Romance of the Three Kingdoms IX.

I played VII and then VIII due to my local video game rental company having them. Both of these games let you pick as any officer available for the time and play as them whether they be a grunt or an amazing warlord or a ruler. Well IX came out and followed the old games and only allowed you to pick rulers. I thought this was stupid and missed being able to play as anybody.

Eventually I kept giving IX some more playtime, and now it is my favorite in the series. It has interesting strategies involved when compared to the other games in the series, and the most important thing is how to use your vassals, whether it be for domestic or external issues.
