Dear Lords,
Greetings! The brand-new Romance Scenario DLC, Huaxia Nine Regions：Water Margin, will officially begin its pre-sale at 10:00 AM on July 17! Gather at Liangshan Marsh, where legendary heroes unite and their valor shakes the land. Step into the turbulent world of the late Northern Song Dynasty and relive the epic saga of the 108 Heroes of Liangshan.
Huaxia Nine Regions：Water Margin Scenario Overview
This Romance Scenario is set during the reign of Emperor Huizong in the late Northern Song Dynasty. Players will begin their adventure as the Liangshan stronghold faction. To support this unique starting experience, we have developed an entirely new Stronghold System, serving as your base of operations in the early game.
This large-scale scenario introduces a wide range of new content, including the Stronghold System and Heroic Stars System, while completely overhauling the world map, troop system, official rank system, and technology system. Nearly 1,000 historically inspired officers have been recreated, each equipped with new abilities and exclusive equipment sets. Future updates will also introduce dedicated dispatch, exploration, and dungeon content designed specifically for this scenario.
Stronghold System
Strongholds are divided into Small, Medium, and Large tiers. Each stronghold contains four functional areas: the Council Hall, Barracks, Industries, and Harbor.
Investment Upgrades
Unlike ordinary cities that expand through domestic administration, strongholds are upgraded through an investment system. When Harbor Affairs, Barracks, City Defense, and Public Order each reach the required development milestones, players can increase the stronghold's size through the Expansion menu.
Industries
As a stronghold grows, additional land becomes available for industrial development. Players can construct a variety of industries, which will serve as the primary source of the stronghold's economy.
Map System
The world map has been completely redesigned based on the political landscape of China during Emperor Huizong's reign in the Northern Song Dynasty. In addition to the Song Dynasty, major powers such as Liao, Western Xia, and Dali have been added. The administrative structure has also been rebuilt according to historical records. For example, the Song territory is divided into 24 Circuits, which serve as the highest-level administrative regions. The new map also removes ports while adding numerous cities and strategic passes, bringing the total number of locations to 163.
The illustration below shows the world map, offering a preview of the overall layout.
The above content is currently under development. We will continue to share new features and updates as soon as they become available. If you have any questions or suggestions, please don't hesitate to let us know. Thank you once again for your continued support. The The Last Warlord development team will continue doing its very best to bring you the best possible experience.
