Considering it, this game has some decent potential for an LP of sorts... currently relearning a buncha stuff about it as I play through...   Too much of a pain in the arse to figure out a way to take screenshots from PS2/PS3... 

But....  I do have access to a PC version... with fan translation and fancy add-on...   And... apparently the save/load function of the PS3 for it... is bjorked.  So what the hay...  This will indeed resemble a LP of sorts.

Nice good luck can't wait to read it

[Zangi]

Well, here is a start at creating custom characters... 

I do not have anything unlocked, yet.  So that means I cannot pick and choose skills....  It means I'd have to spend the time to grind out 30 skills for a character if ya'll want me to do so.  Otherwise, I will have to update the character submissions to reflect that.  Well, I need to update it anyways.

Spoiler: Gao Hai v1 (click to show/hide)

So yea: Go and unlock more customization or change character submission? Screw it, here is the deal: Everyone gets to pick 1 skill at most if they want.  I'll try to get that.

EDIT:
Cast Members:

Alkhemia: Gao Hai
EuchreJack: Zen Fen
Sheb: Zen Daiyu Daughter of Zen Fen
warhammer651: Zen Lao
Jarod Cain: Sun Cain


Supporting Cast:

Grandma: Zen Matron Mother of Fen and Lao, grandma of Daiyu


So yea, anyone else want in?  Changes?  I'll probably start this around...  Thursday, if nothing gets in the way.

Hmm Navy then why not~

Hmm Navy then why not~

Repetitive clicking of the Random button has told me that I will not get the Navy skill, among some others.  Not till I unlock things most likely. 

I should change those profiles into spoiler pictures.

I'm sure that Wise does not allow Navy to be chosen.  I'm looking into the other choices.

What little I know:
Leader focuses on troop command skills, so it might allow Navy.
Jack-of-all-trades allows a wide variety of skills, so it might allow Navy.
Average has unique workings (I'm not sure as I don't have the game working right now), so it might allow Navy.

Suffice to say, Navy requires a change of character class.  And to be honest, it's rather unnecessary, as advanced ships do either the same or more than Navy, and can often be made in those territories in which the Navy skill would be useful anyways.  Out of all the "unique" skills, it's effect is the least unique.  Besides, one Navy officer is just going to get himself or herself killed: They'll land on the shore without backup and get gangbanged by the enemy into extinction.

And what Era are you planning to play? If you want to start in 184 i.e. Yellow Turban Rebellion, you'll need to be at least 15 at the time; meaning you'll need to set your officer's birth year to 179 or lower.

Are you starting as a free officer or attaching yourself to a force in the beginning?

Would've preferred Fire or Confuse considering that high Int. Taunt isn't really that useful without being able to do some actual damage. Refute would be nice in case you get into a debate with someone with particularly nasty abilities; but you haven't unlocked it yet.

No other real preferences aside from considering an officer that dislikes booze being heresy.

[Jarod Cain]

I'm fine with what you got.
-J-

I remember when I tried to get the "Officer bonuses" for custom officers in 8.

Honestly they were absolutely malicious in making you get them. (worse yet, I got 2 of the bonuses but due to save issues... I didn't get them. I had the skill one for unlocking all skills and the item one for unlocking all items. The one I didn't have was getting all endings)

Does this game have something like that?

I did the repetitive clickings under all the personality type things I believe, maybe.  I was on auto-pilot when I did it, could try again.  Also, yea, I made it a point to not explain any of the skills... cause I already know which ones are the most usefully exploitable and what-not.



I am probably going to let ya'll choose between the first 3 scenarios, I'll put a screenshot and explanation of each up later.   

Historical Events On/Off
3 difficulties; Normal, Advanced and 'Super'
Advanced, other kingdoms are more aggressive to the one the player(me) is in.  Also, income nerf.  Can't see loyalty among other things of officers.
'Super', I've got no clue, but I'm betting the aggressiveness is going to be upped a bit more, with more income nerf.  I havn't found anything that explains it.  Since... the English PC version of the game has never been released... it is all Japanese with whatever the translation patch covers.
Apparently there is a PS2 emulator out there...

[EuchreJack]

I've never seen or experienced the "Super" option.  So go that!

[hostergaard]

Hey, I saw this LP and decided to try the game (RTKX), I managed to figure out most things, but now I am stuck. I had a child, I think, and I believe the game wants me to name it, but nothing I type in works. Help please?

[EuchreJack]

You probably need to copy-paste an appropriate name in Japanese.
EDIT: Note that I have no actual experience with your problem.  It's just something I thought I read somewhere about the Japanese PC version of one of the ROTK games (probably 8 ) and having children.
