Presenting the Dynasty Tactics Items Guide. On this page you can find out
what the various items in the game do, where they are found, and several
additional tidbits of information regarding them. I am even listing a trick
you can use to get more powerful troop types faster (if you don't mind
using what could be called a "cheat").
The Dynasty Tactics Item Guide is currently a work in progress. As
additional information is discovered or submitted the guide will be
updated until it is finally complete.
This guide is one of many features of Kongming's Archives, a Web site
Dedicated to games based off the Romance of the Three Kingdoms Novel
(e.g. Dynasty Warriors, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Dynasty Tactics).

SECTION V - SKILL ALTERATION ITEMS
----------------------------------------
"Skill" type items allow you to change the Skill of the equipping officer
(e.g. Giving Xu Shu the Crescent changes his skill to Menace). A complete
list of all possible skills along with their functions can be found in the
manual. Also note that some officers don't need the item they originally
come with in order to have that skill (e.g. Guan Yu and Cao Cao). You can
safely take their items away without changing their skill.

SECTION VI - TROOP TYPE TRICK
----------------------------------------
Go to an officer that is of the same troop type as a troop type experience-
enhancing item you already own. Equip the item to increase their class
experience. Now, upgrade the officer's troops to a better version of his
troop type (e.g. Cavalry to Brigadiers). Now go back and unequip the type-
enhancing item. Your officer will still have the better troop class, even
though he isnIt using the item. You can go from one officer to the other in
your army increasing the troop types with no limit. You can even equip new
items without loosing the prematurely enhanced troop type.
