                                               Dynasty Warriors 8 Star Objectives
During story mode certain stages have an objective which will ensure a certain officer will live through a point they would normally be
unavailable and certain stages to be unlocked. It is recommended to use Beginner difficulty for obtaining the stars due to the long dialogue
length and have knowledge of using Battlefield Info to look for officer positions. Extra levels and Cyclone-elemental weapon are not required,
but will be helpful.

This is the only stage in the entire game that must be played twice to fulfill all objectives. Failing to rescue Cao Ang and Cao Anmin can be
easily achieved by heading straight to the opened castle gate after defeating Zhang Xian.
It is recommended to play as Dian Wei to rescue them and to make sure he survives the battle. Do not leave the castle when you defeat Zhang

result in him intercepting Huang Zhong. This considerably slows Huang Zhong's progress.

a chance to fail to capturing Mt. Tiandang.

Southwest other than Li Dian before Guo Jia orders them to retreat or it won't count, you will not get cutscene when you finish the stage when
done correctly. It is best to run to the exit point on the West side to catch the nearest officers first.

drive it to the path West of the doors to see a crack in the wall, fire to open it and enter one of the two empty areas to uncover the ambush units.

the order to retreat is given don't retreat and wait for a messenger to appear then immediately go to the other side, as Wei Yan or Ma Dai you
will have an easier time as there's a ledge you can jump down from which skips a large portion you would have to walk around if you were Jiang

Guo Huai
Defeating enemy officers allows for you to approach two points on the field where you can make Xiahou Ba take a detour which will give more
time as he will go the longer way around.
A rather simple objective. Make sure to follow your allies who head South when the groups split up, if you are too far from them they will be
defeated when the ambush is sprung.
Defend all gates within the castle. Enables Zhuge Dan to appear in later battles.

is defeated he will steal some Wei uniforms as he retreats which he will use later. Xingcai will then deploy wood oxen which is a ploy for a fire
attack, destroy the oxen and defeat Xingcai. Make your way through the South, but don't go all the way stop when you reach the cave like area as

castle. You don't have to personally defeat everyone as long as Liu Shan is last, Suo & Yinping need to arrive for this objective to count.

WEI [WEI6TH]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From the starting position in the northeast, head southwest to the bottom of the
hill where Ma Liang is stationed. You may take out Wang Fu along the way, since
that will help the officers to the northeast survive a little longer. In any
case, Guan Suo will drop down from the hill and attack you. Defeat Guan Suo and
Ma Liang to get the ladder set up in place. There maybe dialog spam that will
take place. Climb up the ladder and defeat Guan Ping at the top of the hill.
By now, the Wu reinforcements will be pushing towards the main camp, head them
off and defeat them ASAP. Cao Cao will still be hanging in there to the
northwest, but rush over to his side once the northeast area is under control.
Clear out the troops around Cao Cao and head down to the south. Guan Xing will
arrive near the gate. Defeat him and if everything is taken care of within 9
minutes, you'll get a treasure message.

            Gates Formation.
Weapon:     Crystal Cleaver
            Base Attack: 56
            Frost 10, Recovery 9, Jolt 9, Flurry 8, Awareness

straightforward and relatively painless. This one is no exception.
Rescue your allied officers along the way to the south by defeating the enemy
officers that they are engaged with. To get to the second officer pairing,
you'll need to ride a horse and jump to reach the platform and get to the gate
on the other side. Liao Hua is a gatekeeper and isn't engaged with an allied
officer. Defeat him to reach Cao Ren. If you defeat Liao Hua within the 8
minute mark, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
Go to the raised path in the center and you'll first run into Yan Yan. Defeat
him and a bit further along, you'll run into Old Man #2. The archery volley
that comes from the peons can be brutal, but having a horse with the Shadow
ability as well as Secret Arts will help nullify that. If you defeat Yan Yan
and Huang Zhong within the time limit, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
Character:  Xu Huang
Stage:      Defense of Chang'an [Wei Xtreme Stage 2]
Condition:  Defeat Cheng Yi, Zhang Heng and Han Sui within 4 minutes of
            starting the battle without losing a single allied officer.

            Cyclone 10, Barricade 9, Aggression 9, Jubilation 8, Harmony 8
Details:    From your starting position, head over to the southwest and you'll
run into Cheng Yi. Zhang Heng's starting position is southwest of Cheng Yi's,
however while you're taking care of Cheng Yi, Zhang Heng will come out towards
your position and you can take care of both of them fairly quickly. Han Sui is
in the back of the castle, so go in a counter-clockwise route inside the castle
to reach him. Once Han Sui is defeated and all of your allies are accounted for
within 4 minutes, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
Character:  Zhang He
Stage:      Battle of Zitong [Wei Xtreme Stage 7]

            supply depot within 6 minutes of starting the battle.

            Slash 10, Survival 9, Thorns 8, Resolve, Agility
Details:    The procedure for Zhang He's 6th weapon is the same listed as the
first steps outlined for Xiahou Yuan (The only difference is that you're playing
as Zhang He when the ambush occurs in the supply depot :P). Once you beat Zhang
Bao within the first 6 minutes, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
For the uninformed, go outside to the front of Fan Castle. Wu will send out
several officers to attack. Yu Jin's instructions are to lure the Wu forces
inside the castle. The targeted officers will be flashing in green and by
approaching them, they will pursue you. After you attract about two or three
officers, Guan Yu will announce that he will send messengers to halt the flood
attack. The next step is to put the luring mission on hold and defeat the
messengers.
The three messengers will head to the Wu camp to the southeast. Head down to
the south of the castle and head to the area where the two lower paths meet up
to the west of the Wu camp. The two messengers will run towards that spot
nearly at the same time and you can take care of them. The third messenger will
come from the northwest and will take a longer time to reach the Wu camp, so you
can head to where he is at (refer to the in-game map if necessary). Once the
messengers are taken care of, resume luring the Wu officers inside Fan Castle.
Funnel them along to the eastern gate. Once you get the Wu officers inside,
they will halt their pursuit of you and you can exit the castle to the north,
then west.
Next up, Guan Yu will dismiss Guan Ping from the floodgates leaving Guan Suo
behind. Head over to Guan Suo's position and defeat him to open the floodgates.
Once the floodgates are open, Wu will think that Shu was responsible for the
flood attack and will withdrawal from the battle.    If this is done within 11
minutes, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
Character:  Cao Pi
Stage:      Final Conflict at Guandu [Wei Xtreme Stage 1]
Condition:  Defeat Zhenji within 10 minutes of starting the battle.
Weapon Box: At the northeast corner of the center castle south of the river.

            Base Attack: 53
            Cyclone 10, Frenzy 9, Flurry 8, Jolt 8, Swiftness
Details:    Zhenji is holed up at Yanjin-North Base and it will take some
completed tasks in order for you to get to her.
First off, eliminate the peons that are around the base to the south. Once
that's done, Yuan Shao will send some Unit Commanders to attack the base. Next
up is that you're asked to take care of the officers that are responsible for
three forts. I would suggest going to the center first, then the southwest and
the west last. Cross the river to the north and Zhang He will come after you.
Defeat him in order to get the location of the supply depot (The supply depot is
located to the northwest). Defeat Wen Chou to set fire to the supply depot.
Now is the time to defeat Zhenji. Approach the northern door of the base and
she will pursue you. Defeat her within the 10 minute time limit and you'll get
a treasure message.
*If you're moving along at a good pace defeating enemies, Lu Bu will remain on
your side. When I got the weapon, I let the messengers get to Lu Bu and got the
weapon message before Lu Bu defected. So it may or may not matter if Lu Bu is
on your side in order to get the weapon.

Character:    Zhenji
Stage:        Melee at Chibi [Others Xtreme Stage 4, Free Mode Only]
Condition:    Prevent the enemy's fire attack and defeat Han Dang within 9
            minutes of starting the battle.
Weapon Box: At the dead end north of Han Dang's initial location.
Weapon:     Spring Thunder
            Base Attack: 44
            Thunder 10, Jolt 9, Uplift 9, Vigor 8, Agility
Details:    From the starting position to the south, head to the west and defeat
the group of officers in that direction. At this point, Wu will send its fire
attack units from three ships. Defeat them by moving from the south to north,
making sure that your allied officers don't lose to the fire attack units. When
all three areas are secure, head down to the ship to the south and ride it down
to the Wu shore. Once the ship comes to a stop, climb the ladder and you will
find Han Dang at the top. Defeat him to open up the garrison. If all of this
is accomplished in the first 9 minutes, you'll get a treasure message.
You may have to destroy the ballista in the room adjacent to where the weapon
box is in order to open the door.
********************************************************************************
The first set of bandits that you have to track down will try to escape the
stage. The first one will appear to just to the west of your starting location
heading west; the second will be to the north of your starting location, heading
north then west; the third will be to the far northeast and will head to the
northwest. It's suggested to take out the bandit leaders in the order that I've
mentioned. Don't worry about going into the garrisons until after the bandits
are defeated. The garrisons that are highlighted are to the northwest,
northeast and southwest. The northwest and northeast can be visited in either
order, but be sure to go the southwest garrison last. The couples that are
inside are Sun Ce and Daqiao to the northwest, Guan Suo and Bao Sanniang to the
northeast and Sima Zhao and Wang Yuanji to the southwest. Defeat each couple
and the next sequence will begin.
The second set of bandits feature them attacking handmaidens. One to the north,
the second in the central area and the third is below the platform that you
should be at in the southwest area. Defeating the bandits will free the
handmaidens and will go to nearby garrisons and wait. Start by going down from
the platform and defeating the bandit in the southwest area. Again, you can
take your time following the handmaidens to the garrison, it's more important to
rescue the other handmaidens. The next stop is the northern garrison and the
third is the central area. This is the suggested order to go visit the
handmaidens in the garrisons. To the west features Liu Bei and Sun Shangxiang;
to the north, Sima Shi and Zhang Chunhua and to the north-central garrison,
Zhang Fei and Xingcai. It's also suggested that you place some bodyguards in
the Secure Position Battle Skill at the Eastern Midslope Garrison Southwest
(i.e., the lower-level path where you found the handmaiden that's responsible
for Xingcai). Once you've finished off Zhang Fei and Xingcai last, rush over to
the southeast and drop down to the area where you placed your bodyguards.
The third sequence will begin and can be the most frustrating part of this
quest. You'll have to chase down more bandits, and they will spread out from
the initial spot where you placed your bodyguards. Hopefully, they will provide
enough interference, so that they won't go into their full sprint. Try to
eliminate all 6 in the same spot with a musou attack. If you're not successful
with the first attack, three bandits will head to the south and will split off
to the east and west from there.   The three bandits to the north will split to
the west and east once they get to the open field. I took the bandits to the
south while they were still going in a straight line, and therefore was a bit
easier to round up and finish off. Make sure to take care of all three bandit
units as the crowd can obfuscate the view a bit. Once the south is taken care
of, rush to the north and take care of the remaining three. They may start to
split off from that point so do your best to take care of the two that head west
and the one to the east. If you take care of the bandits successfully, take the
animals to the designated spots. To the southwest, you'll take the tigers there
and you'll meet Zhuge Liang and Yueying. Defeat them. Take the pandas to the
central garrison and you'll meet Zhou Yu and Xiaoqiao. Defeat them as well.
Once that's done, head over to the eastern area and go to each highlighted spot.
The two areas have three unit commanders each. Defeat them within the time
limit to reveal the next couples. They are Meng Huo and Zhurong to the west and
Guan Ping and Guan Yinping to the east. Once the second of the two beauties are
revealed, you'll get a treasure message.

defeating Cheng Yi, Zhang Heng and Han Sui. Next, leave the western part of the
castle and head to the east-central area to defeat Zhang Wei to put an end to
the sorcery. At this point, Pang De will appear to the west. Defeat the
officer guarding the gate and then Pang De inside. After defeating Pang De, the
reinforcements for Cao Cao's army will arrive. If this is accomplished within
the first 7 minutes, you'll get a treasure message.

Details:    Proceed through the stage as normal. As soon as you clear the
ambush in the supply depot to the west, Huang Zhong will start his arrow attack.
Afterwards, Ma Chao and Ma Dai show up to the southwest and south-central areas,
respectively. Both will make their way to the main camp. Ma Dai maybe a little
harder to track down due to the terrain. If the Ma clan are defeated in under 4
minutes upon their arrival, you'll get a treasure message.

********************************************************************************
Character:    Yu Jin
Stage:        Pacification of Jing Province [Wei Xtreme Stage 5]
Condition:    Successfully place the ladder and defeat Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei
            within 8 minutes of starting the battle.
Weapon Box: North of Guan Yu's main camp.
Weapon:     Heaven Conqueror
            Base Attack: 56
            Inferno 10, Jolt 9, Velocity 8, Explosive 8, Agility
Details:    At the start of the stage, head over to the foot of the central hill
and defeat Guan Suo and Ma Liang to get the ladder set up in place. Again, be
sure to defeat the Wu forces to the east to prevent your main camp being
overrun. A rage attack is useful to eliminate everyone quickly.
When you get close to Guan Yu, Shu reinforcements will arrive. Specifically,
Zhao Yun will appear in the northwest garrison and head towards Cao Cao while
Zhang Fei will arrive to the southwest, go to the southeast corner of the map,
then will head north. It may take some riding around to track them down, but if
the two of them are defeated in the first 8 minutes (as well as the ladder being
set up), you'll get a treasure message.

WU [WU6TH]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Character:  Zhou Yu
Stage:      Invasion of Runan [Wu Xtreme Stage 2]
Condition:  Find the assault unit after defeating Li Dian and Yue Jin.
Weapon Box: The north end of the east pathway the assault unit is traveling.
Weapon:     Light-Breaking Staff
            Base Attack: 46
            Flash 10, Whirlwind 9, Frenzy 9, Aggression 8, Thorns 8
Details:    This battle is another test on how quickly you can defeat officers
in a short amount of time. Having Red Hare will help immensely in this fight as
well.
From the starting position in the south, head over to center of the bridge area
to the northwest. Guo Jia will raise the drawbridge and will send Li Dian, Yue
Jin, Cheng Yu and Cao Anmin as ambush units. Fortunately, you'll only need to
defeat the first two on the list. This is a lucky break since while you're in
the midst of fighting off the ambush, Guo Jia will send troops from the east to
attack. You will have 1 minute from when Guo Jia issues the order until the
assault unit arrives outside your main camp. If the assault unit arrives at its
destination, Yuan Shu will freak out and you will fail.
This is where having a fast horse helps. Once you defeat Li Dian and Yue Jin,
rush over to where the byroad area is to the southeast of the map. The assault
unit is not shown on the map, but they are visible when you approach them along
the byroad. If you catch them before they reach the main camp, the assault unit
will mention that they have been spotted and you'll get a treasure message. At
this point, you might as well wipe out the assault unit and finish the stage as
normal.
********************************************************************************
Character:  Lu Xun
Stage:      Chief Commander Face-off [Wu Xtreme Stage 8]
Condition:  Defeat Cheng Yu, Jiang Gan and Zhaungzi within 6 minutes of
            starting the battle.
Weapon Box: At the room where Lu Meng is waiting.
Weapon:     Glass Dart
            Base Attack: 44
            Flash 10, Vigor 9, Frenzy 9, Morass 8, Greed
Details:    Another fairly straightforward procedure for this 6th weapon. Make
sure that you leave your bodyguards out of this fight since they can steal your
kills and lower your kill count.
To begin the stage, go south as the map suggests and eliminate as many peons as
possible to get to 100. A third of the way through, Cheng Yu enters the fray.
At the two-thirds mark, Jiang Gan makes an appearance. At 100 kills, Guo Jia
shows up. Once you defeat all three officers, the next corridor will open up.
Eliminate Zhuangzi inside the room within the 6 minute time limit and you'll get
a treasure message. Be sure to defeat Zhaungzi before taking out the altars,
otherwise he'll retreat once they're destroyed and you won't get the weapon.

            Base Attack: 65
            Frost 10, Morass 9, Harmony 9, Whirlwind 8, Fury
Details:    From the starting position in the northwest, head a short distance
east, drop down and go around and rescue your officers in the garrison. Once
you get your allies settled down, the Wu plot will begin.
Head over to the center of the northeast fort. Defeat the gatekeeper who will
lead to the first target for the weapon, Zhang Liao. Once you defeat him, you
can drop down from the platform and take care of Jia Xu to the east and Yu Jin
to the south. If you accomplish defeating these three officers within 10
minutes, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
Character:    Lu Meng
Stage:        Pursuit at Yiling [Wu Xtreme Stage 6]
Condition:    Defeat Feng Xi within 10 minutes of starting the battle.
Weapon Box:   At the garrison west of the south reinforcement gate.
Weapon:     Dragon's Jaw
            Base Attack: 56
            Slash 10, Awe 9, Roar 9, Harmony 8, Protection 8
Details:    Lu Meng's task in this stage is to play decoy while the little pyro
Zhu Ran gets to work up north.
Start off by defeating the enemy officers near the main camp. When that's done,
eliminate the officers that are in the southern garrisons. Intermittently, Shu
will send officers to your location, so stay alert. If you keep repelling the
Shu forces, eventually they will send a pincer attack unit. To the northwest of
that pincer, you'll find Feng Xi. He will be accompanied by juggernauts, so
take care when facing him. If you are able to defeat Feng Xi within the first
10 minutes of battle, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
********************************************************************************
First, take care of the ambush unit to the northwest of your starting location.
Afterwards, head over to the east of the main camp and defeat the assault unit.
This may take valuable time, but it will help keep Yuan Shu alive.
After beating the assault unit, cross the river north along the eastern road.
Defeat Xiahou Yuan to open up the garrison and maneuver past the arbalests to
find Guo Jia in the western fort. Defeat him and head over to the castle to the
northwest. Defeat Xiahou Dun inside. If this is accomplished within 7 minutes
(i.e., before Cao Cao shows up), you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
Now Cao Ren will bring reinforcements over to the east. At this point, the
byroad to the eastern entrance to the castle will be open, so go ahead and rush
over to the eastern byroad while ignoring Cao Ren, Xu Huang et. al. Head over
to the front gate and defeat Cai Mao to open it. If the gate is open within the
first 6 minutes, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
Character:  Sun Ce
Stage:      Assault Xu Province [Wu Xtreme Stage 3]
Condition:  Defeat Chen Deng before the [east] mountain gate is smashed and
            without a single allied officer being forced to escape.
Weapon Box: At the north east corner outside the center garrison defended by
            Chen Deng.
Weapon:     Icicle Tonfa
            Base Attack: 44
            Frost 10, Spurt 9, Triumph 9, Fear 8, Velocity 8
Details:    The procedure here won't take very long. Go to the western path and
defeat Zhang Fei in the southern garrison to clear it. It won't take long for
Zhou Yu's unit to get the east gate broken after the catapult gets set up, so
charge to the garrison in the northeastern area where you'll find Chen Deng.
Defeat him before the gate is destroyed and you'll get a treasure message.

Character:   Xiaoqiao
Stage:      Battle of Lujiang [Wu Xtreme Stage 4, Free Mode Only]

Weapon Box: The upper garrison south of Jia Xu's initial location.
Weapon:     Incense Fan
            Base Attack: 43
            Inferno 10, Thorns 8, Awareness, Resolve, Agility
Details:    Follow the procedure of luring troops to the northeast maze. Keep
in mind that the officers that are sent to the northeast are Xiahou Dun, Hua Xin
and Xu Xuan. Xiahou Dun and Hua Xin will circle around counter-clockwise and
will appear to the north of Zhang Liao's initial spot. Xu Xuan will stick
around to the south of Zhang Liao's initial spot on the lower platforms. Defeat
the two officers to the north first and then navigate your way to the south and
beat Xu Xuan. If the three officers are defeated within the first 8 minutes,
you'll get a treasure message.
*First time I did this, I actually   charged from the south and fulfilled the
requirements just fine. It's just    that your forces will be at a big
disadvantage moralewise and you'll   have to do some babysitting to make sure your
commanders survive the rest of the   stage.
********************************************************************************
Character:  Daqiao
Stage:      Assault on Xu Province [Wu Xtreme Stage 3, Free Mode Only]
Condition:  Personally defeat Zhang Fei and Guan Yu before Liu Bei starts to

Weapon Box: Near Guan Yu's initial position.
Weapon:     Misery Sticks
            Base Attack: 38
            Venom 10, Frenzy 9, Fear 8, Velocity 8, Fury
Details:    Head over to the west and defeat Zhang Fei in the garrison. Next,
backtrack and head over to the eastern garrison. You may have to help out Zhou
Yu's squad by defeating the officer guarding the gate and get the catapult set
up. Once the gate is destroyed, move in and defeat Guan Yu. If this is done
within the first 5 minutes of the stage, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
********************************************************************************
Character:  Lianshi
Stage:      Assault on Xu Province [Wu Xtreme Stage 3, Free Mode Only]
Condition:  Defeat Chen Gong before he arrives in Sun Ce' main camp.
Weapon Box: South of the northern catapults' setup location, near the stairs.
Weapon:     Peng Crossbow
            Base Attack: 52
            Frost 10, Aggression 9, Awe 9, Triumph 8, Jubilation 8
Details:    Proceed through the stage as normal. When the two-pronged attack is
a success, Liu Bei will open the gates to the castle. This is your cue to head
over to the southwest garrison since that is where Lu Bu's army will show up.
Chen Gong is among the litany of officers, go ahead and defeat him as well as
the rest of Lu Bu's squad. If Chen Gong is defeated and doesn't reach the main
camp, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
Character:    Lu Su
Stage:        Chief Commander Face-off [Wu Xtreme Stage 8]
Condition:    Defeat Xun You, Xun Yu and Zhang Lu within 6 minutes of starting the

            Base Attack: 60
            Inferno 10, Velocity 8, Flurry 8, Swiftness, Greed
Details:    The procedure is similar of that to Lu Xun's, but the enemy officers
are different. Xun You will appear a third of the way to 100, Xun Yu at two-
thirds, and Jia Xu will appear at 100 kills. Defeat the mystic Zhang Lu before
disabling the sorcery. If this is completed in the first 6 minutes, you'll get
a treasure message.
********************************************************************************

SHU [SHU6TH]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once you leave the castle, the retaliatory forces will appear in the southern
part of the castle. They also happen to be the officers that you need to defeat
in order to get Zhao Yun's 6th weapon. Defeat them within the 14 minute time
limit and you'll get a treasure message.
Keep   in mind that Liu Bei and Sun Shangxiang will advance to the southwest and
will   run into some ballistae. That and fighting Zhou Yu, Lu Meng and company
will   eat at their life, so defeating the retaliatory forces quickly and riding a
fast   horse over to the southwest will help the happy couple survive.
********************************************************************************
Character:  Guan Yu
Stage:      Defeat Lu Bu [Shu Xtreme Stage 1]
Condition:  Defeat Zhang Liao and Lu Lingqi within 9 minutes of starting the
            battle.
Weapon Box: In the square area west of Chen Gong's initial position.
Weapon:     Heavenly Dragon
            Base Attack: 61
            Flash 10, Flurry 9, Awe 8, Fear 8, Resolve
Details:    Zhang Liao and Lu Lingqi are inside the castle to start the stage
with the gates tightly shut, so the goal here is to force Lu Bu's forces to open
the gates.
Start by taking the garrisons that surround the castle by defeating the officers
inside them. Once the garrisons are taken over, catapults will be built and
will begin to fire onto the castle. Some enemy officers will leap from the
castle walls and try to destroy the catapults. Defeat that vanguard unit and Lu
Bu will open the gates to the castle. You can defeat Lu Bu if you like (he
reappears in the throne room in the north-central area if you beat him) and go
after Zhang Liao and Lu Lingqi from there. If you defeat the two of them within
9 minutes, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
Next, Xu Shu will ask you to lure the enemy to the central area. Just approach
Xu Zhu, Zhang He and Xiahou Yuan and they will charge to the center from there.
Once everyone is at the center, Xu Shu will give the signal and the ambush units
will come out of their hiding spots. From there defeat the foes in the center
and more importantly, go to Zhang Liao to the northwest. Defeat him and you'll
get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
Approach the center of the map when the stage starts. As soon as you arrive, Yu
Jin will be set up on the eastern platform firing catapults at your forces. You
may want to spend 1 minute to 90 seconds clearing out the officers in the
center, so that they will have a higher chance of survival since periodically
the morale of your forces as well as the life bars of your officers will
decrease as long as the catapults remain active.
Head over to the east and defeat Cao Ren to open the gate. You can ignore Dian
Man and head over to Yu Jin and defeat him. If you defeat Yu Jin without any
ally officers fleeing within 6 minutes, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
A few moments after you enter the castle, Yuan Shu's reinforcements will appear
to the south, southeast and east. Defeat Yuan Shu, Ji Ling, Lei Bo and Zhang
Xun within the 10 minute time limit and you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
Character:  Ma Chao
Stage:      Final Conflict at Wuzhang Plains [Shu Xtreme Stage 7]
Condition:  Defeat Zhang Liao, Yue Jin and Li Dian before the Wei Forces can
            reach the main camp.
Weapon Box: At the top of the pathway east of Ma Chao's initial location.
Weapon:     Radiant Flash Spear
            Base Attack: 49
            Flash 10, Explosive 9, Whirlwind 9, Thorns 8, Resolve
Details:    Proceed through the stage as normal by defeating Yu Jin on the
eastern platform to stop the catapults. Just hang out on the platform for the
time being. Shortly thereafter, Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan will appear as
reinforcements to the north, while the Hefei trio will charge out from the
center gates (Nice Power Ranger-like quote Li Dian). Zhang Liao will go down
the west-central path while Yue Jin and Li Dian will go down the east-central
path. Drop down from the platform and you can intercept the three officers
before they can leave the central area. If you defeat all three officers,
you'll get a treasure message.

Character:  Yueying
Stage:      Defense of Yong'an [Shu Xtreme Stage 6]
Condition:  Prevent the Wu Forces' generals from entering the Shu Forces'
            main camp and defeat Ding Feng and Zhu Huan within 9 minutes of
            starting the battle.
Weapon Box: North of Ding Feng's starting location.
Weapon:     Holy Light Striker
            Base Attack: 43
            Flash 10, Thorns 9, Barricade 9, Chain 8, Enlightenment 8
Details:    The best way to keep the Wu forces from entering the main camp is to
defeat as many Wu officers as possible in front of the Shu forces. For now,
stop the first wave of engineers that are assigned to set a fire attack in your
area. Zhu Huan will make his appearance on a platform and will cause an archery
attack near the main camp. Another wave of engineers will soon follow and
defeat them again. Next, an assault unit will go after the main camp from the
east. Run over to them and defeat the two officers.
By now, a third wave of engineers would have come along and likely would have
set the forest area ablaze by now. At this point, try to defeat all the
officers in the burn zone so that your allied forces don't fall quite as easily.
When that's done, take the far south path west and rush up to Zhu Huan. Defeat
him and the arrow attack will stop (as well as the morale drops). Turn around
and head east over to Ding Feng's position. Defeat him. As long as your
officers are still fending off peons in the forest, no one should be able to
make it to your main camp. If the following is completed in the first 9
minutes, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
There will be four waves of engineers, so you have to move back and forth quite
a bit to get to them. Morale maybe an issue for Liu Shan since the assault unit
will likely reach the main camp while you're chasing down engineers as well as
the constant barrage of arrows from the southwest. If you defeat the four waves
of engineers without the area being caught on fire in under 6 minutes, you'll
get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
Character: Liu Shan
Stage:      Defense of Yong'an [Shu Xtreme Stage 6]
Condition: Defeat Ding Feng and Lianshi within 5 minutes of starting the
            battle.
Weapon Box: In the southeast corner of the battlefield.
Weapon:     Destiny Ender
            Base Attack: 44
            Venom 10, Explosive 9, Morass 8, Awareness, Greed
Details:    For this version of this stage, it's best to ignore the engineers
and head straight to Ding Feng and Lianshi. If you're confident on how quickly
you can eliminate officers, go stop Zhu Huan to the southwest to save what
little morale you have left. Ding Feng and Lianshi lie to the southeast a short
distance apart. If you defeat these two officers within 5 minutes, you'll get a
treasure message.
When that is done, head back to your main camp, since the assault unit is likely
putting a hurt on the officer defending the camp.
********************************************************************************
Character:  Xingcai
Stage:      Defense of Mt. Dingjun [Shu Xtreme Stage 4]

Details:    Defeat the officers near the main camp, then head up the mountain
trail to the western side of the map northward. Defeat Wang Yi along the way
and put a stop to Zhang He attacking Liu Bei to the northwest. Guo Huai is
located to the southeast of where you'll find Liu Bei. If all three officers
are defeated in the first 7 minutes of the stage, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
Character:  Ma Dai
Stage:      Revenge at Yiling [Shu Xtreme Stage 5, Free Mode Only]
Condition:  Carry out Fa Zheng's plot within 14 minutes of starting the
            battle.
Weapon Box: At the garrison southwest of Zhu Ran's initial location.
Weapon:     Precious Frost Brush
            Base Attack: 43
            Frost 10, Induction 9, Spurt 8, Rigidity, Desperation
Details:    With 14 minutes as the time restriction, there's plenty to do to
make sure that Fa Zheng's strategy is a success.
Make your way through the stone sentinel maze and be sure to eliminate any
officers and torch troops, since they will slow Liu Bei's progress if he's left
alone. By the time you approach the exit to the east, Lu Xun will start sending
the fire attack unit to the forest. Try to take no more than 4 minutes to get
to this point.
The officers that head up the fire attack units will attack at opposite ends, so
it's suggested that you have some bodyguards equipped ahead of time and have
them secure the location at one of the ends of the attack zone (Northeastern
Garrison First Garrison or Northeastern Garrison Fourth Garrison; I placed mine
at the First garrison before the turn westward) so that they can slow the
progress of the fire attack units. While the bodyguards and hopefully some of
the Shu officers are taking care of the fire attack units to the northeast, head
over to the central area and take care of the attack from the south side. Zhu
Ran will also send another set of fire attack units, so you'll have two officers
attacking from south and two from the east for a combined total of four
officers. Once the two officers on one side are eliminated, head over to the
other side and take care of the other two. If at any point the officers sneak
into the fire attack zone, the fire attack will occur and you will fail.
Once the fire attack has been squelched, the next step is to get the ambush
units set up in place. In order to do that, you'll have to clear the area of
enemy officers. The northeast may have one or two remaining, but your allies
can clear that area without too much babysitting. The bigger concern needs to
be focused on the southwest side anyway. You'll have Zhuge Jin and Ding Feng
(NPC) among others to defeat, plus Zhu Zhi in the garrison just before the
ambush point. Use musou or rage attacks if needed. If all goes well, Guan Suo
and Zhang Bao will withdraw to the northeast and Zhao Yun and Guan Xing will
hide to the southwest.
Next, lure either Zhu Ran or Lu Xun to the fire attack zone (Zhu Ran-central
area, Lu Xun-northeast). They will set the forest ablaze. Now retreat to the
northeast corner of the map. If this is accomplished in the first 14 minutes,
you'll get a treasure message. You'll get the message before Liu Bei gives the
order to attack.

********************************************************************************
Character:  Xu Shu
Stage:      Clash at Changban [Shu Xtreme Stage 2, Free Mode Only]
Condition:  Personally defeat Jia Xu after carrying out Xu Shu's plot
            successfully.
Weapon Box: Outside the east entrance of Cao Cao's main camp.
Weapon:     Flashing Arrow Sword
            Base Attack: 52
            Slash 10, Recovery 9, Protection 9, Enlightenment 8, Explosive 8
Details:    Another broken record in terms of directions for this stage. Like
with Zhang Fei and Guan Ping, get the ambush units set up within 5 minutes and
lure Xiahou Yuan, Zhang He and Xu Zhu to the center. When the ambush succeeds,
head over to Jia Xu's position in the garrison to the south of Cao Cao and
defeat him. If the aforementioned is completed successfully, you'll get a
treasure message.
********************************************************************************
********************************************************************************
Character:  Zhang Bao
Stage:      Defense of Mt. Dingjun [Shu Xtreme Stage 4, Free Mode Only]
Condition:  Defeat Xiahou Ba and Xu Huang within 7 minutes of starting the
            battle.
Weapon Box: At the area west of Xiahou Ba's initial location.
Weapon:     Demon Flailblade
            Base Attack: 44
            Venom 10, Thorns 9, Jolt 9, Uplift 8, Agility
Details:    Depending on how quickly you can reach Liu Bei and achieve Fa
Zheng's strategy, Xiahou Ba and Xu Huang can be tough to beat or be a run-of-
the-mill skirmish. You first run into Xiahou Ba and Xu Huang when Fa Zheng asks
you to lure the Wei forces in the northeast to the ballistae unit. If you have
the time, you can lure them to the ambush zone and the two officers will lose
their hyper status; otherwise you may have to beat them in their hyper state if
you're running short of time.
In any case, if Xiahou Ba and Xu Huang are defeated in the first 7 minutes,
you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
To get the weapon box, you'll have to backtrack some in order to get it. Just
be sure that you have a fast horse and fast officer killing abilities in order
to catch up to Lu Lingqi before she gets away.
********************************************************************************
Character:  Fa Zheng
Stage:      Revenge at Yiling [Shu Xtreme Stage 5]
Condition:  Carry out Fa Zheng's plot within 15 minutes of starting the
            battle.
Weapon Box: At the garrison initially defended by Lu Xun.
Weapon:     Endless Void Cloth
            Base Attack: 44
            Thunder 10, Survival 9, Jubilation 8, Velocity 8, Awareness
Details:    This is the same procedure as Ma Dai's 6th weapon, only you are
given an extra minute to complete the strategy. If Fa Zheng's plot is executed
successfully in the first 15 minutes, you'll get a treasure message.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JIN [JIN6TH]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Character:  Sima Yi
Stage:      Riot at Luoyang [Jin Xtreme Stage 1, Free Mode Only]
Condition:  Advance together with Xiahou Ba within 8 minutes of starting the
            battle.
Weapon Box: Along the western pathway outside the throne room.
Weapon:     Demon Beard
            Base Attack: 46
            Slash 10, Survival 9, Spurt 9, Awe 8, Fury
Details:    Time is a factor in the early going, but the requirements aren't too
difficult. First, rescue all of your loving family in the order of Shi, Zhao
and Zhang Chunhua by defeating each of the officers that they're engaged with.
Once they're rescued, go through the western portion of the castle and eliminate
the officers and commanders along the way to open the gates.
Once you arrive into the castle, you'll get a message that messengers are trying
to contact Xiahou Ba in order for him to defect. The first messenger will go
from the north to the central room. Eliminate him before he reaches the door.
The next messenger will arrive from the northeast and will go to the eastern
door of the central room. This will require some back-tracking and heading over
to the eastern gate guarded by a Unit Commander. Eliminate the Unit Commander
and head over to the messenger and eliminate him before he reaches Xiahou Ba.
The last messenger will take the same route as the first, so head back over to
the center of the map and eliminate him.
Once the messengers are taken care of, head to the central room to open up the
doors and Xiahou Ba will join your forces. If this is done within 8 minutes,
you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
The last ingredient to the southwest becomes available after you clear the area
of tigers. The officer duo there are King Mulu and Meng Huo. Again, be sure to
defeat both of them. If you defeat the 10 named officers before they withdraw
and collect all the ingredients, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
Next, Ding Feng will send two officers to each side, Jiang Wei will send three
siege ramps to each side and Zhong Hui will send two rams to each side. Defeat
all the items listed without having the castle defenses being compromised.
Afterwards, the three officers will stop their siege. If the castle is secure
after the raid attempts, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
Character:  Deng Ai
Stage:      Escape from Chengdu [Jin Xtreme Stage 5]
Condition:  Defeat the ambush units within 10 minutes of starting the battle.
Weapon Box: North of Chengdu Castle's east entrance towards the closed gate.
Weapon:     Spiral Thunder Lance
            Base Attack: 58
            Thunder 10, Thorns 9, Velocity 9, Explosive 8, Frenzy 8
Details:    Proceed through the stage as normal. By the time you are about to
leave the castle to the southeast, the ambush unit of Xun Xu and Li Fu will show
up and try to stop you from leaving. Defeat them. If you are able to clear the
ambush in the first 10 minutes of the stage, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
********************************************************************************
********************************************************************************
********************************************************************************
Character:  Xiahou Ba
Stage:      Defense of Shangyong [Jin Xtreme Stage 2]
Condition:  Rescue all of the allied generals inside Shangyong Castle within
            6 minutes of starting the battle.
Weapon Box: In the garrison where Wang Ping is located.
Weapon:     Frost Breaker
            Base Attack: 67
            Frost 10, Explosive 9, Chain 9, Thorns 8, Morass 8
Details:    A case of lack of originality for this stage, since these are the
same requirements as Zhong Hui's 6th weapon. The only difference is that you
are given one more minute to complete the rescue mission. Rescue the allied
officers in the castle in the first 6 minutes and you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
********************************************************************************
The next event is that assassins will appear and try to convince the three
wavering officers to fight for Zhong Hui. Defeat the assassins before they
approach the officers. The assassins starting points are the southwest corner
and the north and south ends of the main door of the castle. The assassin to
the southwest should be very close to you. Go ahead and eliminate him. Head up
to the castle gate and take care of the other two assassins.
Once they're out of the way, go and meet the three officers that you need to
defect. One is located in the corner to the northwest, the second is at the
port in the north-central area and the third in a fort over to the east. Defeat
them before Zhong Hui's main unit arrives and they will defect. If this is
accomplished in the first 15 minutes, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
********************************************************************************
Once the Xiahou Ba situation is taken care of, charge up to the throne room and
Cao Shaung will attempt to make his getaway. If you reach the throne room in
the first 10 minutes, you'll get a treasure message.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OTHERS [OTHERS6TH]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Character:    Diaochan
Stage:        Uprising at Chang'an [Lu Bu Historical Stage 3]
Condition:  Defeat Zuo Ling, Zhu Jun, Song Guo, Niu Fu and Hu Feng within 4
            minutes of starting the battle.
Weapon Box: The northeast room from the first bridge you cross.
Weapon:     Graceful Aster
            Base Attack: 48
            Cyclone 10, Jubilation 9, Vigor 9, Roar 8, Aggression 8
Details:    This is another stage where Diaochan has to defeat multiple officers
in a short amount of time. Using her R1+O musou and/or a Cyclone attributed
weapon will help as an officer killer.
Fortunately, the path here is fairly direct. The only problem that you'll run
into is the last officer (Hu Feng) will be accompanied by tigers. Once you
defeat the laundry list of officers within 4 minutes, you'll get a treasure
message as well as some tigers to play with for the rest of the stage.
********************************************************************************
Character:  Lu Bu
Stage:      Recapture of Chang'an [Lu Bu Hypothetical Stage 9]
Condition:  Defeat Zhenji, Zhang He and Yuan Shao within 10 minutes of
            starting the battle.
Weapon Box: Near Yuan Shao's initial position.
Weapon:     Explosive Halberd
            Base Attack: 79
            Thunder 10, Velocity 8, Harmony 8, Swiftness, Fury
Details:    This is a test on a big stage. As usual, killing officers quickly
is essential, for not only the targeted officers but everyone else in between.
Fortunately, you get to play as Lu Bu in which you can spam the dual halberd
switch attack (increased attack and attack speed) as often as you like to
decimate foes quickly.
You'll start over to the south and Chen Gong will get the ram to the first gate.
Once the ram is on the move, Yan Liang and Wen Chou will intercept it.
Eliminate them to keep the ram on the move. Then, Zhang He will activate the
ballistae causing the ram to stop. The first target is Yuan Shao over to the
southwest. Rush over and dispatch him and try to take 10-15 seconds with each
officer along the way. Use the halberd switch attack if needed. If time is an
issue defeating officers, pack some bodyguards with you ahead of time and have
them attack the officers near Chen Gong. The bodyguards will also help Chen
Gong survive the battle.
Head over to the east and defeat Zu Mao who heads that ballistae unit. You can
ignore the officers that Zhenji sends from the castle, since they will follow
you up to the east instead of going after Chen Gong. Next is Cheng Pu, beat him
to open the waterway entrance. A Wu ambush unit will show up in the waterway
consisting of Sun Shangxiang, Huang Gai and Han Dang. The officers from
Zhenji's unit will follow you into here and you can take everyone out in one
fell swoop. Defeat them to advance to the next area. You can ignore the
officers as you go up the steps. At the top of the stairs is Zhenji, defeat
her. Head west along the walkway until you reach Zhang He and you can take him
out and (finally) silence the ballistae attack.
I hope that Chen Gong is still holding up fine, since you may get a message or
two indicating that he is struggling. If you take care of the aforementioned
within 10 minutes, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
The first part of the competition, you are asked to defeat the most officers in
the least amount of time. Sun Jian and Cao Cao are no slouches and you will see
reports that they have defeated several officers themselves. Go from the
northwest to the northeast eliminating each non-playable officers down the line.
Diaochan will march her way from the central fort over to your location, but it
will take some time for her to get to you. From my method, I had to backtrack
to her after defeating the first four officers. You can beat her in between if
you like, but the bottom line is that you need to defeat all five officers
around 2:30 into the stage, otherwise Cao Cao or Sun Jian will be the victor.
The faster you finish, the more time that you have for the second part of the
competition.
The second part of the competition is to feed the peasants. This one can be
annoying because you have to keep the supply units on the move with their
tortoise-like pace. The best advice I have for winning this part is as
follows:
-Throughout the transport, take out EVERY PEON. The supply troop will try to
engage them with lackadaisical effort and will eat up lots of time that can be
better used for them to run over to the northeastern garrison.
-Beat Cai Wenji as soon as she shows up outside the central garrison. Even
though she isn't near the supply troop, they won't move until she is gone.
-Next, you'll run into a bandit ambush party to the northwest. The supply troop
won't move past the garrison until they are gone.
-As soon as it's safe for the supply troop to resume their advance, another
bandit ambush awaits them to the east of the northwest garrison. Once again,
eliminate all the enemies so that the path is clear. There are some clumps of
peons just up ahead. Be sure to slay them too.
-Don't be concerned about Sun Jian and Cao Cao feeding their constituents first.
The main thing is to make sure all of your supply captains are alive.
-Just as soon as the supply troop is ready to enter the garrison to feed the
peasants, another bandit ambush party will come along and will bring ballistae
with them. I hope you have a Shadow horse as well as a strong horse attack,
because it's best to take out the ballistae on horseback since they are the
biggest threat to the supply troops' health. Take care of the bandit officers
as well. As you are pushing the bandits and ballistae back, the supply troops
will slowly trickle in and feed the peasants. Hopefully, you have all of your
supply captains alive and moving, since when I did this I got all 5 captains in
the garrison with 15 seconds to spare.
If you win the first part of the competition and get all 5 supply captains in
the garrison before the 10 minutes are up, Wang Yun will announce the Yuans are
the winner and you'll get a treasure message...after about a minute of message
spam so just be patient.

********************************************************************************
Character:  Zhurong
Stage:      Protect the Animals [Others Xtreme Stage 6]
Condition:  Defeat Yuan Shao and Xiaoqiao before they can get close to the
            animals.
Weapon Box: Along the pathway south of the west reinforcement gate on the
            battlefield.
Weapon:     Enchanted Lotus
            Base Attack: 44
            Venom 10, Thorns 9, Agility, Rigidity, Desperation
Details:    You want to make sure that neither Yuan Shao or Xiaoqiao enter the
garrisons where the animals are. If you get the message “X is quickly
approaching the animals!”, you will fail. Yuan Shao will arrive on the eastern
edge of the map (northeast of your initial location) and Xiaoqiao will arrive
from the west. If you stop Yuan Shao and Xiaoqiao before they break through the
garrisons, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
Character:  Zuo Ci
Stage:      Runan Rescue Mission [Others Xtreme Stage 1]
Condition:  Defeat Zhang He within 8 minutes of starting the battle.
Weapon Box: In the small square area northeast of Zhang He's initial
            location.
Weapon:     Reality Destroyers
            Base Attack: 60
            Inferno 10, Triumph 9, Aggression 9, Protection 8, Uplift 8
Details:    Similar to Zhang Jiao's procedure, but your main objective is to
defeat Zhang He. Be wary of the ballistae that surround the beautiful one. If
Zhang He is defeated in the first 8 minutes, you'll get a treasure message.
********************************************************************************
Once things are under control, head over to Yanjin (south-central garrison) and
defeat Zhang He. He will spring an ambush, but if you're able to defeat Zhang
He in the first 5 minutes without any of your allies fleeing, you'll get a
treasure message.
********************************************************************************

            reinforcements.
Weapon:     Soaring Wings
            Base Attack: 56
            Frost 10, Protection 9, Chain 9, Fury, Greed
Details:    From the starting position, head north to the front of the
drawbridge and beat Zhang Fei. From there, you'll have to head to the
southeast. If you have time, lure Cao Cao's forces to the ambush spot,
otherwise press on.
If Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are defeated in the first 8 minutes (last time I
promise), you'll get a treasure message.
