Going to hit the theater in 2007.

Most popular war at the romance of the three kingdoms era.

Happened in 208, where Cao Cao, the most dominant power in that time, got his ass kicked by the joint defensive power of Liu Bei and Sun Quan.

That evenement led to the real 3 kingdoms era and to 80 more years of battle, which, total, killed 7/8 of the whole population of China.

Still, that era was an era of chilvary, heroes, and deeds like that, and that battle was "glorious" for many, including the very "popular" Zhao Yun.

John Woo's project.

Going to be interested? I will.

That game on ps1 was romance of the three kingdoms 6.

No, they won't put it into their "folklore" habits.

No magic, only pure brute powers and strategies.

And a LOT of dead.
