Yuan Shao/Weapons

Here is a collection of Yuan Shao's weapons in the Warriors series.

Level 10 Weapon Acquisition

 * Stage: Battle of Guan Du
 * Requirements: Head for the southern castle, and protect he battering ram until the castle wall falls.

Level 11 Weapon Acquisition

 * Stage: Battle of Jie Qiao
 * Restrictions: No bodyguards
 * Requirements: Achieve an 100 K.O. count, and defeat each general as they appear, except Gongsun Zan.

Strategy

 * 1) Kill all the calvalry troops.
 * 2) Defeat Yan Gang and Zhao Yun when they appear.
 * 3) Cavalry ambush message, kill every single last one of them.
 * 4) Defeat Zhang Fei, and try to protect the enemy gate captain there.
 * 5) Defeat Liu Bei when he appears, and also try to protect the enemy gate captain there.
 * 6) Defeat all officers.
 * 7) Gongsun Zan appears with a cutscene.
 * 8) All gate soldiers killed message.
 * 9) Level 11 message.

Note: If a message that says something along the lines of "Yuan Shao's officers do not trust him", You've messed up. Also, if a message says along the lines of "the enemies are taunting Yuan Shao", you've messed up. Apparently sealing the gates AFTER the cutscene is part of the requirements. Try to clear as many soldiers around Zhang He as possible. If there are too many soldiers around him, he'll give up fighting, flee the battle and mess up your requirements.
