:
1. You will get the first event where Zhuge Liang is not at home (the
first two "visits" being summarized in this event).
2. Once Liu Bei returns to his home city, send Liu Bei to search Long
Zhong again. This time, he will meet Zhuge Liang, who will agree to
serve Liu Bei.
3. Liu Bei's faction's reputation goes up. Zhuge Liang's loyalty is 100.
NOTE: If Xu Shu discovers Zhuge Liang instead, Liu Bei has at most one
year to hire Zhuge Liang (again, send Liu Bei to hire him; in the
meantime, Zhuge Liang will not join any other faction). After one year,
ANY faction can try to hire Zhuge Liang.
PERSONAL NOTE: That's interesting how Liu Bei has exclusive rights to
Zhuge Liang for a while.
2. THE DUKE OF SHAN YANG
RECOMMENDED SCENARIO: Standard Scenario #8 (225)
RECOMMENDED FACTION TO CONTROL: Sun Quan
EVENT LOCATION: He Nei (Luo Yang)
OTHER REQUIREMENTS:
1. It is before 234 AD (otherwise Liu Xie is dead).
2. The Han Dynasty has been abolished.
3. Your faction was not the one who abolished the Han Dynasty.
4. Your faction's reputation is 700 or higher.
5. Your faction controls at least two whole provinces.
6. Your liege's title is not Emperor -OR- you are a Liu faction.
TRIGGER: Search He Nei.
RESULTS:
1. Your faction will discover the deposed Han Emperor Xian, Liu Xie, who
has been living as the Duke of Shan Yang. You will have a choice to
either protect the Emperor or act stubbornly.
2A. If you decide not to protect Liu Xie, he dies.
2B. Your faction's reputation goes down.
2C. The loyalty of your faction's officers, who have Justice ratings of
11 or higher, goes down.
2D. All factions will have their relations with you worsen.
3A. If you decide to protect him, Liu Xie will officially abdicate his
claim to the throne to you.
3B. Your faction's reputation goes up.
3C. The loyalty of your faction's officers goes up.
3D. You are promoted to Emperor and accordingly you get the Emperor's
level of ranks and titles to which you may grant your officers.
3E. If your faction is NOT a Liu, then all the Liu factions (Liu Bei,
Liu Yan, Liu Biao, etc.) will have worse relations with you. Otherwise,
the relations remain as they are.
3F. Any other factions whose lieges also have the title of Emperor will
their relations with your faction worsen.
PERSONAL NOTE: I would have thought that Cao Pi would be rather happy
if Liu Xie dies at someone else's hand, so his relationship with your
faction wouldn't worsen...but maybe he's a sadist and wanted Liu Xie to
live in shame ("a fate far worse than death" kind of deal).

8. The loyalty of Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu, Fan Chou, Jia Xu,
Hu Che'r, Niu Fu*, Dong Min*, and Li Ru* goes down.
* if those three are still alive
PERSONAL NOTE: Although it says to play as Dong Zhuo's faction, I have
seen this event happen even though I was playing as another faction; I
guess its importance to China as a whole would permit this event to be
seen even though you are not playing as Dong Zhuo's faction.
3 and 4. THE THREE VISITS

2. Once Liu Bei returns to his home city, send Liu Bei to search Long
Zhong again. This time, he will meet Zhuge Liang, who will agree to
serve Liu Bei.
3. Liu Bei's faction's reputation goes up. Zhuge Liang's loyalty is 100.
NOTE: If Xu Shu discovers Zhuge Liang instead, Liu Bei has at most one
year to hire Zhuge Liang (again, send Liu Bei to hire him; in the
meantime, Zhuge Liang will not join any other faction). After one year,
ANY faction can try to hire Zhuge Liang.
PERSONAL NOTE: That's interesting how Liu Bei has exclusive rights to
Zhuge Liang for a while.
5. THE BATTLE OF GUAN DU
RECOMMENDED SCENARIO: Standard Scenario #4 (200)
RECOMMENDED FACTION TO CONTROL: Cao Cao
EVENT LOCATION: n/a
OTHER REQUIREMENTS:

other.

from these territories automatically retreat to their home bases.
4. Yuan Shao's faction's food supply is reduced by 70%.
5. The loyalty of Cao Cao's faction's officers goes up.
PERSONAL NOTE: It's pretty obvious (to me) that ALL of those territories
listed above in Requirement 8 do not have to be controlled by Yuan Shao.
He could control some of them or just one. The point is that AMONG those
territories, Yuan Shao needs 30,000 soldiers stationed.
Thanks also goes out to Verenti from GameFAQs.com for helping me with
Requirement #6.
6. THE BATTLE OF CHI BI
RECOMMENDED SCENARIO: Standard scenario #5 (207)
RECOMMENDED FACTION TO CONTROL: Sun Quan
EVENT LOCATION: n/a
OTHER REQUIREMENTS:

(likely Cao Cao) is hostile.

3. The faction who controls Xiangyang loses 90% of its soldiers
stationed at Wu Lin, Chang Sha, Lu Kou, Han Jin, Hua Rong, Jiang Xia,
Xia Kou, and Wu Chang. All of that faction's armies automatically
retreat to their home bases.
4. The loyalty of your faction's officers goes up.
PERSONAL NOTE: Again, as with the battle of Guan Du, ALL of those
territories listed above in Requirements 5 and 6 do not have to be
controlled by the enemy faction. He could control some of them or just
one. The point is that AMONG those territories, the enemy faction needs
30,000 soldiers stationed. Also, it doesn't seem to make sense that Zhou
Yu could be stationed or based out of Lu Kou if the enemy owns it, so
use a bit of common sense about how this event is to be done.

RECOMMENDED FACTION TO CONTROL: Sun Quan

has been living as the Duke of Shan Yang. You will have a choice to
either protect the Emperor or act stubbornly.
2A. If you decide not to protect Liu Xie, he dies.
2B. Your faction's reputation goes down.
2C. The loyalty of your faction's officers, who have Justice ratings of

Liu Yan, Liu Biao, etc.) will have worse relations with you. Otherwise,
the relations remain as they are.
3F. Any other factions whose lieges also have the title of Emperor will
their relations with your faction worsen.
PERSONAL NOTE: I would have thought that Cao Pi would be rather happy
if Liu Xie dies at someone else's hand, so his relationship with your
faction wouldn't worsen...but maybe he's a sadist and wanted Liu Xie to
live in shame ("a fate far worse than death" kind of deal).
