A noble strategist named Zzabanov , made me think about the best strategy for Crimean War . He pointed out that Cavalry generals (and of course Naval ones , are the best suited for this campaign .
I think that in my case , having Massena , Karl , Sophia , Murat , Dambrowsky and the other free folks tribe , I should sell Karl and Massena (Maybe switching Sophia too for Sakurako) , hiring 2 other cavalry generals . Many of you guys have trashed Radesky , but in my opinion he has the same defensive capabilities of Blucher (he's a boosted Bagration ) and he could work well in Navy too. The other cavalry general would be , of course Lan with the other two cavalry commanders.
What do you think guys ?

Try to have a diverse line-up, don't outright sacrifice a single unit type (inf). What if there's a mission with Do not deploy Cav/Navy gens criterion? Then, a large part of your proposed line-up is useless.
A piece of advice favoured by those who played Crimean War is that you may want to look out for gens with high battle ability and more generalised skills.
Since you decided to build your current team, there must be something of worth when deploying them, so don't upend your line-up based on a person's advice. You must decide if there is something lacking that must be changed, so that you don't have to relearn how to lead your new line up.
A last resort is to ignore the Don't use <insert unit type> gens criteria first, focus on clearing the challenge. Afterwards, when everything is won, sell your gens to buy new ones that can help you 3* the aforementioned missions.

You can use navy , artillery and cavalry . At the end infantry oriented generals are not a big deal (you use them to complete every previous missions with 3 stars) . Imagine a Radetsky with Prussian helmet charging enemies with +40 attack of aura . In many missions in Crimea I have to say , mountains are commonly spread all over the maps . In conquest is pretty difficult to chain the mighty Radetsky (he also has 63 attack points , such as Davout , but counter-attack and raising-moral ability over him to be perfect on the waves of the Black Sea ). Bagration would have been perfect if EasyTech had conceived him with more battle points over cavalry. |

It's a difficult decision , because I'm bounded to Massena and Karl . The only alternative is to farm for ages , saving generals I won't need . If you see , there are more good cavalry generals than infantry commanders... maybe EasyTech gave us the opportunity to beat Russian forces in Crimea , this way .

In fact, you should probably get barclay as well. |

Also, why get Radetsky if you can get Ney or Lan? They have no differences in defense. They also got edge on him meaning they are better at killing inf, a better terrain bonus, and Lan has surprise while Ney has riding master. Radetsky’s manuever skill is also useless. The only thing radetsky really has going for him is inspiration and strike, which is not enough. Counterattack is a skill I don’t even like on my blucher. |

I love every discussion and I thank you all for each reply to this topic. I think that in infantry (even with the 3 infantry masters) we are on pair with the Russian generals (they all have aura skill...) or maybe we are even weaker than them ... However they lack strength in cavalry ... a well balanced team requires even defensive capabilities and DIVERSIFICATION . Ney is a great choice , but he is too much specialized in cavalry and Lan is slightly better than him , costing way fewer medals though . A good replacement for my Karl or Massena , must be placed on cavalry , navy and if needed on artillery. In conclusion , the perfect general must have high battle points and polyvalent skills , because my two aura cavalry commanders will boost his attack. |

Fair enough, but I wouldn’t go as far as to sell either Massena or Karl. I would simply beat the missions with infantry generals first and then beat them without. If you want high battle ability and hybrid skills, I’d suggest taking a look at the princesses. Many of them, such as Maria and Louise, possess the qualities you seek, such as counterattack, high battle ability and good defense. I would personally try to beat the entire challenge list, see the ones that you didn’t get a 3 star, them make a cloud save and see what strategy works. Your right, many of us have never given Radetsky or Bagration a chance so they might be useful. Remember, the cloud save can definitely be a strong tool so use it. |

Cavalry is essential for Crimean war, with suport of arty of course, but please don't sell Karl and Massena  Be patient and farm and you can have all generals you want. Btw there is a ban on cavalry gens in battle of Balaclava. Navy gens are needed only for 3* naval missions. |

For the sake of science I'll try Radetzky and Bagration with cloud safe. Don't worry Zzabanov I can't sell Massena and Karl for real . P.S. How can I like a post ? |

Better battle ability over Kate too. I think Maria would also be worth giving a chance, imagine having 3 aura buff generals and her on rocket artillery. Jeez. As for fatimah, well, her output definitely isn’t bad, but I would definitely still take John. The damage he pours on a combined tile is insane. |

I means hybrid gens, Fatimah is good gen in every type (except Navy) of units and she isn't Inf gen. |
