SANGOKU MUSOU MOVE LIST

Version 1.5
by Louis Kwong

I'd like to thank KOEI for a most enjoyable game.

NEW!
1)both Japanese and Chinese phonetic names for the characters
   (They are the Type B and Type C names in the configuration option
     repectively)
2)characters in the right order as the selection screen
3)lots of new moves added

NOTATIONS
Square = S  horizontal slash
Triangle = T  vertical slash/stab
X = X  side flick
Circle = O horizontal block

F = forward, DF = down forward, BU = back up ...etc
hcf = half circle forward, hcb = half circle back
In this game the command D,DF,F is the same as D,F

WS = with standing

BASIC MOVES

X+O = side step
S+T = throw
U or FU + S or T = jumping overhead slash
                              ( can be used on downed opponents)

RAGE or DESPERATION MOVES
Each character has two of these.
1) D,F + (S+X)
2) D,F + (T+O)
these can be used when your rage bar is orange ie full.
desperation moves can be used when your health bar flashes red.
