Sinoepoch is a grand strategy game based on the historical fantasy of the Three Kingdoms period in Chinese history. In the current version, players can create their character, 'travel' to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, run their own family, compete or cooperate with the heroes of the Three Kingdoms to conquer the world, create their family legends. The amount of game text is huge, and the English version translation still needs to wait. It is recommended that non-Chinese players do not purchase for the time being. Due to the lack of development experience, the current game's English version of the UI has serious problems, please do not buy non-Chinese players, I will remake the UI afterward! ———————————————————— It's an Independent Game made by one person. Game Description Completed parts of the current game： 1、Starting in 184, choose a local powerful family and begin a life of chaos. 2、Role-playing part of the study of 'Taikaku Rishisen 5', the current installation of personal combat, drink, crusade against thieves, hunting and elimination of pests 4 mini-games. 3、The war section learns from Europa Universalis 4, where war requires a declaration of war and peace talks. According to the characteristics of the Three Kingdoms theme, battles are divided into two situations: field battles and siege battles. 4、The Merchandise Trade section learns from Age of Sail 4, where the player buys low and sells high commodities to gain money and increase the city's development. 5、Currently a plot line has been implemented, where the player gains prestige by attacking cities and gaining prestige, thus claiming the title of Duke and King until he is crowned Emperor. 6、The gameplay is divided into three distinct phases: the individual freedom phase, the primary power phase, and the power faction struggle phase. The game's mechanisms are centered around these three phases, such as the official position system, where players can only be assigned some magistrate positions in the primary power phase. Only after the Emperor is crowned will there be official positions such as Beijing officials and military officials to be assigned. 7、The game's current main historical events unfold from 184 A.D. to the period when the eighteen vassals fought against Dong Zhuo. 8、Players can marry the daughters of local clan and have children to continue the family line. The current game has a lot to be improved: 1、The game has no character portraits for now. 2、The game UI needs further optimization. Need to modify the UI module and add animation effects. Implement more complex UI including 'family tree search' and other functions. 3、Due to the large size of the map and limited code optimization capability, there may be slight lag at the large map seam switch. Subsequent game updates are planned: The current version of the game has implemented the basic framework for running a historical strategy game, but some of the mechanics similar to Crusader Kings have not been realized for the time being due to old code structure issues. Subsequent updates will center around remaking UI modules, making consoles, and updating the numerical system. Efforts will be made to reproduce the game system of Crusader Kings. Additional production careers and more mini-games to complete the role-playing career. According to the characteristics of the historical story, add more plot lines of claiming the emperor to meet different role-playing needs. Add support for more language versions. ———————————————— Game Features Realistic and Extra Large World Map The game world is very large and drawn according to the real map. For historical locations, refer to the Atlas of Chinese History. The locations that players can reach are divided into 13 states, 103 counties, a total of 967 cities, and 8 Passes. Numerous Historical Figures There are 1,002 characters in the current version. Family Business and Territory Management The core of the game is running your family. Players create their characters and 'travel' to the Three Kingdoms period in Chinese history. When the character dies, the player will control the descendants of the character to continue the game until the end time set by the scenario. If the player's control character has no descendants, the current control character dies and the game ends. So please get married and have children as soon as possible. The current version of the scenario is 100 years long (It also takes 20 hours if you don't do anything to let time pass). The starting point of a family is a city. Players can take over the world in troubled times by managing cities and recruiting troops. The Game Between Organizations and Nations All nations are organizations, but not all organizations are nations. Organizations in the game also include political entities with different strengths, such as princes, warlords, separatists, tyrants, and tribes. Organizations can be attacked, alliances can be at their disposal, for players to be friends or defeat. Character Progression and The Evolving World In the game, there are as many as 18 character attributes, and various skills can be developed when gaining enough experience points. There are also a large number of historical events and fictional historical events waiting for players to promote and witness. However, none of the above are mandatory game goals, and players can experience the game at will. The only objective that needs to be accomplished is to 'pass the lineage' to ensure that the game continues.
