Romance of the Three Kingdoms Tactics is a mobile strategy simulation game produced by QOOKKA Games with an official Koei Romance of the Three Kingdoms license. It opened in February 2021 and is already in its 4th year. It is very popular in China, Korea, and Japan. There are quite a few users in Korea as well. It has a solid user base with over 100 million downloads worldwide.

A special feature and difference of Romance of the Three Kingdoms Tactics is that it is a 'seasonal' game and has an easy system that can be quickly understood if you have played the existing Koei Romance of the Three Kingdoms series. The core of Romance of the Three Kingdoms Tactics is to form a unit with one main general and two sub-generals. There are a huge variety of tactics that can be used for each general, and the elements that create synergy with each other are quite complex, so you can have fun like playing a deck-building game. In addition, it often collaborates with other Romance of the Three Kingdoms games, so you can meet fresh new generals.

It can be said that there are almost no parts that express women in the official history or the novel of Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Of course, there were no female generals who went directly to battle or led troops to fight, and even in the biographies of generals who had actual daughters, there are only one or two lines of explanation. It seems that they mainly played political and social roles such as marriage, alliances, and diplomacy. It's a little different in Romance of the Three Kingdoms games. Famous women such as Diaochan, Daqiao, and Xiaoqiao have appeared since the early series of Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

The female generals collaborating in this Romance of the Three Kingdoms Tactics are '#UnmatchedCaiWenji' and '#UnmatchedZhenji' who appear in Dynasty Warriors Empires. Both female generals are very popular in Dynasty Warriors Empires. Zhenji was actually Yuan Xi's wife in history, but became Cao Pi's wife, and Cai Wenji is a fictional character.

The first general to look at, '#UnmatchedCaiWenji', is Zhang Fei's daughter. Unlike her rough father, it's interesting that she always has a calm and cool personality that is not swayed by emotions. Cai Wenji has appeared since Dynasty Warriors 4. Although the background and description have changed slightly for each series, her cool and chic personality, always training mindset, and fighting style with shields and swords have become her trademarks.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms Tactics' #UnmatchedCaiWenji also makes good use of these characteristics. #UnmatchedCaiWenji's unique tactic is 'Instant Counterattack', which provides a shield to herself and the main general. When this shield exists, you gain a state of immunity to control effects with a certain probability. It is a support-type general that can show much higher performance as the allied general is stronger.

If you additionally equip a tactic that can give greater benefits to the main general in the #UnmatchedCaiWenji unit, the main general of the #UnmatchedCaiWenji unit will have even bigger wings. The tactics I would like to recommend are 'Seize by Surprise' and 'Phalanx Formation'.

'Seize by Surprise' is a tactic that greatly increases combat sustainability by healing the allied forces with the lowest strength each time the person with the highest strength deals weapon damage, and 'Phalanx Formation' is a 'main general all-in type' tactic that slightly reduces the damage of the deputy general but greatly increases the damage of the main general. Instead of Phalanx Formation, you can choose 'Arrogant Plan' or 'Plunder the Multitude' to apply debuffs to the enemy and increase the flexibility of operation.

The main general that goes best with this #UnmatchedCaiWenji is definitely 'SP Guan Yu'. He is a general who can play a strong main dealer role. #UnmatchedCaiWenji, who can block various debuffs with a certain probability through the shield, is a very good match. In addition, if you add Liu Bei, who can increase combat sustainability by restoring health, the power of 'SP Guan Yu' is doubled. The Cai Wenji combination that was most often seen on the General Experience Server was this SP Guan Yu, #UnmatchedCaiWenji, and Liu Bei.

The second general is '#UnmatchedZhenji'. She is a real person who appears in the actual history and novel. In the novel, she is described as having jade-like skin and a flower-like appearance, and she always appears when talking about the beauty of the country along with Diaochan. In Dynasty Warriors, she has the character concept of a sexy older sister, and she often says lines that are a bit too lewd.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms Tactics' #UnmatchedZhenji also makes good use of this character, and the name of her unique tactic is 'Jade Beauty'. With a certain probability, she recasts the active tactic once on odd turns and receives a dodge effect on even turns, preventing damage evasion and effects from attacks. It is not unconditionally cast, and the probability changes depending on the charm. So, this Zhenji needs to fill the remaining tactics with high-efficiency active tactics.

The most recommended tactics are 'Scheming' and 'Guan Yu's Wound'. I filled it with active tactics that are easy to use. I can increase the activation rate of active tactics through 'Scheming', and increase the unit's sustainability through ally debuff removal and troop recovery with 'Guan Yu's Wound'.

Since the active tactic that is re-activated with Zhenji's 'Jade Beauty' is not affected by the cooldown, you can choose a powerful tactic such as 'Temporary Victory', which inflicts poison and continuous damage on the enemy, to be in charge of the unit's firepower.

The combination of 'Unmatched Cao Pi and Unmatched Zhenji, Cao Cao is also good, but the combination I personally recommend is SP Xun Yu, Unmatched Zhenji, SP Guo Jia. The main general, SP Xun Yu, is in charge of the unit's tanking with 'Gi Gam Seonsik', and Unmatched Zhenji can be in charge of debuffs and recovery while using 'Scheming' and 'Guan Yu's Wound'. The moment Unmatched Zhenji activates the active tactic twice with Jade Beauty, she can change the difficult battlefield situation in an instant. The main dealer is in charge of the combination of SP Guo Jia.

The Romance of the Three Kingdoms Tactics Musou collaboration, which starts on May 1st, also starts an event that provides a free 5-star master general Unmatched Zhenji and 10 recruitments upon participation. You can also get gold coins to recruit generals, and various rewards such as silver seals and Three Wars Land Goods random boxes. And from the 1st to the 7th, a collaboration benefit package will be sold that allows you to acquire one Musou general unconditionally within 20 times per person.

In particular, an event that beginners may find helpful is the 'Jeonbo Sharing' event, which runs from May 3rd to 7th, where many users share combinations and usage methods of Cai Wenji and Zhenji. It would be helpful to refer to what is useful when dealing with a specific deck from how to use it.

In addition, there is an event to build relationships with Musou generals in the game and obtain gold coin rewards and collaboration-limited appearances, and an event where a mysterious beautiful voice actress descends on the Musou collaboration, so I think it would be a good idea to take an interest in Romance of the Three Kingdoms Tactics this time.
