Game Overview
Governor
Status & Rank Officers other than Rulers possess what is known as a Rank. Ranks are graded from 1 to 9, with 1 being the highest. Officers can be promoted in Rank when their Merit reaches a certain level. Officers will be awarded the Status of Minister at Rank 7, Governor at Rank 5, and Viceroy at Rank 2. The higher an officer's Status, the more orders and proposals they are capable of executing. As their Rank rises, they can also obtain Privilege Orders, which can be used to propose a “Foreign” (P.23) or "Deploy" mission to the Ruler for one time only. (It is guaranteed to be approved.) *If an officer's Rank increases when they already have a set of Privilege Orders, they will not be able to receive another set.
Status Classifications Your officer's Status can cause the game to unfold in many different ways.
Ruler
A Ruler commands an entire kingdom, known as a force. You can appoint Viceroys, Governors, and Ministers to enable even more missions to be carried out, making it easier to expand your force's size and influence. You can use Orders (P.12) to give orders, or you can approve proposals brought to you by your Ministers and other officers. Use the “Personnel” (P.22) command to recruit officers, the “Domestic” (P.20) command to develop your city, and the "Military" (P.21) command to build up your military strength, fight battles, and invade other cities to increase the size of your realm.
Viceroy
*Must be an officer of Rank 2 or higher. A Viceroy is in charge of an area referred to as a district. You can give orders to the cities within your district just like a Ruler can. You can also appoint Governors and Ministers to enable even more missions to be carried out, making it easier to develop your district.
Q Sui Yuanjin 10
Lord Yuan Shao! What should common officers like myself focus on doing? Perhaps we are best served by sitting back and watching men of ability such as yourself in action?! I am humbly at your service, so I eagerly await your orders!

Ruler Ministers are appointed by the Ruler, while Viceroy Ministers and Governor Ministers are appointed by Viceroys and Governors, respectively. can propose “Domestic,” “Military,” “Personnel,” “Strategic,” and War Ministers “Materials” missions for other officers.

Officer
Essentially, officers can only propose missions for themselves. You should focus on completing your missions and earning Merit so you can be promoted to Minister.
Free Officers These officers do not serve any particular force. You can either occupy an empty city by using the “Raise Flag” command, or look to “Apply” to another force and work your way up the promotion ladder as an Officer.
A
Look at you! You'll never be able to properly defend Wuchao in such a wretched state! Yes, it is true that a common officer is unable to decide their own missions, but you can always propose missions at the Ministry even if I don't give you orders directly. I will review the details of your proposal, and give you my permission to carry it out if I find it to be a sufficient use of your time. Once your mission has been decided, it's up to you to execute it. Leave the Ministry and use the Officer Commands to proceed.
