Background showcased in Character panel
Background is a gameplay mechanic introduced in Total War: Three Kingdoms. Backgrounds are epithets that works like traits which grants special bonus to characters. Legendary characters often have unique and powerful background.
Overview[]
The character's background has significant impact on attributes and also grants unique bonus when he is either faction leader, faction heir, or Prime Minister. When holding these positions, these effects will be spread to the entire faction, so deciding which characters to place in these roles is vital for player's campaign strategy. Hovering mouse over character's name in character panel will display his/her backgrounds.
List of Backgrounds[]
FW = faction-wide effects when faction leader, heir or prime minister (family estates-modifiers are only active on faction leaders)
CW = commandery-wide effects when administrator
CG = effects apply when character is commanding general of an army
OR = effects apply on characters own retinue
army = effects apply on entire army
