Its a scan of the new Suikoden SRPG *_* http://ranobe.sakuratan.com/up/updata/up41246.jpg
I see Kika and new characters as well Can't wait for this! *still trying to figure out if the art is kawano's or Ishikawa's...* I'm so excited XD
Richmond: "I'm still not sure what kind of a creature he is. Some people say he's just a
shadow from another existence."
Pesmerga: "Hmmm. I thought that if I pursued Neclord, I'd run into Yuber."
Okay. I don't know what to think other than smile I'm getting another Genso Suikoden. However, I'm already worried.
Why is Kika in this? This is most definitely not after III unless Kika somehow got a True Rune and has eternal youth so what's the deal? I want my sequel to III. Darn you Konami.
But still, the possibilties of strategy Suikoden makes me pee my pants because of the size and scope of the world, but I bet they'll just half do it and give us a shoddy product. A world war would simply rule.
The release date is Fall 2005 (o_O)
edit: After looking at the pics better, this is definitely in the Suikoden IV timeline. For one thing the city they're fighting in on the top pic is..is....see, I forgot everything about that game. The first city place. Also, that guy with the bow is most definitely Harvey. The bottom pic with Kika has Lino En Kuldes or whatever and some other stars in the War Room. Looks like Suikoden will be Yuberless. Again.
To me the picture at the top looks like Tinto. The small picture below looks like Lu Bouqe (or possibly a ship). And the large picture below that looks like the grasslands. Please correct me if im wrong though.
That does look like Sigurd with the huge lizard like sword thing. The war room your talking about is Obel throne room because there is a throne and an Obel soldier. Mizuki and Akaghi are also in the picture near the Obel soldier in the back.
Also you can tell its in the Suikoden IV timeline because of the pirate in the suit at the top, which is very odd looking.
Comfirmed New characters:
Kyril (main character, the red clothed youth)
Andarc (the guy with glasses, subordinate of Kyril's father)
Seneca (the woman who uses a bow gun)
either Raracl or Racral (black hair girl)
Game system:
Combos are available by arranging and positioning the characters
Techniques, such as swing and paring, can be upgraded by experience points
Rune system is the same as the other Suikodens
Yea your right that is Obel. When i saw all the gray, mountains and sand (not there but i thought there was) i thought immediately thought Tinto.
I just read that at Suikox too i was going to post it but you got it before me.
The picture i thought was Lu Bouqe is defintely a ship from what i can see, docked at a port. They must be trying to destroy the rune connon on the ship. An other Suikogaiden, Kyril must be the next Nash.
There's not much details that can be gathered up in that short article, but the timeline is definitely going to be closest to Suikoden IV. I've heard of a few Suikoden IV characters being confirmed already, but I don't see anybody other than Kika on this page. They do mention about some stories of Suikoden IV characters that were not covered will get their moment to shine.
Hmmm...

It's a gaiden technically, but it doens't follow the formula of a Suikoden gaiden which has been text adventures. So it's not a Suikogaiden Vol. 3, but a new type of a gaiden for the Genso Suikoden series.
