My Covid-19 self-isolation continues, but at least I have time to think of new campaign ideas. And one has arrived. I have always been fascinated by Tongguan or "Tong Pass" which was a mountain pass strategically located between the major cities of Chang-an and Luoyang. Adding to its importance was the fact that it also sat near the convergence of the Yellow and Wei Rivers.
It was inevitable that Tong Pass would catch the eye of the best military minds in the ancient Middle Kingdom, and the famous warlord Cao Cao was the first to see its possibilities. In 196 CE he began the construction of a fortress at Tong Pass. Eventually, a major battle of the 3 Kingdoms period was fought there, and that will be the climax event of this new campaign.
I am excited to return the the 3 Kingdoms period, because it is my favorite in all of Chinese history. This new campaign will have one enormous map featuring my adaptation of the Tong Pass geography. There will be 3 missions on this map.
In the days ahead I will create a teaser album in the Emperor Heaven Gallery and post screenshots there. I will also share updates on the Emperor Facebook group, if you follow it.
