    Default Questions for a possible IH.

    Does anyone like Three Kingdoms China at about 193/194 A.D.?

    I'm thinking about an IH for it. A normal format somewhat like the Sengoku Jidai IH that's currently running.

    Well, I would join it. Out of curiosity, at what point exactly is this? My three kingdom's history is a tad rusty. Would this be around the point when Dong Zhuo takes power?

    Right after he fell. I'd rather not have any over-powering forces on the map right from the start.

    Perhaps based on the Viking Era of MTW game. Interesting era with mainly small forces with alot of bribery/diplomacy and alot of factions
    (u probably no if u have played the game)

    if u dont like the era ignore this im just rambling at 8am !!! no sleep yet

    Just some advices:

    1) Try to limit the numbers of players. This makes it a lot easier for you!
    2) Better concentrate on that; For example, end your engagement at Sengoku by handing your power to the Imagawa clan.

    Crazy Yoshimoto. Thinking I'd just give my land away. You have to come and take it.

    Also, I know there are a few Three Kingdoms fans in the Tavern and Arena, so try advertising there.

    Id join but instead of giving your lands to the powerful Imagawa who are rioght now your enemies you could give it the honourable Satake.lolz

    EDIT: about the time period:There would be a lot of factions because this is between Dong Zhou and the rise of Cao Cao/ Yuan Shao (i.e battle at Guan Du)

    BTW I claim the Liu Bei faction if it is playable.

    You got it, Tiberius. I'll probably go through with this idea, but the thing is, I can't find/Don't have the ability to make a map of the period, so if anyone can do that, PM me please. It would be appreciated.

    Wasn't Liu Bei a prefect for some other guy? The name's escaping me at the moment, but didn't he serve under someone else?

    No, at the time during Dong Zho's rule/after Dong Zhuo fell Liu Bei was the governor of his own city, Ping Yuan.

    I want to play one in ancient Rome, but I will join The Three Kingdoms. Try to not to have too much players, or it will fail.

    I've made the map. Its Three Kingdoms China, right after Dong Zhuo's fall. There are 26 Lords and I should have it posted in two days at the latest. (The earliest being tonight (EST)). There are 46 regions on the map.

    If you'd like to read up on the period and the people here are a couple sites you can check:

    I'll take Cao Cao.
