San Guo Sha English Blog and e-shop remains in operation

Posted by Sino-Games Customer Service On 6:08 PM 39 comments
Dear Readers,

The original owner of the blog, Ricky, has moved on to his other commitments in family etc and I will be taking over this blog, as well as the e-shop at www.sino-games.com. I'd like to thank Ricky again on behalf of all the readers that has benefitted from his experience and effort to share the many stories that he has and to grow the community.

We have plans to continue to grow the community and if you have any ideas/suggestions, we would like to hear them.

As for those who have sent queries and/or posted orders, we seek your understanding as we sort out the logistics and get answers for you.

If you have any other queries, the mailbox is always open at sinogames@gmail.com. We look forward to your continued support and hope to hear from you soon. ;p

Thank you
Larry and Friends

  1. That's some good news! Give our thanks for Ricky and all the effort he's put in over the years!

    I know its a bit soon to expand on the site, but lots of new characters came out recently such as a ton of SP cards, 5 changed/new 标准版 characters, 一将成名2013 and the 4 balanced 一将成名2012 characters.

    I believe, there is also a new 3v3 version and a new 1v1 version is also coming out as well.

    As for suggestions, it may be long off but analysis of the game with rankings, combinations, general tips and tricks could enhance the site beyond a simple walk through. Though that may depend on how big this community is and whether its worth the time and effort.

  2. 1. Better organization of the site and fixing some of the broken links. For example, I can't access the basic rules from the menu.
    2. Reinstate forum or improve commenting system. There's no way to look back further on the "Latest SGS Questions" or to keep track of conversations, and there's no area for people to discuss new topics. If you make it easy for the community to participate, they probably will.
    3. Like above poster mentioned, update the large amount of cards that have been introduced (including new Q version).
    4. Perhaps translation of some of the important posts from some Chinese fan sites such as http://wangyou.pcgames.com.cn/zhuanti/sgs/ to give tips/rankings instead of doing it yourself to save time.

    Bug report: Main paragraph/text box for posts is cut off on the right side.

  3. First poster here again, I just thought of some more suggestions.

    The 2nd poster brings up good points, a threaded comment system would be perfect for answering questions and leading discussions. I felt the forum was underused so an improved comment system is the better alternative.

    An example of a good post to translate would be:
    http://wangyou.pcgames.com.cn/283/2837937.html
    A ranking of the character combinations for Kingdom Wars

    http://wangyou.pcgames.com.cn/281/2817072.html
    A ranking of characters in an 8 player setting

    I think this was mentioned somewhere before but some characters have FAQs already on their post. It would be helpful to translate the official FAQs. (http://dadao.net/sgs/ is well updated and complete)

    There used to be an unofficial card section. If the information is still there, it would be neat just to bring that back just for fun. Its probably not that popular or balanced in any way, but quite interesting nonetheless.

    Also many might know there's an unofficial SGS program where you can play against real people or the AI (can be frustrating sometimes) called 太阳神三国杀 or qsanguosha.
    http://qsanguosha.org/forum.php
    http://tieba.baidu.com/f?kw=%CC%AB%D1%F4%C9%F1%C8%FD%B9%FA%C9%B1

    I think it would be a nice post if you do a tutorial for that. Its actually quite easy to understand and easy to set up. But the interesting point is there is a card generator (unless you know LUA programming its only graphical) that will allow anyone to make a card for fun and to come up with interesting abilities. There are templates to be found on the program forums. This leads to my point: you can set up a competition and a community vote to see who has the most interesting cards and abilities. Almost like a English 一将成名 (Overknight Fame).

    Anyways just blasting my idea out there, may not be feasible, but hopefully can garner some interest! =D Keep up the good work on all the lore, abilities relationships to story and tactics!

  4. I would like to ask when the forum will be re-established? I am proficient in English and Chinese and would like to contribute to the translation work of SGS, but I can't find a platform to upload it. I would upload the translations once the forum is re-established, or another platform of SGS player is set up.

  22. You have actually created some exceptional points here. I specifically appreciate the way you've been able to stick so much thought into a relatively short post (comparitively) which creates it an thoughtful publish on your subject. In my opinion, you've presented the topic in a quite thorough yet concise manner, that is genuinely useful when somebody wants to get the facts without spending too a lot time searching the web and sifting out the noise to discover the answers to their questions. I usually get so frustrated with so abundant in the final results inside the major SE's due to the fact they normally seem to mostly be filled with filler content that often isn't extremely sensible. If you don't mind I'm going to add this post and your blog to my delicious favorites so I can share it with my family. I appear forward to approaching back to check out your future posts as well.

    A sample for you all

    Xu Shu
    Swords to Plowshares

    Ability 1: Exterminate the Vermins
    At the end phase of a player who does damage in that turn, you may use an ATTACK on him or her.

    Ability 2: Focus on Study
    [Awakening Ability] After you deal damage, if you are injured, reduce your max. health by 1 and you gain the ability "Recommendation" (Limited to once per action phase, you may state a type or color of card. You flip cards from the deck one by one until a card of your stated type/color is revealed. You give that card to a male character, and put the other cards into the discard pile).

    This is related to Xu Shu's story of killing a villain in his hometown before he ran away and studied hard to become an advisor who recommended the famous Zhuge Liang.

  26. Guan Yu

    Ability 1: Warrior Saint

    Ability 2: Cut the Ties
    Limited to once per action phase, you may conduct a Points Duel with another player. If you win, until the end of this turn, that player cannot use or play any card from his or her hand, and his or her abilities, except Single-use abilities, cannot be activated. If you don't win, that player regains 1 unit of health.
