Hi folks, I need your advice. I am going for Commander (cav), Mitriades, Pompey, Octavius, Vercingentorix and Huo as my final end-game team. Now only have Commander, Mitri and Pompey. Are you on board with tgese guys? Any suggestion or replacement?

Huo might be a better option than anthony for power so other than Ver, I have no issues. |

Better to get a 2-2-2 lineup at first, than chose the other 2 generals fitting the playstyle. Temporary cheap generals are very helpful as well, if you arm them all with pompey gladius. I think the current campaign only allows 6 in the very last one. |

Are you on board with tgese guys? Any suggestion or replacement? Get Pacorus I :DDDD. Crassus is better than Vercingetorix most of the time since we deal with cities a lot more than open battles. If you're only going for the gold gens, just get any of them, but Antony, Pompey and Crassus are the true gold gens, Scipio, Huo, Vercingetorix and Arminus are following closely. Tbh any silver or bronze general with good talents just need some rank upgrades and they'll be as useful as the gold gens, but they're overall a lot more expensive. Labenius will be great. Same with commius. |

If you dont consider buying medals I dont recommend getting Octavian. You will need to upgrade his ArchCom and Mith already uses it. If im not mistaken if you buy 2 scrolls and use the free ones you can max out his ArchCom. Thats why Drusus seems a better option. Also instead of Vercingetorix you should get Crassus.Great city cracker and really good hybrid.Give him Pompeii sword and he will do pretty good in Cav too.Huo might be okay but both arminius and antony is better.

Temporary cheap generals are very helpful as well, if you arm them all with pompey gladius. I think the current campaign only allows 6 in the very last one. 4 infantry, 3 Cavalry and 2 archers is probably the best lineup  . I'd say 4 Cavalry, but I don't think 4 is necessary, while for campaigns there are a lot of infantry units lying around. |

So thats Spartacus, his archnemesis Crassus, Pompey, and Labienus |

Otherwise, looks pretty good. I would get the cheap ones asap |

Cavalry is the best unit overall, so more Cavalry gens wouldn't hurt as well. Archers are just too weak. They have strong attack, but they can't dish out what they serve. So 2 or 3 maybe enough. |

What about a 4-3-2 team? Scipio, Arminius, Huo, and Anthony Pompey, Crassus, Labienus Drusus and Octavian |

Or tiberius instead of huo. I think that scipio trades huo’s guerilla and assualt for charge and urban, which is a pretty good trade off.

Best units(in attack) in this game have a terrain bonus , 8/9 points in a discipline and a focused skill against certain unit( charge vs infantry) and I'm not even taking into account different personal bonuses .
The skill cav/inf/arch commander has the best benefit in archery , second in infantry and lastly in cavalry , due to a fixed 60% double attack bonus .
This is the same principle of EW6 . Do you remember the long debates around who was better between Davout or Murat ? Now we have some little differences because I can't give the title of Murat of this game to a precise non IAP general (maybe Arminius , but I saw Huo or Scipio dealing more damage in many crucial situations in campaigns).
