The Heroes or Warriors system is not just a unit in battle, but the core that connects RTS, RPG, and management systems. Detailed features include:

1. Recruitment & Classes

The game features over 350 historical and literary figures from the Three Kingdoms era.

• Recruitment: Players can hire wandering generals at the Inn using gold, with costs depending on the general's level and the player's reputation. Building multiple inns increases the variety of available generals.
• Classes: Generals are divided into four main types based on their specialty: Attacking, Defensive, Wizard, and Intelligence, each with different starting stats and growth potential.

2. Progression & Skills

The game incorporates RPG elements through levels and skills:

• Leveling: Generals gain experience (EXP) from battles to increase ranks from level 1 to 9.
• Level 9 milestone: Level 9 is critical, unlocking Passive Health Regen, unavailable in levels 1–8.
• Skills & Mana: Over 40–50 skills are available, consuming mana to cast. Generals earn 2 skill points per level-up to upgrade skills up to level 9. Example skills include Heal, Clone, and Berserk.

3. Governance & Loyalty

Generals play a key role in city management:

• Official Titles: Generals can be assigned to four administrative roles: Public Security, Science Officer, Ritual Officer, and Management Officer.
• Loyalty: A critical stat to prevent defection or surrender. Loyalty increases through rewards such as gold or promotion, which has five levels. Higher-level generals require higher rewards to maintain loyalty.

4. Battlefield Tactics

• Mounted Combat: Generals gain speed and attack power when riding horses; white horses provide the highest speed bonus (+2). If the horse dies, the general continues on foot.
• Supplies: Generals need food and wine to maintain Strength. If it drops to zero, loyalty gradually decreases even if morale is high.
• Revival: Dead generals can be revived at the Temple at a cost according to their level. Revived generals retain their horse if they had one before death.

Players can also use secret codes to manage generals, e.g., {levelup} to increase level or {ineedsuperpower} to grant special powers to the lord and high-level generals.
