Romance of the Three Kingdoms enthusiasts know how much nicer the game looks and functions when run on the computer. It just doesn’t translate well to the constrained console screen! But Koei stopped releasing Romance of the Three Kingdoms for Windows in English with the fourth installation. Fortunately these games tend to be translated to English by fans. To preserve these translations and to share them with a larger audience we present them here… for your downloading pleasure!

Patch Installation
You must have a full installation of Romance of the Three Kingdoms XI in order to use the English patch. To install, download the .zip patch file using the link above, and use Windows or a decompression tool such as WinZip to open the file. Copy the San11_Eng.exe file to the same directory as your original San11.exe application file (do not delete the old file, you never know when you may need it). To launch the game with English translations, play with the San11_Eng.exe file instead of San11.exe.
Patch Troubleshooting
We have heard of very few issues associated with the game patch so far, especially with a full unedited installation of the game to work with. Some users who have modified files in order to make the game run without the actual game disc have to launch the original game executable, San11.exe, and exit out, before the English-patched San11_Eng.exe will launch (otherwise it silently dies with no error). San11_Eng.exe does not seem to modify any other game files, so other problems may be temporary, solved by restarting the system.
Patched Game Screenshots
The game’s primary title menus have all been translated sufficiently to allow efficient and intuitive navigation. You should have no trouble configuring the game resolution, creating a new game, and loading games that you have saved. Though it won’t be hard to access the Encyclopedia or Tutorial, both of those sections remain untranslated.

New Officers
Detailed sections, such as the windows for creating new officers, creating new games, and loading a game, have been translated enough that they are usable with a little inspection.

Load Game
Primary menus used for even obscure kingdom or game management functions have been translated at least in part. Detailed information tables which rely on city or officer names may still be difficult to use, as they remain untranslated, but this may change in the future. The small space provided by the game for these tables makes English translation more difficult.

City Selected
To help with with complicated and game-vital city menus, I have assembled a diagram which shows you how city menus interact. English translations for these menus are excellent, and for those of you who aren’t using the patch, this should help improve ease of game use significantly.
Translated City Menus
Most important information views, such as officer profiles, the China map, and the army preparation screen, all feature enough basic translation that they are usable with a little experimentation.

Description of Romance of the Three Kingdoms III: Dragon of Destiny
After the disappointingly easy Romance of Three Kingdoms 2, KOEI revamped the whole engine and introduce many enhancements for the third game in its flagship series. The results are mostly positive, although some might argue that the game is still much easier than the first game. There are many enhancements and new features.
First, RtK 3 places a much stronger emphasis on tactical battles. The game debuts the attractive isometric view of the battlefield, which makes commanding your army more exciting. It also introduces new units such as crossbow, strong crossbow, and cavalry. Size of castles are more realistic in the isometric view, and you can actually place units at various points inside the castle if you are defending against an invasion. Capital Cities such as Luoyang and Xu Chang have bigger castles compared to other towns, spanning almost the entire screen. This makes it more difficult to capture these cities, as the castle can house many more units of the defender.
There are also several new tactics, such as ambush and pitholes if an advisor is present in battle. On the downside, the game is much easier than RtK 1 if you have intelligent advisors (with 95 or above intelligence score). This is because their advices are so accurate that you already have a good chance of winning if you just blindly do what they say. Still, longer and more involved tactical battles help lengthen the game, especially in late stages when you are trying to break down the last strongholds.
Overall, RtK 3 is a fine sequel to a great series. Attractive VGA graphics and great soundtrack help bring medieval China to life. To prevent the game from ending too soon, though, play as a custom character instead and don't ask for advice from your advisors . Thumbs up!

สามก๊กภาคสาม เป็นอะไรที่ลึกซึ้งมากๆ เกมนี้มีมนต์เสน่ห์ทั้งรูปแบบของเกมที่สวยงาม เพลงก็หวานมากในโหมดการวางแผน ทัศนียภาพของประเทศจีนเหมือนดูภาพถ่ายจากดาวเทียมไทยคม1ฤดูกาลก็เปลี่ยนแปลงตามเดือนที่ปรากฎ การยกทับจับศึกต่อสู้ก็เหมือนดูฟุตบอลไม่มีผิดเพี้ยน การโกงเกมก็ไม่มีผลกับตัวละครมากนักนอกจากจะตั้งปีค.ศ.ให้มากกว่าที่ตัวละครในเมืองนั้นๆจะมีชีวิตอยู่ได้ ตั้งปีค.ศ.0ก็ไม่มีผลอะไรต่อตัวละครเลย เรื่องราวในนิยายสามก๊กจะยังคงดำเนินต่อไปจนกว่าผู้ปกครองนั้นๆจะยึดเมืองทั้งประเทศได้ เกมถึงจะจบลง

There seems to be a bug in this download. Cannot seem to un-delegate a city. A city becomes automatically deglated after conquering it.
