Unlockables

Unlock the Bodyguard Manual

To get this item, play Cha Ren's Legend on any Difficulty Level. Defeat Han Dang and get to Niu Jin, on the way, kill as many enemies as yo can so his Morale increases, but don't kill Gan Ning til a message appears saying an item has appeared. Defeat Gan Ning before he kills Niu Jin, get the item and finish the stage. Best if you have a horse with you so you can get it quickly and help Niu Jin from Zhou Tai. It may take a few tries but it'll be useful for your Bodyguards.

Unlock the Shadow Harness

To get the Shadow Harness, play Cao Cao's Legend on any Difficulty Level. Kill all the Wu Generals. You will get a message saying an item has appeared. The Shadow Harness is the best Harness in the game, as it allows you to never be knocked off the horse.

War Drum

To unlock the war drum play as Meng Huo legend mode on any difficulty. You must defeat all gate captains and keep yours alive.
Tip: an easier way to do this is to do a 2 player gameplay because there would be to many troops and meng huo is not that fast exm if he goes to kill a gate captain a group of enemies would come and kill your gate captain and if you wonder why the gate captain dies so fast is because he wont fight back so this is why 2 players are easier have 1 person guard the gate captain and the other person kill the enemies gate captain when you kill all of them a valuable item will appear get it and complete the stage. Make sure you have a horse when you do this mission because meng huo is extremely slow.

Hints

Unlocking The Survival Guide

To get this handy item, play Jiang Wei's Legend on any Difficulty Level. Defend the gates til Liu Chan appears. DEfend the gates while preventing him to leave the gates to surrender to the Wei Army (hit the gong that's near the exit he's near to close it, but it also causes the other to open), and don't leave. Kill all the officers as fast as you can. A message will appear saying an item has appeared, but it's behind the gates that you're protecting so make sure you have a horse near you to get it and make sure that Liu Chan isn't near, or it'll be difficult to get. This handy item, when near death (the Health Bar is red) will increase your Attack x2.

Edit Character Weapon Motions

When you edit a character, you need to choose a weapon, each holding the movements and attacks of a certain character from a game. Here's a list of those weapons and the motions for them to create the character you wish:

   Sword 1-Zhou Yu     Sword 2-Cao Cao     Sword 3-Liu Bei     Sword 4-Sun Jian     Sword 5-Sun Quan     Sword 6-Dong Zhou     Sword 7-Yuan Shao     Sword 8-Huang Zhong     Sword 9-Gan Ning     Sword 10-Xiahun Yuan     Spear 1-Zhou Yun     Spear 2-Ma Chao     Spear 3-Jiang Wei     Pike 1-Zhang Liao     Pike 2-Lu Meng     Great Sword-Xu Huang  

Getting Duels To Appear In Legend Mode

To get a duel to appear, you need to be on a horse of any kind. Once on one, you need to get to an enemy officer. A sub-movie will appear, showing that officer, on the upper right part of the screen you'll get a message, press X and you've accepted. Best place to try is Zhoa Yun's Legend with a Harness equipped. It even works on Edited characters! If you win the duel, the morale of your team will increase, you can obtain items to increase your basic ability, and extra points are awarded when the stage is cleared. If you lose the duel, the game is over, so watch out.

A Hidden Monster

The more missions you complete, the more chances this will happen. In a Kingdom that had a Monster description on it, you may come across a Juggernaut (as seen in Yue Ying's Legend), that would be the monster. You won't get a notice on these, but they'll be near an enemy officer. If your character is not strong enough, try to avoid it as much as possible. Sadly, though, you get nothing if you do destroy them.
