HomeHome / Total War: THREE KINGDOMS / Lü Bu

CE194, A World Betrayed - Warrior Without Equal

Lü Bu is overlooked and insulted by those undeserving of his skill; a prodigious talent stung by the constant arrows of indignity. Although he undoubtedly did the land a service by ridding it of the tyrant Dong Zhuo, Lü Bu has felt nothing but the cold hand of derision from all those he has come to serve. Now, as Cao Cao's eyes are elsewhere, he has chosen to take matters into his own hands, rebelling against his liege's rule to forge a kingdom of his own.
