V. How to Obtain Saddle
----------------------------------------------
A. Red Hare- To get Red Hare, play Lu Bu Musou mode "Battle of Xia Pi.Do not        
defeat ANY Officers or Sub-Officers. Wait until the "Guan Yu Meets Red Hare" event. 
Quickly defeat Guan Yu. When you do, a message will come up saying "A valuable item 
has been discovered!" The item will be in the bottom-right hand of the map. Defeat 
Cao Cao after grabbing the item and congratulations!

B. Hex Mark- Play Yellow Turban Musou mode. Beat the Yellow Turban Fortress. Then 
play "Campaign Against Liu Bei." Defeat both Guan Yu and Zhao Yun before enemy 
reinforcements show up. Next, kill all of Liu Bei's bodyguards and take Liu Bei 
down to about 1/2 health. The precious item should appear on the island in the 
Southeast corner of the map (where you find Red Hare in the Battle of Xia Pi).


C. Storm Runner- To obtain Storm Runner, play Lu Bu Musou mode "Campaign Against 
Cao Cao." Go south from your starting point and kill Cao Zhang. After doing so, the 
enemy will ambush you. Destroy Xu Huang(ambush party leader) and head to the South 
of the battlement. Go to the area on the left and the other enemy ambush party will 
flee because you've spoiled their ambush. Once you spoil the ambush, go to the 
center of the battlement and eliminate the officer there. The North battlement 
gate should open. Then, head South and kill the officer in front of Cao Cao's 
fortress and it's gate should open. Go into the fortress and defeat Dian Wei. The 
doors will close and Xiahou Dun will ambush your forces in the Northwest. Defeat 
the Guard Captain in the fortress and hurry towards Xiahou Dun's unit. Defeat 
Xiahou and "a valuable item" will be discovered in Cao Cao's fortress. It's around 
the area where Cao Cao is sitting. Take the item and defeat Cao Cao.

D. Shadow Runner- Play Shu Musou mode "Tong Gate".Take out the 4 generals at the
bottom on the right. Wait for Han Sui to confer with Cao Cao. The gate to the
castle will open; take out Yu Jin, Xu Huang and Cao Cao’s 2 sub generals. Go around 
and  slaughter countless soldiers until his personal morale drops to 1. Two things 
will occur: your army will find a large pack of horses and Han Sui will refuse to 
defect to Cao Cao. The item report will be in the Southeast.

E. Elephant- Play the first level of Nanman Musou mode. Wait for one of your allies 
to get knocked off of their elephant. Take the elephant and ride it into the enemy
base. An item report will appear in Nanman base, it will be around Meng Huo.
