SENGOKU BASARA 2 ITEMS GUIDE

Version 1.0 Last updated: Sep 21, 2006

============
INTRODUCTION
============

This guide is for Sengoku Basara 2 only. The english sequel (if it DOES come
out) may or may not have the same features, so this guide may be irrelevant for
that game. I use the classic (row)-(column) method in listing the items.
I list the items in the order they appear in your character's pre-battle
inventory screen.

All Item descriptions were originally posted on the Board by igniz12000.
Thanks dude!!! I am just posting it the FAQ section, so it's easier to find.
