Destiny of an Emperor: Yuan Shao's Revenge

What it is

Yuan Shao's Revenge is a long-running mod of Capcom's NES strategy RPG Destiny of an Emperor by MiDKnighT, one of the many hacks made by the game's dedicated fan community around the Three Kingdoms setting. As the name says, it puts the spotlight on Yuan Shao, one of the great warlords of the late Han period.

What's new

The mod redesigns the roster of officers, the battles and the tactics, so veterans of the original face different fights and a different balance from start to finish. It has been updated many times over the years, reaching the 3.x series.
