Where it came from
Independent Troops was released in 1999 as part of the Portal Three Kingdoms set. This expansion was designed to introduce the Magic: The Gathering card game to the Asian market by focusing on the characters and historical events of the 14th-century Chinese epic, Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The set utilized a simplified rule structure, making it distinct from the more complex main-line releases of that era.
The card was illustrated by Kuang Sheng, who contributed numerous pieces to the set, aiming to capture the aesthetic of ancient Chinese warfare. His depiction of the Independent Troops features a gritty, grounded realism intended to reflect the period's infantry. While common in rarity and functional in design, the card is now sought after by collectors due to the limited print run and the specific geographical availability of the Portal Three Kingdoms release.
