31 Steps to Beating "Destiny of an Emperor"
Introduction
This is a step-by-step guide that will walk you through Destiny of an
Emperor, one of the more challenging RPG games for the NES. Capcom based the
game on actual events that took place in China during the tumultuous second
century, known as the Later Han Era, and retained the real names of the
Chinese Warlords involved in the power struggle. The people at that time
were plagued by a ruthless band called the Yellow Scarves. Three Warlords
answered the peoples' cries for help and set out to restore peace in China.
Defeat The Yellow Scarves
Begin the game in the town of Lou Sang and follow these steps to find and
defeat the Yellow Scarves.
Step 1: Talk to everyone in town. Get money and food from one of the
villagers .
Step 2: Visit Xu Zhou, Qing Zhou, Mt. Da Xing and Tie Men Xia. At each
place, search for weapons and armor and talk to everyone to get information
about the Yellow Scarves.
Step 3: Convert Han Zhong to add him to your party. Go to Qing Zhou Cave and
enter to fight the three leaders of the Yellow Scarves, Zhang Jao, Zhang Bao
and Zhang Liang.
Step 4: Return to Xu Zhou and go talk to the ailing Tao Qian, who lies in a
bed behind the Throne Room. He will ask Liu Bei to serve as the acting
Emperor, then he will give you information about Dong Zhou, who is
terrorizing Lui Yang.
Conquering Dong Zhou and Yuan Shu

Gold Key.

join you.

Dong Zhou in the castle there, then invite your emperor, Liu Bei, to the

Yuan Shu’s death.

cannot defeat him at this point. After you’re defeated, try going north
again. This time you’ll make it.
Step 12: Go to Bo Hai Castle and get the Gun Powder. Use the powder in Bo
Hai to free Xu Zhe, aka Dan Fu.
Step 13: Return to Bo Hai Castle. Now that Xu Zhe is in your party, you’ll
be able to exit through the upper castle area.

Jing’s house, where he’s known as Fu Long, and ask around. Someone there
will put you on the path to finding him.

rescue Liu Zheng from the prison, which you enter by the way of the Throne
Room’s upper right door. To free him, stand next to the door, face up, and
