Final Words 9. Contact Information 10. Legal Stuff 1. Introduction ======================= Warriors Orochi is KOEI's first game which combines the two popular series, Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors. And when these two are combined the results are 79 playable characters, 60 stages and many, many different dialogs and conversations. The purpose of this guide is to cover all those dialogs and conversations (excluding cutscene conversations and different quotes), from peasant's "Save me!" to Orochi's "But they are so frail...". It's hard, but not impossible. In case you wonder why I started a project like this, it was simply because I was bored. After unlocking all characters and 4th weapons in WO, I wanted to spice things up while leveling up my characters. Right now, I have most of the regular conversations gathered from all 60 stages. I'm still missing many character dialogs and I'm working on those now. Thanks to the help I've received (and I still do), I hope I'm able to include all character dialogs in this guide some day. Okay, I think that's all. But before you move to the character sections, make sure you read "Legend" section first. Enjoy. "Difficulty faces you, but you must read on and make your way to the last section. The typos in the FAQ are formidable. Only a fool would jump into their midst. If you wish to survive, you must find a way to the last line." --------------------------- 1a. Version History --------------------------- 01/06/08 - Version 0.95 - The first version of this FAQ is finally done. And it only took 4 months from me... However, I still haven't written down all dialogs I've found so far. I'll try to add all of them in the coming updates. 01/12/08 - Version 0.96 - Big update. Added more dialogs for the following characters: Shu: Zhao Yun, Shu 2-X - Nan Zhong Xing Cai, Shu 6-X - Tetorigawa Ginchiyo Tachibana, Shu 2 - Hasedo Jiang Wei, Shu 2 - Hasedo, Samurai 5 - Guan Du Musashi Miyamoto, Shu 6-X - Tetorigawa [YA] Zhuge Liang, Shu 6-X - Tetorigawa Wei: Zhang Liao, Wei 6 - Chen Cang Mitsunari Ishida, Wu 3 - Odani Castle Zhang He, Shu 2-X - Nan Zhong [E] Huang Gai, Wei 6 - Chen Cang, Wu 3 - Odani Castle Diao Chan, Wu 5-X - Anegawa, Samurai 5 - Guan Du Wu: Sun Ce, Wu 2 - Chang Ban, Wu 3 - Odani Castle Ieyasu Tokugawa, Wu 2 - Chang Ban, Wu 3 - Odani Castle, Wu 4 - Osaka Castle, Samurai 2-X - Kawanakajima [E] Hanzo Hattori, Wu 4 - Osaka Castle Ranmaru Mori, Wu 5-X - Anegawa Zhou Yu, Wu 4 - Osaka Castle Taishi Ci, Wu 4 - Osaka Castle Lu Meng, Wu 4 - Osaka Castle Sakon Shima, Wu 2 - Chang Ban [E], Wu 3 - Odani Castle [YA], Shu 2 - Hasedo No, Wu 3 - Odani Castle Da Qiao, Wei 3 - Xia Kou Samurai: Nobunaga Oda, Samurai 5 - Guan Du, Samurai 6 - Fan Castle Mitsuhide Akechi, Samurai 4 - Tong Gate, Samurai 5 - Guan Du, Samurai 6 - Fan Castle, Shu 2 - Hasedo Hideyoshi Toyotomi, Samurai 2-X - Kawanakajima, Samurai 3 - Kyushu, Samurai 4 - Tong Gate, Shu 2 - Hasedo, Wu 5-X - Anegawa Huang Zhong, Samurai 5 - Guan Du Zhang Jiao, Samurai 3 - Kyushu [E], Samurai 4 - Tong Gate Xiao Qiao, Samurai 5 - Guan Du, Wei 3 - Xia Kou, Wu 3 - Odani Castle Okuni, Samurai 4 - Tong Gate, Samurai 6 - Fan Castle, Wei 5-X - Five Gates Lu Xun, Samurai 3 - Kyushu Cao Ren, Wei 3 - Xia Kou, Wei 6 - Chen Cang Kanetsugu Naoe, Samurai 5 - Guan Du Other: Da Ji, Wu 2 - Chang Ban [YA] NPC: Samurai 5 - Guan Du Made some dialog unlocking methods more accurate: Shu 2-X - Nan Zhong: If Jiang Wei's ambush is succesful, approach him as Character A Wei 3 - Xia Kou: Approach Ranmaru Mori without having Cao Pi or Mitsunari Ishida in your team. Wei 5-X - Five Gates: Approach Lu Bu without having Zhang Liao or Mitsunari Ishida in your team.

Also corrected some typos. --------------------------- 1b. Legend --------------------------- - Use Ctrl + f to find character sections quickly and easily. You can find the codes next to the character names. Remember to type codes with capitals. - [E] stands for Enemy and [YA] for Yellow Ally. However, there are few things you should know about them: * <<>> [E]/[YA] = Character says all of his/her lines as enemy/yellow ally. * At the beginning (E)/(YA) = All characters who speak are enemies/yellow allies (only used in NPC section). * Niu Jin (E)/(YA) = Character who speaks is enemy/yellow ally (only used in NPC section) - In case you don't understand all of my conversation unlocking methods, I'll explain the most common ones: * At the beginning = The conversation happens automatically and (almost) immediately when the stage begins. * Approach Character B (enemy/yellow ally) = Simply approach the character in order to hear the dialog. Sometimes you need to switch between characters to hear more dialogs. * Approach Character B as Character A (player) = You need to approach Character B as the right character. If your team includes two characters who have a dialog with Character B, you can only hear one of the dialogs. * Sometimes characters may speak more than once under the same condition. These are indicated with an empty space between the conversations, like this: At the beginning: Major: "Lord Sun Ce is under heavy attack on the northern by-path!" Zhao Yun: "We must help him!" Zhao Yun: "Divide into two units. The first will rescue Sun Ce. The second must attract enemy's attention." 2. Shu Characters [SHUC] ================================= --------------------------- 2a. Zhao Yun [ZHA] --------------------------- <<>> At the beginning: Zhao Yun: "That man, he appears to posses great mystical powers... perhaps he is the famous Zuo Ci?" Approach Mamushi: Mamushi: "You! Are you planning to escape with that woman?" Zhao Yun: "That woman?" Ginchiyo: "I am not just a woman, I am a Tachibana!" Approach Ginchiyo Tachibana: Zhao Yun: "I take my eye off for you a second, and you're already my match in battle!" Ginchiyo: "I thought you might hold us back, but I was wrong to worry." Xing Cai: "And it seems you are more than just a big mouth too..." Ginchiyo: "Do not push your luck, woman." Xing Cai: "Not just a woman... I am Xing Cai." Approach Zhang He: Zhang He: "The quest for life is a beautiful thing... but death is even more so, at my hands." Zhao Yun: "Naturally. Everything is to you, isn't it... but I care not for that. Beautiful or not, I will dispatch you!" If Zhao Yun is in danger: Zhao Yun: "Our lord, he lives?! I cannot perish before seeing his face one more time! I shall cut a swathe of carnage through any army that faces me!" If Zhao Yun is defeated: Zhao Yun: "My lord, I have failed you..." Reach the escape point: Zhao Yun: "Safety at last! We must dive into danger and rescue my lord!" <<>> At the beginning: Zhao Yun: "Hold on, Yue Ying! We'll have you out of there soon!" Approach Magoichi Saika when he reuqest aid from the Coalition Army: Magoichi: "Thanks. If you're after the woman, they took her north." Zhao Yun: "You mean my lady? Thank you!" Magoichi: "Hey, I'm coming too. I can't let another guy get all the credit for saving a beautiful lady. We'll do it together. Come on, you're gonna need all the help you can get!" After Magoichi Saika has promised to help the Coalition Army: Magoichi: "The name's Magoichi. You must be Zhao Yun." Zhao Yun: "That's right. You also are part of the Resistance movement?" Magoichi: "I guess heroism just runs in my blood, y'know... That, and that girl was hot!" Rescue Yue Ying: Yue Ying: "A million thanks. I am in your debt." Zhao Yun: "We're not out of the woods yet, my lady. Follow me, and I shall lead you to safety." Approach Mitsunari Ishida: Mitsunari: "Give it up. Don't disgrace yourself with a futile resistance." Zhao Yun: "While hope remains for my lord, I will never surrender!" Once Da Ji arrives: Zhao Yun: "That woman, is she one of the enemy too?" Yue Ying: "That is Da Ji. She is Orochi's strategist." Magoichi: "So she's a nasty piece of work, huh? But she sure is one foxy lady!" Once ambush party appears: Zhao Yun: "An ambush! We've been outfoxed!" Yue Ying: "A perfectly timed ambush... Ruthlessly efficient waves of attack... This is all too familiar for my liking..." Approach Pang De: Zhao Yun: "Do as you must, but I will never lose to the lackey of a snake!" Approach Zhuge Liang: Zhao Yun: "I respected you... Wherefore must I fight you now?" Zhuge Liang: "You never change, do you? Reach the escape point with Yue Ying: Zhao Yun: "We've lost them... But why would Zhuge Liang have allied himself with such evil...?" Yue Ying: "He said the moment was not yet at hand... I know he must have a plan. He must! <<>> Once Zhao Yun lures out the enemy officers: Zhao Yun: "Then I shall act out as the bait..." Lure both enemy units to center: Zhao Yun: "They've bitten! Now is our chance!" Yoshihiro: "Ha! They're on the hook! Beat 'em to pieces!" Jiang Wei: "The enemy are in no-man's land! We must strike!" If Orochi Army reinforcements appear in the northeast: Zhao Yun: "The guards from the Ueda have arrived too. Bad timing." <<>> At the beginning: Zhao Yun: "The castle is completely surrounded. Is it Orochi's army?" Magoichi: "No, it doesn't look like those snake dudes... Either way, we'd better get moving! If we take this shortcut, we'll be there in no time!" Messenger: "Hey, look, phantoms everywhere!" Zhao Yun: "Phantoms...? Who're they talking about? Not us?" Magoichi: "Come on, look at me! I'm a red-blooded male. No one's gonna mistake me for a ghost." Zhao Yun: "Yes, yes, I'm sure you're right. But for now, if we don't stop those imposter messengers, it could be chaos." Approach the messenger units: Zhao Yun: "Those pesky messengers must be working for Orochi." Magoichi: "A cunning plan, huh? ...So, those guys laying siege to the castle, they..." Zhao Yun: "They probably think they're fightning evil phantom versions of us." Magoichi: "I know not everyone has my brains, but come on, they've gotta be pretty stupid for falling to that!" Approach Wei Yan: Wei Yan: "Liu Bei... not... here... I... fight... Find... Liu Bei..." Zhao Yun: "My lord... He is not here! How is that possible? I will not give up! I believe, no, I know, that he is still alive!" Approach Yukimura Sanada: Yukimura: "Such skill... I cannot believe a mindless specter could ever match me with a spear..." Zhao Yun: "Trust what your spear is telling you! I am no specter! But maybe you need more convincing!" Once Coalition Army launches counter-attack: Zhao Yun: "Fight back! Give all your strength!" Approach Da Ji: Zhao Yun: "I should have known you would be behind this!" Da Ji: "No one told you were coming!" Clear the stage: Magoichi: "Liu Bei is not even here...? You mean I did all that for nothing?!" Zhao Yun: "My lord... I wonder where he can be..." If Wei Yan is defeated: Zhao Yun: "Cheng Du has fallen! Now we may never know where my lord is..." <<>> At the beginning: Zhao Yun: "Orochi's evil tentacles stretch even this far..." After you've talked with Meng Huo: Magoichi: "That big oaf should learn some manners. I'd stay and teach him a lesson... But I'm out of time, y'know how it is..." Zhao Yun: "But I cannot turn my back on innocents in need. These are the teachings of Shu... the teachings of my lord! We must split up and help!" <<>> Approach Kotaro Fuma: Zhao Yun: "Out of my way, I am in a hurry!" Kotaro: "Come... Indulge me for a moment." Zhao Yun: "Ah! it's another one of those snake-men!" Approach Okuni: Zhao Yun: "Are you chasing after that thief too?" Okuni: "Goemon is no thief... He's the greatest burglar of our age." Zhao Yun: "You make that sound like something to be proud of." <<>> At the beginning: Zhao Yun: "There is no time to lose!" Discover one enemy ambush party: Zhao Yun: "Strange... This was so obvious, not at all like Zhuge Liang... Almost as if he wanted us to see through it..." If Zhao Yun is the first person who enters the south garrison: Zhao Yun: "My lord is imprisonated beyond this very door. Finally... Finally I can rescue him!" Approach Zhuge Liang: Zhao Yun: "I cannot understand you... What is it that you want?" Zhuge Liang: "You do not understand because you let your heart rule your head. Your spear is ready to fight your true enemy." Approach Sun Quan: Sun Quan: "So, you are prepared to discard your life to save Liu Bei... Be warned. For the future of Wu, I am prepared to take your life." Zhao Yun: "You talk of the future of Wu, and yet you are a slave to Orochi!" Clear the stage: Zhao Yun: "He was not here either... Do not despair, my lord! Hold out, and I promise I will come!" <<>> Approach Masamune Date: Zhao Yun: "I see greatness in you. You shall be a worthy challenge!" Masamune: "You flatter me... But flattery only gets you killed!" <<>> At the beginning: Major: "Lord Sun Ce is under heavy attack on the northern by-path!" Zhao Yun: "We must help him!" Zhao Yun: "Divide into two units. The first will rescue Sun Ce. The second must attract enemy's attention." Once Wang Ping distracts the enemy forces: Zhao Yun: "Excellent! Keep them focused on you!" Rescue Sun Ce: Zhao Yun: "Sun Ce! My spear is at your service!" Sun Ce: "Never have I been happier to see a warrior of Shu!" Approach Cao Ren once he rallies himself: Cao Ren: "I am a rock! It will take more than you have to break through me!" Zhao Yun: "There are no defenses which my spear cannot penetrate!" After you have defeated enemy officers around Sun Ce: Zhao Yun: "We share a common enemy. We must overcome our differences, and unite against Sima Yi." Sun Ce: "My thoughts exactly! I'd team up with the devil himself if it meant I could see a panic in that smarmy face!" Zhao Yun: "Zhou Yu, you are renowed throughout the land as a brilliant tactician. I would like to ask you to lead our forces in this battle." Zhou Yu: "Understood. Watch, and you may learn something." Approach Kotaro Fuma: Kotaro: "Return to dust." Zhao Yun: "You're one of those snake-men, aren't you!?" Approach Sima Yi: Sima Yi: "Angering me will lead you nowhere but to the gates of hell!" Zhao Yun: "Then I will see you there!" <<>> Approach Musashi Miyamoto: Zhao Yun: "You're not bad with those swords, I must say." Musashi: "Not bad?! I'm the best, man!" <<>> At the beginning: Zhao Yun: "The castle keep looks the most likely location. Hold on, my lord, help is at hand!" Approach Zhou Cang: Zhao Yun: "Zhou Cang! What are you doing here?" Zhou Cang: "I cannot give my reasons. Withdraw, please." Zhao Yun: "I can never relent until my lord is safe, you know that!" Zhou Cang: "I do. But you should know that I cannot relent either." Once Sun Ce arrives: Sun Ce: "All right, here I am. Never let it be said that I go back on promise!" Zhao Yun: "Thank you for your aid, Sun Ce!" Approach Mi Zhu: Zhao Yun: "Why is this castle filled with the people of Shu? It makes no sense..." Mi Zhu: "I'm sorry, my lord. You must not pass here..." Zhao Yun: "I will use force if you persist." Approach Sun Ce: Zhao Yun: "It is good to see you here!" Sun Ce: "So this makes us even, right?" Approach Zhang Fei: Zhao Yun: "Zhang Fei! I am here to rescue our lord!" Zhang Fei: "...But I can't let anyone from the Resistance through!" Zhao Yun: "You and I shouldn't be at odds like this, if there is a reason, please tell me..." Zhang Fei: "Shut up! You don't know anything, you don't need to know anything!" Defeat Zhang Fei: Zhao Yun: "Forgive me, but my lord comes first." Approach the main keep's gate with Sun Ce after defeating Zhang Fei: Sun Ce: "I'll secure our exit! You go on and get Liu Bei!" Zhao Yun: "Understood!" Approach Guan Yu: Zhao Yun: "Guan Yu! I thought you and I were friends! Break free of your life of slavery, and help me rescue our lord!" Guan Yu: "I cannot... Not yet..." Defeat Guan Yu: Zhao Yun: "I hope you can forgive me. I promise, I will rescue our lord with these hands!" After you have escaped from the Edo Castle's main keep: Sun Ce: "So Liu Bei wasn't here after all. What do we do now?" Zhao Yun: "All we can do is to capture Da Ji, and force her to tell us where he is." Sun Ce: "Let's find that lying fox and show her just what does it means to have us as enemies!" Approach Zhuge Liang: Zhuge Liang: "I knew you would make it this far." Zhao Yun: "If you have some reason, then please, tell me!" Zhuge Liang: "I can say nothing. Be silent, and let your spear do the talking." Approach Da Ji: Zhao Yun: "Tell me now! Where is my Lord Liu Bei?" Da Ji: "Who? I have no idea who you're talking about... Heh, you should see the looks on your faces..." <<>> Once Tadakatsu Honda appears: Zhao Yun: "Who is that man? Never have I laid an eyes on such formidable warrior!" <<>> Approach Keiji Maeda: Zhao Yun: "Why would a man of your stature side with such evil?" Keiji: "Why do guys like you always divide things into "good" and "evil"? Wisen up already! Life's just not that simple, kid!" Approach Lu Bu: Lu Bu: "You wish to fight the mighty Orochi?! Don't make me laugh!" Zhao Yun: "This spear will not break easily, I assure you!" Approach Da Ji: Da Ji: "You're strong, how come you don't want to start your own clan?" Zhao Yun: "I am no leader. It is only my lord who is fit to lead this land." Da Ji: "I guess it's moot, as you'll be dead shortly." Approach Orochi: Orochi: "You shall have your precious lord. If you can defeat me!" Zhao Yun: "Finally, this day is upon us. My lord, your freedom awaits you!" If Zhao Yun is defeated: Zhao Yun: "I can go no further. My apologies. I leave the rest to you." <<>> [E] At the beginning: Zhao Yun: "Success! Now we can claim the enemy camp!" <<>> Approach Okuni as Zhao Yun: Okuni: "This battlefield is full of handsome men... Let's see if this one can fight!" Zhao Yun: "I-I... You think I'm handsome...?" Okuni: "Oh, don't look at me with those puppy dog eyes.... I'll lose the will to hurt you." --------------------------- 2b. Xing Cai [XIN] --------------------------- <<>> Approach the escape point: Xing Cai: "We should be able to get out over there. That's it! We're gonna make it!" <<>> Approach Magoichi Saika without having Hideyoshi Toyotomi in your team after he has promised to help Coalition Army: Magoichi: "Hello there, pretty lady. What's your name?" Xing Cai: "All you need to know, is that I'm way out of your league!" Magoichi: "Yoww... Are all the women of Shu like this?" Approach Mitsunari Ishida: Mitsunari: "Give it up. Don't disgrace yourself with a futile resistance." Xing Cai: "The only disgrace here is you." Mitsunari: "Oh, a smart mouth, eh? I'll soon fix that." Approach Pang De: Xing Cai: "Da Ji's obedient guard dog... Truly pathetic." Approach Zhuge Liang: Xing Cai: "I cannot fanthom it... Why would you side with Orochi?" Zhuge Liang: "You must travel on your path, and I on mine." <<>> Approach Yukimura Sanada before he meets Zhao Yun: Yukimura Sanada: "Poor soul, trapped in purgatory... I will return you to the underworld where you belong." Xing Cai: "What on earth are you talking about?! I'm not trapped anywhere - I'm as real as you are!" Approach Da Ji: Xing Cai: "You have strength... But there is something else, something vital, missing from you." Da Ji: "You just wish you had what I have!" <<>> Discover the first strange wooden box: Xing Cai: "How did that box get out here?" Approach Kotaro Fuma: Kotaro: "Come, pretty one..." Xing Cai: "...I've always been scared of clowns..." Approach Musashi Miyamoto without having Wei Yan in your team: Musashi: "Leave the guy alone, or face my swords!" Xing Cai: "You're all sweat and bluster. Out of my way!" Musashi: "Bluster, maybe, but I ain't sweating a drop yet!" Approach Goemon Ishikawa: Goemon: "You won't catch me so easily! I'm the greatest thief of all time!" Xing Cai: "There's no lower form of life than a thief!" Goemon: "Aw, leave me alone, girlie! This is no concern of yours!" <<>> At the beginning: Xing Cai: "Their defenses are too tight. We will never make it through!" Once the western allied unit halts its advance: Xing Cai: "Halt! Let's wait and see what happens for a bit." Once the western allied units resumes its advance: Xing Cai: "The enemy are on the move. Resume the march!" Once the western allied units accelerates its advance: Xing Cai: "All we want is their commander! Hurry!" Once the flank units advance upon Masamune Date: Xing Cai: "This all thanks to your brilliant plan! Thank you!" Approach Masamune Date as Xing Cai before Magoichi Saika talks to him: Masamune: "Out of my way! This is no place for little girls!" Xing Cai: "And it's certainly no place for little boys!" <<>> Approach Kotaro Fuma: Kotaro: "Return to dust." Xing Cai: "I'll do no such thing... But you can, if you'd like!" <<>> Approach Musashi Miyamoto: Xing Cai: "The floodgates? Leave them to me." Musashi: "It sure is good having someone around you can rely on." Xing Cai: "You just like having someone to do your dirty work." <<>> Approach Zhang Fei: Xing Cai: "Father... How could you...?" Zhang Fei: "What? Hey, I don't need your pity! Come and fight!" <<>> Once Tadakatsu Honda appears: Xing Cai: "Such presence... he reminds me of my father!" <<>> Approach Keiji Maeda: Keiji: "Look out! Here comes the wild man to break you in two!" Xing Cai: "That is the worst haircut I've ever seen..." Approach Orochi: Orochi: "You shall have your precious lord. If you can defeat me." Xing Cai: "I have a bright future ahead of me, and you are not a part of it!" <<>> Approach Oichi without having Cao Pi in your team: Oichi: "There is no point in lamenting our fate..." Xing Cai: "Isn't that kinda... pathetic?" <<>> [E] At the beginning: Xing Cai: "Fall back, and wait for assistance! Hold out! I will not stand out at any attemps at heroism!" Take the southern area before Sakon Shima arrives: Xing Cai: "They're attacking us from the south... Zhang Yi, fall back to the gate!" Prevent enemy reinforcements from arriving: Xing Cai: "The garrison has fallen, and back-up is not arriving! If enemy reinforcements arrive: Xing Cai: "Reinforcements at last! Now is our chance!" If Mt. Yamada Garrison's wall is destroyed: Xing Cai: "The walls... They've gone! Our only priority is to protect the main ward!" <<>> Approach Zhang Fei: Xing Cai: "Father or no father, I will fight for my cause!" Zhang Fei: "Why do you have to show up? I've got an image to maintain!" --------------------------- 2c. Yoshihiro Shimazu [YOS] --------------------------- <<>> Approach Ginchiyo Tachibana: Ginchiyo: "I suppose you are one of Orochi's servants, Shimazu?" Yoshihiro: "Orochi? Nothing but a worthless eel - needs to be boiled in a pot!" Ginchiyo: "I plan to slay Orochi. If you get in my way, you'll go too!" Zhao Yun: "All right, we can carry this friendly chat later. For now, we must hurry!" Approach the escape point: Yoshihiro: "Come on! I want to have some goons to flatten!" <<>> Approach Mitsunari Ishida: Yoshihiro: "Hiding behind your serpentine mama... Have you forgotten the ferocity of Shimazu?!" Mitsunari: "Forgotten? I never once thought you were fierce." Approach Pang De: Yoshihiro: "I'm gonna bust that shell of yours in half!" Approach Zhuge Liang: Yoshihiro: "This is indeed an honor, to test my strength against the strategist of yore!" Zhuge Liang: "And I look forward for witnessing wherefore you are labeled the devil." <<>> Once Yoshihiro Shimazu starts his advance: Yoshihiro: "Time to set the bait!" Once Yoshihiro Shimazu lures out the enemy officers: Yoshihiro: "Come on, out you come... Here, fishy, fishy..." Approach Zhang He as Yoshihiro Shimazu: Zhang He: "Must you stomp about like that? There is no beauty in such behaviour." Yoshihiro: "You and I have very different ideas of what constitutes beauty, I think." <<>> Approach Wei Yan: Wei Yan: "Liu Bei... not... here... I... fight... Find... Liu Bei..." Yoshihiro: "Wonderful! For a minute there I thought our days were up." Approach Yuan Shao: Yuan Shao: "I am a true noble! Do you really think that a few ghosts will frighten me?! Show them the courage of Yuan family, and send their spirits hence!" Yoshihiro: "Sounds like your family was a little too exclusive, if you know what I mean." Approach Da Ji: Yoshihiro: "A pixie... Hmm..." Da Ji: "Who are you calling a pixie, you troll?" <<>> Approach Pang De: Yoshihiro: "Where did you get that armor? It looks foreign... What are you doing here?"

Cao Pi: "Reinforcements are on their way. Until then, we must keep the enemy at bay." Approach Huang Gai: Huang Gai: "I owe you a beating, and it's coming now!" Cao Pi: "I thought I taught you that a small posse of bandits is no match for Orochi. But if you weren't paying attention, I suppose I'll have to repeat myself." Approach Mitsuhide Akechi: Mitsuhide: "This blade will measure your caliber." Cao Pi: "It cannot be measured by your puny knife." Approach Zhuge Liang: Zhuge Liang: "It is somewhat unexpected to see you following Orochi's orders so obediently, Cao Pi." Cao Pi: "As it is to see the mighty strategist of Shu here." Zhuge Liang: "Hmm... I look forward to witnessing your performances." If allied commander is defeated: Cao Pi: "I had no idea Nobunaga had grown so strong..." <<>> At the beginning: Cao Pi: "The bridge is down, and we are isolated from our camp. Send Zhang He to defend it." Zhang He: "You once had a beautiful dream, of total domination! I cannot follow you when you take orders from such a misshapen beast." Cao Pi: "And you were once a loyal soldier of Wei... Things change. Move with the times." Approach Zhang He: Cao Pi: "Zhang He. If you do not follow my orders, you will be punished." Zhang He: "You expect me to sully myself by fightning for an animal?" Cao Pi: "No, I expect you to honor your duty by fightning for me." Zhang He: "Very well, I have faith in you." Approach Zhao Yun: Zhao Yun: "How can you throw away your pride like this and side with the forces of evil?" Cao Pi: "I have nothing to say to one so blind." If Zhang He joins you at the end of the stage: Cao Pi: "A wasteful battle, but it was not total waste of time." Clear the stage without rescuing Zhang He: Cao Pi: "And for now victory is important." If allied main camp falls: Cao Pi: "Our camp has fallen. All forces, withdraw." <<>> At the beginning: Cao Pi: "So, Sun Ce has already made his move... What of Sun Quan?" Mitsunari: "He's chasing after his brother... I think he figures he's gone too early." Cao Pi: "Give him all the aid he needs. Sun Ce must not escape!" Approach Mitsunari Ishida after Ranmaru Mori has appeared: Cao Pi: "Just who is that boy?" Mitsunari: "A companion of Nobunaga's. He's surprisingly handy with that enormous sword." Once Da Ji arrives: Da Ji: "Hey! You still haven't caught Sun Ce?" Cao Pi: "How wonderful to see you, our illustrious leader." Approach Ranmaru Mori: Cao Pi: "What is it about Sun Ce that makes you care so much?" Ranmaru: "I see his greatness, and I want to believe." Approach Zhou Yu: Zhou Yu: "You won't lay a finger on my lord!" Cao Pi: "Escape by sea - very cunning indeed." Approach Sun Ce: Sun Ce: "I won't be caught!" Cao Pi: "Then you'd better straight swimming, little fish." Once Zhou Yu arrives: Sun Ce: "Prepare to launch the boats. We'll buy some time!" Cao Pi: "So, he means to escape by sea." If Sun Quan is defeated: Sun Quan: "Brother, you are tragically misguided... Cao Pi: "You should have kept your head, Sun Quan. But this result pleases me..." Defeat Sun Ce: Sun Ce: "You were the better man. What are you going to do with me? Cao Pi: "Nothing. You may go. And Orochi's grip weakens..." <<>> Approach Goemon Ishikawa: Goemon: "Oh! Hey you! Help me out here, will ya?" Cao Pi: "I have no obligation to help a petty thief." Goemon: "Aw, don't say that, pal. I'll make it worth your while." Approach Kunoichi: Cao Pi: "And just who might you be?" Kunoichi: "I know, I know. I'm so beautiful you can hardly believe your eyes, right?" Approach Kotaro Fuma: Kotaro: "I am Fuma, the winds of chaos." Cao Pi: "Who are you? You look like an ally, but you stand in our way." Kotaro: "I am chaos... Ally of none, enemy to all who strive for any goal other than the perpetuation of pandemonium." <<>> At the beginning: Cao Pi: "We will attack the enemy from the flanks. We will head south. You officers of Wu go west." Sun Shang Xiang: "Fine. Leave it to us!" Defeat Xiahou Dun: Xiahou Dun: "Not bad... But you haven't earned my respect yet, youngster!" Cao Pi: "Then would you like to give me another chance?" Once enemy engineers appear: Cao Pi: "The enemy has a plan in motion. Stop it." Approach Sun Shang Xiang: Sun Shang Xiang: "What's the matter? Why aren't you fightning?!" Cao Pi: "I will do this my own way." Sun Shang Xiang: "I don't know about you, but some of us have our parent's lives on the line here..." Defeat Xiahou Yuan: Xiahou Yuan: "Beating me doesn't mean anything..." Cao Pi: "If you're still not satisfied, have another go." Approach Pang Tong: Cao Pi: "I could use your cunning. How would you like to fight for me?" Pang Tong: "Well, I've got no mind to serve Orochi - if that's what you mean... Cao Pi: "Listen carefully. I said, how would you like to work for me?" Pang Tong: "Heh, thought so. Okay, you have yourself a deal." Defeat both Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan for the second time: Cao Pi: "You would both be of great value. Come, work for me." Xiahou Dun: "Orochi has crushed Wei... I am not fit to serve..." Cao Pi: "Wei is about to be revived." Xiahou Dun: "So, it seems there was truth in what Nobunaga said... Very well. You shall have my aid." If the allied main camp falls: Cao Pi "The plan has been derailed. Retreat." If Cao Pi is defeated: Cao Pi: "Impressive... Everyone, retreat." <<>> At the beginning: Mitsunari: "Fire everywhere... Flashy. We'd better not hang around. This could be fun. You have anything in mind?" Cao Pi: "There is only one thing to do. Hunt Da Ji down." Cao Pi: "We are struggling at the north castle gate. Things will go more smoothly if we can lure them inside the castle." Head downstairs of the castle: Cao Pi: "It will help if we lure the enemy in to the north." Mitsunari: "I guess I'll meet up with Huang Gai in the south, then." If both Cao Pi and Mitsunari Ishida are in your team when you head downstairs of the castle: Cao Pi: "He ought to keep that side safe. We will pull back our forces inside the gate." Once Da Ji's ambush party appears in the north side of the castle: Cao Pi: "A pathetic attempt at an ambush. Not a decent warrior in sight." Approach Cao Cao: Cao Cao: "You would turn your back on your father?!" Cao Pi: "My father would not lecture me on something so trivial." Defeat Cao Cao: Cao Pi: "Fools. Did they really think I would fall quaking before the phantom version of my father?" Approach Huang Gai after defeating Sun Jian: Cao Pi: "Have you become so senile that you cannot tell the difference of a phantom and reality?" Huang Gai: "Phantom or not, I cannot raise my weapon against my lord." Approach Da Ji as Cao Pi: Cao Pi: "I'll make sure you never bewitch anyone again!" Da Ji: "Care to put your sword where your mouth is?" Clear the stage: Mitsunari: "That was a little tougher than you'd planned, wasn't it?" Cao Pi: "Immaterial. A victory is victory." <<>> Approach Dong Zhuo: Dong Zhuo: "Filthy flies, hovering around a pot of honey! I'll swat you all away!" Cao Pi: "My ambition is not so fleeting as to be swatted away by your sweaty palm!" <<>> At the beginning: Mitsunari: "Nagamasa's one of these "love and honor" types. He won't do anything "dishonorable", trust me." Cao Pi: "And I suppose I am not trustworthy. Fair enough. I will prove my worth to him in this battle." Cao Pi: "You can make for the enemy castle via the by-path. You understand?" Da Ji: "...You don't trust me, do you? Relax. I'm not going to do anything I shouldn't... just yet..." After the first wave of enemy reinforcements have arrived: Messenger: "The enemy reinforcements have been delayed." Cao Pi: "Excellent news. Let's keep them waiting." Approach Oichi: Cao Pi: "I'm sure one as perspicacious such as you can see my true intent. And yet you still choose to fight?" Oichi: "I simply follow the orders of my lord Nagamasa." Defeat Oichi before all enemy reinforcements units arrive: Cao Pi: "This ought to prevent their reinforcements from arriving." If all enemy reinforcement units arrive: Cao Pi: "So they've finally got through... No matter. A few more insects to crush will make no difference." Approach Gan Ning: Gan Ning: "You ain't getting my head that easy!" Cao Pi: "I have no interest in your head. What I want is your skill." Approach Nagamasa Azai: Nagamasa: "You will need to show everything you have to get by me!" Cao Pi: "I fully intend to." Clear the stage: Nagamasa: "My lance... has proven unworthy..." Cao Pi: "Do not be ashamed. You have fought well." If you lose the allied main camp/Cao Pi is defeated: Cao Pi: "I did not pay due caution..." <<>> At the beginning: Cao Pi: "We must crush Dong Zhuo's army of oppression! We will attack from the front. Zhen, you advance from the east." Enter the one of the garrison after the enemy sorcerers have appeared: Major: "Some sort of prayer is taking place in the garrison!" Cao Pi: "So that is where their strength comes from. Take down the garrison!" Defeat one enemy sorcerer: Cao Pi: "There must be more in other garrisons. Destroy them all!" Once Xiahou Yuan approaches one of the roused enemy officers: Xiahou Yuan: "There's some sort of strange magic behind this... We could be in real trouble." Cao Pi: "Magic is easy, once you know how the trick is done." Once you have neutralized Fuma ninjutsu in the center: Cao Pi: "This obstacle has been overcome. Advance." Once enemy phantom soldiers appear: Major: "W-what's happening?! Our attack don't work on them!" Cao Pi: "More meddling conjurer's tricks. Find those responsible, and slaughter them." Approach Zhen Ji after fake Cao Pi has attacked her: Cao Pi: "Calm down, my love, I am here." Cao Pi: "How dare you do that to her! You will pay dearly!" Rescue Zhen Ji from the fake Cao Pi: Cao Pi: "Zhen, it's all right. It's all over." Zhen Ji: "My lord... You saved me..." After you have defeated all enemy sorcerer and rescued Zhen Ji from fake Cao Pi: Cao Pi: "Their trickery has run its course. All forces, advance!" Approach Kotaro Fuma: Cao Pi: "You have been something of a thorn in my side." Kotaro: "I am disappointed, Cao Pi. Your rebellion only serves to undermine the cause of chaos. That is why it must not succeed." Approach Dong Zhuo: Dong Zhuo: "Filthy garbage! What right have you to turn against your betters? I'll teach you a lesson with my own two hands!" Cao Pi: "You are the only filthy one I see here." If Zhen Ji joins you at the end of the stage: Zhen Ji: "I will never leave your side again, my lord." Cao Pi: "I would love nothing more than to hear your beautiful melodies, my lady." If Zhen Ji is defeated: Cao Pi: "Zhen has fallen... We must all retreat." <<>> At the beginning: Cao Pi: "Eastern unit - attract the enemy's attention. The rest of us will claim Mt. Tenno while we have the chance!" Approach Zhuge Liang: Cao Pi: "It has been a while, has it not? Since Tian Shui?" Zhuge Liang: "It was from that time that I knew you were waiting for an opportunity to turn." Claim Mt. Tenno: Cao Pi: "Use their cannons against them!" After Sima Yi has launched an enemy ambush party in the eastern route: Cao Pi: "I thought as much. Stay calm, and react appropriately." Once Da Ji defects to the Orochi Army: Mitsunari: "So, she's finally turned on us..." Cao Pi: "I only wonder what took her so long." Approach Sima Yi: Sima Yi: "Dear Lord Cao Pi, I am so glad to see you are well." Cao Pi: "And I you. It makes it so much more satisfying to kill you." Once Xu Rong and Hua Xiong charge toward the allied main camp: Cao Pi: "They are after our main camp! Stop them with your very lives!" Approach Da Ji after she defects: Da Ji: "I'm really sorry about before. I didn't mean to betray you." Cao Pi: "You meant to all along." Once Cao Cao Army arrives: Cao Pi: "Father, you have stayed alive all this time?" Once Cao Cao Army advances: Cao Pi: "My father will not claim all the glory for himself!" Approach Cao Cao: Cao Cao: "You have led our people well in my absence, my son." Cao Pi: "I am sure your arrival will boost the soldiers' morale still further." Approach Dian Wei: Cao Pi: "You have done a fine job keeping my father safe." Dian Wei: "I would gladly sacrifice my worthless life to save my benevolent lord!" Approach Dong Zhuo: Cao Pi: "What blinded you so much that you would side with Orochi?" Dong Zhuo: "All I care for is the creation of my grand paradise. Orochi can make that happen!" Clear the stage: Cao Pi: "This wil be our final battle. Find your courage, and go forth." <<>> Once Tadakatsu Honda appears: Cao Pi: "He looks like he could be some use." <<>> At the beginning: Cao Cao: "My son, I will be the commander of this battle in name only. Go, you have an army to lead." Cao Pi: "Yes, my lord. Listen up! This will be our final battle. Orochi's time is done. We must restore Wei to its rightful place!" Cao Pi: "First we must claim the enemy cannons! Sally forth, my elite forces!" Approach Keiji Maeda: Keiji: "Orochi 'n me are good pals now, so don't expect to face him until you've dealt with me first! And I promise not to make this easy for you! Ha ha!" Cao Pi: "You realize it is miscreants like yourself who bring disorder to this world?" Keiji: "Yeah, well, somebody's gotta make life interesting, right?" Once Da Ji releases the boulders: Cao Pi: "How typical of Da Ji. Always trying something underhanded." Approach Da Ji as Cao Pi: Cao Pi: "You and I can play together no longer!" Da Ji: "That's such a pity... I promise I'll visit your grave." Seize three enemy cannon fortresses: Cao Pi: "Only one outpost remains. Seize it!" Approach Masamune Date as Cao Pi: Masamune: "Only the truly great can rule. If you can't understand that, then I'm afraid you forfeit the right to live." Cao Pi: "The way I see it, you haven't brought nothing but pain to this land." Masamune: "That's because you are too short-sighted to see the big picture." Seize all enemy cannon fortresses: Cao Pi: "Let Orochi taste the wrath of our cannons!" After Orochi has lowered Koshi Castle's drawbridges: Cao Pi: "The bridge has been lowered. Hold your fire! Advance, and slay the Serpent King!" Approach Lu Bu: Lu Bu: "Come on, you insects! No one is getting to Orochi without going through me! If you value your life, leave now!" Cao Pi: "If you wish to stand in my way, then I must simply go over you." Once the gates of Koshi Castle open: Cao Pi: "Show Orochi the might of Wei!" Approach Orochi: Orochi: "Only the worthy have made it. Now I shall see for myself the strength of mankind." Cao Pi: "Before my ambition, you will be powerless!" Orochi: "Such anger."

If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself..." <<>> [E] Escort two Cavalry units to the ambush point: Cao Pi: "The enemy cavalry may be on the move... Sally forth into the by-path and cut down all you see." If three Cavalry units are defeated: Cao Pi: "To set an ambush right in front of our main camp - a bold tactic indeed Unfortunetly, their plan had one fatal flaw... They forgot about me. Kill them!" <<>> [E] At the beginning: Cao Pi: "The water does not seem to have dampened their fevor any... But at least it keeps their reinforcements from arriving." Once Sun Quan withdraws: Cao Pi: "Sun Quan has withdrawn, I see... In the end, I can only rely on myself." Once Xiahou Dun arrives: Cao Pi: "My father's retainers still spend their lives chasing his ghost, I see." Approach Cao Pi: Cao Pi: "First, let me express my admiration for how you have fought thus far. Then, a caution: You shall go no further."
