This week's CORA features less subscriptions and more co-op. Always more co-op.

Eastern History has been subject to the revisionists over at Koei Tecmo since the PS2 era, with the Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors games portraying real-life figures with the ability to decimate a dozen men in one strike, and also possessing absurd anime haircuts. They've even broken into fictional territory, giving the Gundam and Zelda universes the ol' Warriors treatment. Now, it's time to return to our reality for a recap of Western Civ with Bladestorm: Nightmare, a game depicting the Hundred Years War: the historical conflict between England and France. Only now, Joan of Arc can blast fools with lightning, and the Black Prince can summon a dragon.
