Full Shu Hero Roster (Total War Three Kingdoms) 全面战争:三国, 蜀国猛将
Keep an eye for these heroes as you play through Total War Three Kingdoms. The purpose of this post is to show who eventually became the vital heroes of the kingdom of Shu. During your campaign you will encounter many heroes and adversaries, but when you found the specific characters in this list, try to stay your hand and leave them alive. Instead try your best to recruit them to your faction and build a large roster of awesome heroes as they work in synergy in your service. Note that characters like Zhao Yun starts out working for Gonsun Zan and Huang Zhong began by working for Liu Biao. One of the distinct pleasures provided by Total War Three Kingdoms is the ability to capture heroes like a game of Pokemon~ and as the saying goes, "Gotta catch them all (for your dynasty!)"
Liu Bei: Humble, virtuous, and kind. Liu Bei came from humble origins despite being related to the imperial Liu clan of the Han dynasty. He could almost be seen as the protagonist hero of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms: a man who stowed virtues of the past and who sought to restore a sense of (status quo) harmony to the realm. His humanity is his greatest asset, and acts as a force multiplier to his many loyal followers
Guan Yu, one of the sworn brothers of Liu Bei along with Zhang Fei, the three men were often inseparable and Guan Yu followed Liu Bei through much of both the good times and the bad. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms he was depicted in an iconic green garb and handling a massive glaive in hand. Honorable to a fault and deadly in battle. His later death at the hands of Wu eventually started a domino effect that sped up Liu Bei's death.
Zhang Fei: A drunk ruffian, but through the love he had for his brother Liu Bei, Zhang Fei became one of the pillars of the kingdom of Shu. Rude and utterly bereft of formalities, he had the brawns of a muscle man and the temper of a berserker. Not the brightest bulb but ferocious in battle
Zhao Yun, a champion astride a white horse called "White Dragon." Young, handsome, and deeply loyal to his lord, Zhao Yun was a fine hero admired by many, even his enemies. Originally he served the frontier general Gongsun Zan as one of the "White Horse Volunteers." His actions at the Battle of Changban where he rode alone into a burning city to rescue to son of his lord was perhaps one of the most memorable climaxes within the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Zhuge Liang, the sagacious chancellor of Shu. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, which is largely pro-Shu, Zhuge Liang was depicted with so much abilities and foresight that at times he practically resembled a wizard from the Middle Earth. He secured Shu's refuge in western China and subdued many rebellions of the Nanman barbarians in the region. After Liu Bei's death Zhuge Liang acted as one of the last pillars of the Shu state.
Ma Chao. Called Ma Chao the Splendid, for his name literally means "supreme" or "to surpass." Ma Chao was perhaps one of the most capable cavalry champions of the era. A daring horseman who was trained by his father, the veteran Ma Teng. After wars with Cao Cao in the north, Ma Chao eventually joined Shu to oppose a Wei hegemony.
Huang Zhong, old timer, veteran sniper. In the Romance of the Three Kindoms, Huang Zhong was said to be one of the best archers of the era. Originally he served the southern lords, but eventually he served Liu Bei. Together with the likes of Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, and Ma Chao," he was among the ranks of what was called "The Five Tiger Generals of Shu"
