The reviewer in Wargames Illustrated considered a key feature of this supplement in that it facilitates battles that take more varied forms than a simple head to head battle. It does not include any army lists though it does include things that can be added to the armies derived from the lists in the other books. This features rules for raids, sieges and settlements. Details the armies of Chinese history and prehistory, as well as those of its neighbours at the time (such as the Hsiung-nu), up until the Three Kingdoms era. Covers the general time and region of the Ottoman Turks.

Many of the lists have been superseded by later supplements. Released soon after the rulebook, this was intended to help players get started, by providing a large number of basic summary army lists. A range of supplementary books has been released to provide more army lists, each focusing on a particular period and place. The core rulebook includes army lists for 'Early Imperial Roman' and 'Barbarian' armies.
