open/close all folders
Ling Cao
Ling Tong's father.
- We Hardly Knew Ye: The games only mentioned his death in Gan Ning's hands. Historically, he served with distinction under Sun Ce as well.
Sun Chen
Regent during the reigns of the emperors Sun Liang and Sun Xiu (both were sons of Sun Quan).
- Bad Boss: Executes his own men for their failures, even when the blame ultimately lies at the complacent top.
- The Neidermeyer: So much that his men willingly surrender to Wei the first chance they have, certain that they'll be killed with him in command.
- "The Reason You Suck" Speech: Receives one from Sima Zhao, before his execution.
- Sucksessor: From Sun Quan to this schmuck, though there was a bit of a sliding scale of people in-between who kept dying young or getting killed young. Ironically, by all accounts, he would have been better compared to his successor Sun Hao.
Zhuge Jin
The older brother of Zhuge Liang and father of Zhuge Ke.
- Pet the Dog: Like his elder brother, he tells Dan that being compared to a dog isn't necessarily a bad thing, as they can be quite crafty.
Yu Quan
- Undying Loyalty: Continues to fight for Zhuge Dan even after he kills Wen Qin, even if it means his death. According to his in-game's bio, when he received the reports that many of his allies surrendered to Wei, he doesn't know what else he should do other than continuing to fight.
Zhou Fang
- Fake Defector: Pretends to surrender to Wei to gain Cao Xiu's trust for an ambush.
- You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: Said to Cao Xiu after his deception is revealed.
Zhuge Ke
Zhuge Jin's eldest son, and a nephew of Zhuge Liang.
- Adaptational Wimp: Historically a capable military commander and tactician, and it was his attitude that brought about his downfall rather than his abilities.
- Insufferable Genius: Implied to be this.
- Sucksessor:
- Played with as he is to carry on his uncle's name as a strategist. Upon their encounter, Sima Yi is less than impressed.
- Goes even further in the expansion after Ding Feng executes an ambush on Wei's main camp, Sima Zhao notes that his own men has outperformed him again.
