1) Version History
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.0 - Everything is finished, but I will be making updates and possibly adding
new things every once in a while as needed.  27 May 2004

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2) Xiao Qiao's History
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Information from http://www.free-definition.com/Xiao-Qiao.html
Xiao Qiao is the youngest daughter of Qiao Xuan, a powerful duke from the South
Land. As a child, she was a bit of a tomboy (she especially loved to climb
trees) and
had to be dragged indoors by the scruff of her neck for ladylike training. Once
she
discovered that there was no way out of the lessons, she did her best at
applying
herself to them.
Cao Cao, a friend of her father, was working toward claiming both Da and Xiao
Qiao's hand in marriage, but Sun Ce and his sworn brother Zhou Yu proposed to
the
sisters first. Xiao Qiao was surprised and a bit shocked at Zhou Yu's proposal,
wondering what such an intelligent, charming and handsome man could see in her
(despite the widespread tales of the Qiao sisters' beauty). He loved her
fiercely, and
when Zhou Yu learned from Zhuge Liang that Cao Cao still wished to claim the
Qiaos, he proposed war to Sun Quan and brought Wu into the Battle of Chi Bi. Her
youthful enthusiasm and cheerfulness made a good compliment to her beloved
husband's calm and cool nature. Despite her husband's dislike of Zhuge Liang,
Xiao
Qiao and Yue Ying get along remarkably well.

(I have played this level many times under each difficulty level, but Cao Cao
has only challenged me to a duel under "Beginner" and "Normal" difficulties.
If anyone has had Cao Cao challenge them to a duel under a different difficulty
I would be grateful if you would E-mail me the difficulty setting and how much
Exp you received for defeating him, I will give you credit for it.  My E-mail is
TruSlyde@AOL.com, please put something related to Dynasty Warriors into the
subject, or I may delete it on accident.)
Escape from Tong Qiao Tai:
(Note: this method is for maximum stat boost.)
Once the level has started up you find yourself on top of a roof and Cao Cao is
facing directly at you, it is a showdown, sometimes Cao Cao will challenge you
to a duel. Attack and defeat Cao Cao, after he is defeated head West to Xiahou
Dun's position and fight him, after you defeat Xiahou Dun, head South, and the
East to Cao Ren, sometime within the timeframe of when you start fighting Xiahou
Dun, and start fighting Cao Ren, Cao Cao will come back to the battle field, in
the same place you fought him at the start of the game, ignore him for now, and
keep fighting the enemies in a counter-clockwise motion.
After defeating Cao Ren, head on to Dian Wei, fight him, and after he is
defeated, go north, and get directly against the wall to your right (do not go
up the stairs that you see), you will run into a group of 4 boxes, break them
all open to reveal an Item box, pick that up and you have just obtained an item
(note: you must finish the level to receive the item).  After you have gotten
the item, head West to Xu Zhu's position and defeat him.
After Xu Zhu's defeat go back to where Cao Cao is, fight and defeat him.  Now
one of his officers that you defeated previously should come back to the battle
field (note: all of them will come back, but one at a time) go to that officers
position and defeat him again.  Do this until you have defeated all of his
officers again.  Once they are all defeated head back to where you have fought
Cao Cao previously and fight him again.  This should be your third time
defeating him, you can tell if it is or not, if it is you will get a message
saying that Cao Cao is retreating for a third time.
Now for the time being just hangout up on top of the building and Cao Cao will
appear again.  Once he does defeat him for the fourth time proceed directly to
the East and Xiahou Yuan will appear, defeat him, and then focus on Cao Cao (I
have noticed that when Xiahou Yuan appears on the battle field the game says
that Xiahou Dun has captured Da Qiao, even though right before that Xiahou
Yuan's character actually says that he has brought Cao Cao Da Qiao.  After
Xiahou Yuan appears Cao Cao will launch a final attack try on you, all you need
to do is defeat Cao Cao.  Be sure that Da Qiao does not die; if she does you
lose and have to start again.
Item Box - Northeastern corner of the map, it is in one of the 4 boxes there
(note: this item box is within the castle walls, not on top of them).

11) Recommended Items
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Harness -
Shadow Harness (Mainly because if you need to get out of a tight    situation
and you have many enemy soldiers around you it makes it hard to get on a horse,
but with the Shadow Harness you do not have to worry about it because it has the
ability to keep you from being knocked off of a horse.)
Orb -
Vorpal Orb (This orb works well with Xiao Qiao mainly because well the chance of
an instant kill.)
Item Slot #1 -
Peacock Urn (It never hurts to have extra Life.)
Item Slot #2 -
Dragon Amulet (With low health sometimes all you can do is rely on your Musou
attack to fend off enemies and knock them off balance.)
Item Slot #3 -
Tiger Amulet (Extra attack power is very important for taking out officers with
high defense.)
Item Slot #4 -
Tortoise Amulet (Extra defense is essential to stay alive when you go up against
powerful officers.)
Item Slot #5 -
Wind Scroll (This one is very important, since Xiao Qiao has a poor attack range
if you equip this item you can make her attack range much better.)
