Dynasty Tactics Hints (PS2)

Dynasty Tactics is a video game which was created and published by KOEI Ltd. Inc. The game was released exclusively on the PlayStation 2 home gaming console from Sony. It arrived on September 11, 2002. The game is classed as being a hybrid between a role playing experience and a strategy game with elements taken from real life history which is being played from an isometric top down perspective.

Dynasty Tactics is a game spun off from the well-known and long-running Dynasty Warriors franchise which KOEI is still working on. The narrative arc of the videogame borrows quite heavily from Romance of the Three Kingdoms, a Chinese written epic that itself blends real life historical facts, mainly when it comes to the wars and battles that were fought, with fantasy elements.

In Dynasty Tactics players are able to select one of three military figures, each with different abilities and backgrounds, and then lead their armies to victory by gaining control over 60 cities on the map. The game relies heavily on military conflict to obtain control of a city, but there are also some diplomatic options which can be used. The battles are found on a 3D grid and each players takes turns moving his units and then watching the results of his actions. As with all Dynasty Warriors videogames, there are complex combo systems and the game offers multiple endings.

GAMEPLAY HINTS

Early unit types

If you have an item that increases the EXP of a certain unit category (for example, Arbalest - Archery EXP +30), equip it on a person with the corresponding unit category. After doing so, choose a certain unit type with the higher EXP points. After you have selected one, you can unequip the item, and have the new class with your basic EXP.
