Dynasty Warriors 6/Musou Mode

Musou Mode in Dynasty Warriors 6 is restricted to 17 different characters (23 in Special). To compensate, each story now contains a total of six stages accompanied by narrative briefings and ten rendered movie scenes featuring a particular officer from beginning to end. Most of the new scenarios are loose adaptations on the novel with plot twists and what-if conclusions that break away from history.

Like in the last title, battles gradually become more challenging the further a player is during an officer's story. The game also borrows the concept of three-way battles from the Samurai Warriors series.

By this time, your allies should have capture the central foothill post. If not, go and help them. After both foothill posts are taken, Ma Chao and Wei Yan will appear. Quickly take them out before they take down your allies. After the threat is defeated, capture the southern foothill post. With all three foothill posts taken, a cutscene will play with Sima Yi launching a fire attack on the enemy main camp.

Target 3 complete.

After that, Ma Su and the other remaining enemy officers should now be leaving their main camp. Make sure you are the one to take out Ma Su while dealing with all other officers.

 * Target 2: Secure 7 or more enemy bases within 10 minutes. (500 EXP)
 * Target 3: No allies withdraw. (800 EXP)

Victory Conditions: Defeat Cao Cao

Defeat Conditions: The Shu Main Camp is taken by the enemy

Guide: This battle is very difficult because of two reasons. One, there is no full restore on the battlefield, so you're going have to build up your renbu slowly, and the other reason is that your allies can die very easily, which will fail Target 3. Not only that, it is a six star stage.

Start by avoiding the southern foothill base and instead go to the centre and take out a enemy officer. At least rate, Wang Ping will struggle, so after that, go to the north foothill base. The gate should be open, since Wang Ping is attacking. He will have his health in half however, so quickly take out the two officers attacking Wang Ping. After the officers are defeated, capture the north foothill base. Now here comes the difficult part, you must quickly capture the central foothill base and the southern foothill base. If you are to slow, Sima Yi will launch his fire attack on the Shu main camp, lowering ally morale. Also, it must be done quicly to support Target 2. Zhang He should be guarding the southern foothill base, so quickly defeat him first, then capture the central foothill base. Now that the fire attack has been thwarted, Ma Su will order a attack, and all allied officers will advance. You still need to capture one more base to complete Target 2, so go to the center eastern base to capture it.

Target 2 complete.

At the same time, Sima Yi should activate the barricade in the center, lowering ally morale. Two enemy officers will appear, so quickly defeat them to restore ally morale. If Ma Su is defeated, the allied morale will be greatly decreased, so becareful. Wang Ping should be struggling at the Northwestern base, but he'll withdraw after a while, so don't worry about him for now. After the two enemy officers is defeated, Ma Su will order a total withdraw. However the officers that was attacking Wang Ping will attack, so quickly take them out. After that, while your army is withdrawing, is best to go and take out Cao Ren and Xu Huang quickly. That is because Liu Bei will show up later with his army and launch a full attack at the same time. With allied morale greatly increase, Cao Ren and Xu Huang will be taken out by your allies. Focus on them and you should get Target 1.

Target 1 complete.

Now that Liu Bei has shown up and the allied morale greatly increase while attacking, focus your attack on the main officers, especially Sima Yi. At the same time, Cao Pi and Zhen Ji will appear to attack. Wang Ping at least rate will be in danger, regardless of the morale, so quickly take Cao Pi and Zhen Ji out. After that, go back to the center and take out the remaining officers. Don't take too long in the center, as Wang Ping will attack Cao Cao alone. He however, will be supported by Liu Bei's forces. Now quickly defeat Cao Cao while watching out for his rockslide attack. If all your allies(including the allied reinforcement led by Liu Bei) all survived, you will get your third and final target.
