Try posting in the tech forum. Maybe someone has it.

Have you even read the book? I assume this is a video game version which is sad. Trust me, read the book(s) then play the game. It's much more rewarding.

I once had a discussion with Korean middle school teachers and one commented on how there's a say'n: "Anyone who has read Romance of the Three Kingdoms three times, you can have a conversation with them about any topic." I read it once and regrettablely shipped the books home. I sure wish I had read it twice more.

If you haven't, don't cheat by reading the abridged version. I read the version translated by C.H. Brewett-Taylor. http://threekingdoms.com/
It's long, about as long if not longer than War & Peace, but it's big cool points if you mention that you've read it in Korea and it is a very interersting story. If you like that then move onto another book loosely titled "General Yue-fei". Another Asian classic. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yue_Fei#The_Story_of_Yue_Fei

I got into the 2nd game when I was a kid, and read the book first when I was about 12. I've read it a few more times since then. It's an amazing story.
