00:03Sì wu zong chien zan da sisi si doi
00:16Hello and welcome to this head-to-head Three Kingdoms Spotlight
00:20I'm joined by Tom once again to have a look at some of the changes that we've made to
00:24multiplayer campaigns in Total War Three Kingdoms we are playing as the two bandit characters
00:30I'm playing as Zheng Jiang and as you can see Tom is playing as Zheng Yan
00:34So we have got a nice start position next to each other so we're quite close
00:38We've actually got each other's capitals right next to each other
00:41Which makes it pretty easy to set up your coalitions and trade routes together
00:45But these are two characters with very hard start positions
00:48They are so we're on turn 24 right now
00:52So we've played a little bit and we've had we've had some struggles some turmoil
00:55But as you can see I've expanded quite far out here and I can only because we're not in any
00:59sort of alliance yet
01:00I can only see this point to your trade
01:01Yeah to your trade route just here
01:03But should we talk about a little bit how
01:06Head-to-head have changed now so obviously they're a bit more dynamic
01:08So previously where you'd pick are you being co-op or are you playing against each other
01:13Now you just start
01:15Yeah
01:15And it's you know it's just it's as I said much more dynamic
01:18You use all the new diplomacy options that are in Three Kingdoms that add you know
01:22Add so much to the game and you can use those to either we can form a coalition
01:26Or we can do other things like that
01:28So let's at the moment just so people know we're swapping between screens
01:31Yeah
01:31We can tell if we're on wheels of screen because James Yang's just over there
01:35And we're on my screen there we go
01:37And the nice thing as well is that we've got ourselves in different graphic settings as well
01:41So I've got the records mode post-processing on
01:44And you've got the romance mode
01:45So you'll also get a little bit of a color difference as well
01:47So yeah as you said the main difference between the sort of previous multiplayer campaigns
01:52That you might have played in other Total War games is the fact that
01:55As you said it's fluid now
01:56So there's no actual hard lock to cooperative
01:59You're not forced to be in alliance with each other
02:01But you're also not forced to kill each other
02:03So if you open up the diplomacy options now
02:04We've actually got a brand new one which is to share the mandate of heaven
02:08So if we open up with Jingjang
02:09So we can go under our diplomatic treaties
02:12And this is to pledge to share the mandate and win together
02:15So we make an unbreakable pledge sharing the mandate of heaven to achieve a joint victory in cooperation
02:20So this is kind of like a hard lock to setting yourself as in an alliance essentially
02:26And what that means is not only are you in an alliance
02:29But your actual count of how many settlements that you control will actually pool together
02:33So once you hit that emperor rank
02:36You can actually pool together once you've gotten the three seats of power
02:39Under one of your or both of your control
02:40You can then have all of your settlements pooling together into one number
02:44And that means that you've got a larger empire together
02:46Once you hit that win condition you both win together
02:49Yeah definitely
02:50And then there's more informal stuff before you get to that late stage
02:53Because you can obviously use that right at the start if you want to
02:56But that's much more useful towards that kind of mid to late game place
02:59Where your emperors have been declared
03:02And you're like well where are we going
03:03Where do we want to sit in this place
03:05Do we want to go against each other or do we want to have an alliance
03:08Of course before that you can form a coalition
03:10So I've now achieved high enough rank that we can form a coalition together
03:13Shall we?
03:14Yeah let's do it
03:15Let's form a coalition
03:16So I'm obviously going to propose this deal to you
03:18And then as you can expect if we fade over to my screen
03:20I'm going to get that as an option for myself as well
03:23And of course diplomacy works as you'd expect between both of your factions
03:27You can set up your own deals
03:29We can trade ancillaries and all that kind of thing
03:31We can give each other territory
03:33If we've maybe taken something over
03:35And it's actually part of another person's commandery
03:37For example you could
03:39For example you've got Taiuran right next to you
03:42And I'm actually trying to get that last bit of territory
03:44So if you were able to take that over
03:46You could gift that over
03:47And maybe I could give you something in return
03:48And one of the nice things as well is that
03:50And because that's such a manoeuvrable and flexible system
03:53The new diplomacy overhaul essentially that we've done for Total War Through Kingdoms
03:56It means that you've got loads of cool new options
03:58That you wouldn't have been able to do in previous Total War games
04:01One of the more interesting ones that we highlighted
04:04Was the fact that if you use your marriage proposals
04:08So let's say that you have a character in your faction
04:11That you don't mind getting rid of
04:13One thing that you can do
04:14Is load up that character's military
04:16His retinue with all of your unique units
04:20That only your faction can generate
04:22So we can literally do that right now actually
04:24So we can recruit your special units
04:27Perhaps your Black Mountain Outlaws
04:29Which is something that I don't get access to
04:31And then we've also got the Black Mountain Marauders
04:33Which you don't have access to
04:34So we'll load a couple of those
04:35So they're going to tank your income
04:37But it's fine because you're sending them over my way
04:39But that means that once I accept that character
04:41Into my faction through marriage
04:43I'll actually have those units for myself
04:45And as long as I don't get rid of them
04:46They'll keep replenishing as well
04:47So I can actually
04:48We can sort of share each other's unique units
04:50Which is a really cool way of playing through it
04:52Yeah definitely
04:53And obviously you can trade food as well
04:55So you currently have a lack of food
04:56So we can trade something for that as well
04:58And any items we can just communicate between each other
05:00And trade those between us
05:01And of course there's some sneaky things
05:03We can do Michael as well
05:04So with the new
05:05We're on my screen aren't we
05:06Yeah with the new spy system
05:09I
05:09Obviously this isn't working great
05:11Because I'm sitting right next to you
05:12Yeah
05:12Obviously you want to be a little bit more sneaky about this
05:16If you're trying to do it to your friend
05:17What we've also done is
05:17Because I've now used on my income
05:19I need to borrow 300 gold from you Michael
05:22I can give you 300 pounds
05:24So I can spy on you
05:25So if I just request a payment
05:28Yeah
05:29I'm just going to request 500
05:30Oh wow
05:31That's fine
05:32I'll send that over
05:33Just for the sake of the video
05:34Yes
05:35For the sake of the video
05:36For the sake of the people
05:38And then if I go to spies
05:40I can then hire
05:41This guy right here
05:42Click on yourself
05:44And deploy a spy there
05:45So next turn
05:47That spy will be in your faction
05:49And it won't actually
05:50It won't tell you when I'm doing stuff
05:52So I'll be doing things in here
05:53And you know
05:53Reducing your movement range
05:55And messing with your armies
05:56If you happen to hire that character
05:58Yeah
05:58It would just be triggering
05:59Random events
06:00Which do happen anyway
06:02So you know
06:03You would be none the wiser
06:04So I could be
06:05Playing along the whole time
06:07And we'd be in a coalition
06:08We're all happy
06:09And happy and joking around
06:10It turns out
06:11I've got four or five spies
06:12In your army
06:12And you know
06:1350% of your forces
06:15Are actually
06:15I know exactly
06:16What you're doing
06:16But of course
06:17You can do the same to me
06:19So
06:19Yeah
06:19And that's one of the nice things
06:20About listening through a campaign
06:21Is the fact that
06:22You don't have to
06:23Continuously
06:24Be locked to that
06:25One win condition
06:26If you were to do a head-to-head
06:27In a previous game
06:28You only win if you actually
06:29Destroy the other person's faction
06:31In this case
06:32You know
06:32We could actually
06:33Put aside our differences
06:34Halfway through
06:35And think
06:35Wow we're getting
06:36Completely annihilated
06:37Whilst every other faction
06:38In the game is doing really well
06:39Maybe we should just give up
06:41On this whole
06:41Destroying each other thing
06:42And actually just work together
06:43And maybe once we get to a point
06:45Where we're both quite strong
06:46And we feel quite confident
06:46We can actually go up
06:48Against each other again
06:49But
06:49Maybe I've been preparing
06:50That whole time
06:51Because I've got about
06:52Four spies in your faction
06:53Right now
06:54And of course
06:55As was mentioned
06:56In the mid-game
06:57The mid-game spotlight
06:58That you and Pete
07:00Did the other week
07:02Obviously once you become
07:02An emperor
07:03That does cancel alliances
07:04With all the other people
07:06That declare themselves
07:06Emperors
07:07So if we were the two
07:08Most powerful factions
07:09At the time
07:11You know
07:11Our alliance
07:12Will be broken
07:13By the game
07:14So it forces us
07:15To reevaluate
07:16Exactly what we're doing
07:17Yeah
07:18And can create some
07:18Really interesting dynamics
07:19Where you're just having to
07:20Put a lot of trust
07:21Into that person
07:22And obviously
07:22Your friends are gonna
07:24They're gonna mess you up
07:25And that's another
07:26Interesting thing as well
07:27Is that you can find yourself
07:28In once again
07:28These strange positions
07:29That only happen in this game
07:31Where for example
07:32Maybe you've been playing
07:33Second fiddle
07:33So you're fighting for quite a bit
07:34They've got a huge empire
07:35And you've just been
07:36Kind of like plodding along
07:37As their little mate
07:38Whilst they're basically
07:40You know
07:40Taking the bulk
07:41Of all the territory
07:42That means that they
07:43Could end up in a position
07:43Where they're super strong
07:44And they hit that emperor rank
07:46And they leave you behind
07:47Suddenly you don't have
07:48A seat of power
07:49And it's the other two factions
07:50In the game
07:51That have actually taken that
07:52Before you have
07:53So now
07:54You think to yourself
07:55Well maybe I can actually
07:56Just backdoor my so called friend
07:57Take his position of power
07:58Off of him
07:59And I've got a free emperor seat
08:00No definitely
08:01So what
08:02I think we're gonna
08:03We're gonna skip ahead
08:03A turn or two
08:04So that we can show
08:05A couple of the
08:06Interactions of the spies
08:08In my faction
08:09And yeah
08:10Let's do that
08:11Okay so
08:12A few turns ahead
08:13I've regained some cash
08:14By selling off some ancillaries
08:15And if we go into
08:16Our court screen
08:17What's this
08:18A mysterious new vanguard
08:19Has appeared
08:21Waiting employment
08:22So if we grab
08:23This boy right here
08:24Unbeknownst to me
08:25A spy of course
08:27From Tom's faction
08:28And you can see
08:29That this guy
08:30Is also
08:32You know
08:32He's not gonna have
08:33Any kind of
08:35Notifying trait about him
08:36So you can just be
08:37Completely
08:38Po-faced to your friends
08:39And say
08:39Yeah that vanguard
08:40Looks pretty good
08:41Maybe you need some cavalry
08:42In your faction
08:42That kind of thing
08:43And they can
08:44Unbeknownst to you
08:45Just join your faction
08:46And suddenly
08:47You know
08:47They've got line of sight
08:48They've got information
08:50On what's going on
08:51In your faction
08:51Not only that
08:52Of course
08:53At some point
08:53I'm probably gonna
08:54Raise him in my arms
08:54As well
08:55So if we go down here
08:56Changyungyung is available
08:57For hire
08:59And all of a sudden
09:00You've got your
09:01Army abilities
09:02Available to you
09:02As well
09:03Yeah definitely
09:03So let's skip ahead
09:04Another turn
09:05And then we'll have a look
09:06Because the abilities
09:06On this screen
09:09So next turn
09:10And we go back
09:11Over to Tom
09:12And you can see
09:13That there he is
09:14In your undercover network
09:15Just been hired
09:16And also been made
09:17A general as well
09:18So as you've seen
09:19In the other spy videos
09:20For every sort of rank
09:23I guess
09:23Of different actions
09:24That you can have
09:25Available to you
09:25They're all linked
09:26To that person
09:27Having a certain rank
09:28In my faction
09:29So for example
09:30If I were to
09:30Actually adopt them
09:32At some point
09:33Or maybe even
09:33Marry her
09:34Zheng Zhang
09:35To Changkongying
09:36Then you would
09:37Actually get access
09:37To those family tree
09:38Abilities as well
09:39Which are really
09:40Really deadly
09:41Yeah definitely
09:41And if you really
09:42Wanted to infiltrate
09:42Someone's family tree
09:43You could also
09:44Like during your
09:45Discussion about the
09:46Gameplay be like
09:47Oh I'm really struggling
09:48To keep hold of
09:49This key character
09:49Like they're so close
09:50To defecting
09:51And just pretend
09:52They've defected
09:53And then obviously
09:54Your friend could
09:55Especially with
09:55Zheng Zhang as well
09:56With that initial
09:57Marriage as well
09:58Like early on
09:59You could be like
09:59Oh no I've just lost
10:00I've just lost a key
10:01Character like
10:02I can't believe
10:03I was playing as Dong Zhuo
10:04And I've lost Lu Bu
10:04I can't believe
10:05He's gone
10:06You're of course
10:07Gonna
10:07You'll be like
10:08Oh I'm just gonna
10:08Steal Lu Bu
10:09Like what a cool
10:10Character like
10:10You might just
10:11Take to play along
10:12And take that
10:13And not even that
10:14Like you might just
10:15Be like oh no
10:15It's fine
10:16He's appeared in
10:16My recruitment pool
10:17It must have been
10:18Because I was
10:18Right next to you
10:19And then you're like
10:19Oh yeah fantastic
10:20Yeah now you can
10:21Hire him as your heir
10:23And all of a sudden
10:24You've got all of
10:25These great options
10:26And maybe you can
10:26Actually end up
10:27Killing their faction
10:28Leader with Lu Bu
10:29Which is pretty damn
10:30Cool
10:30Yeah definitely
10:31And that's why
10:31You know
10:32And you might get
10:33All the way to the end
10:34Of the campaign
10:34Before realising
10:35And you might
10:36It will just be like
10:37Hours and hours
10:38Of gameplay
10:39And you're just
10:40Constantly playing along
10:41Hard secret to keep
10:43Yeah absolutely
10:44So yeah there's
10:45Loads of new options
10:47Just from the fact
10:47That it is
10:48Multiplayer campaign
10:49In Three Kingdoms
10:50This is the interesting
10:51Thing is that
10:52The new systems
10:52That we've added
10:53Because they
10:54All work in multiplayer
10:55That means that

10:56These new toys
