I bought Cleopatra so that when navy is needed, I have a strong navy general, but also the aura talent is useful. I think that Agrippa is a much better choice. I'm pretty sure Cleopatra can't reach consul, so her potential is limited. 7 in archery also doesn't satisfy me. Octavian, Mith VI, Drusus, Caesar, and sUrEnA are all better archers. If navy aura becomes important in a specific campaign mission or expedition, just put on the African uniform for commander Wait some generals can’t reach consul...? I think cleo’s navy aura is a bit better for a team enviroment navy battle (which will happen), but agrippa is still a solid choice. In navy battles, it matters more who is on the better ship than who has the best navy skills (which you don’t need at all). Agreed with the Africanus uniform part. That essentially is the only thing we need on a navy general. I agree though. Maybe selling cleo for Drusus or Octavian would be a smart choice. Drusus may be the best out of the two. But octavian can attack twice. Neither requires much babysitting so both are great! |

They both have archer commander lvl 2 tho. Besiege is trash, I don’t care what level it is. You only have to face spartacus in a campaign series, in which he is at best on a swordsman. The only other general as good at killing archers that you will have to face is labienus. You will get hit no matter what with an archer. Mithridates with high morale is, while we all want him to be, not always going to be the case. I know because I have caesar, and he rarely gets hit by the inspiration tactic. Starting archer rank and the final archer star is negligible. It is not an easy win. However, you do have a point about the synergy. The synergy of mihredates skills is the #1 reason as to buy him, otherwise he would be no better than Cleopatra. Overall his skill set is great. His talent is donkey poop tho. The main benefit mih brings is that he can help get rid of those strong tier 1/2 heavy cavarlies or legionaries. Even then, they are not that strong. I’d say they are toe to toe with each other, slightly more favorable towards octavian due to him recieving a better talent and accuracy (not a bad skill for an archer (i still it as it is a focused skill)). But you should by no means trade mih off for octavian if you already have him. Sounds like Caesar is only just a tiny bit better than Octavian then? His skills are literally the same with Mith VI, and he has an A talent. I'd argue that counterattack on an archer isn't as valuable as counterattack on infantry, so there needs to be a distinction there. Octavian also lacks advantage, and crit skills are always second best for each class after the commander skill. Mithridates also has 9 in archery. Not a big difference, but big enough to guarantee higher output than Cleopatra I like roar type skills, but not so much on archers. As they absolutely need the extra movement, and I run out of oration scrolls on the other units. Caesar is decent when there is a good unit given. Yep Caesar is slightly better, tho not by to much. They both have archer commander, and octavian has accuracy which is good against its respective unit type, and counterattack in defense. I like caesar’s plain fighting a lot though, but that means all he has is aura + archer commander + pf, which is 3/5 of his traits. Counterattack imo is not a waste as it is a consistent skill. |

Friedrich “Fried Rice” Paulus, counterattack is consistent, if he gets hit. Also, do remember that it's only 20 damage, adds up, but still 20 damage. Caesar shows everyone who the true emperor is. Caesar hits like a truck, and requires a lot less investment to be good, same with ya Boi Mithridates. Octavian doesn't have an edge like a great skill+talent combination, low skill lvls, and he doesn't have the cheekbones of papa Caesar. Also, cleopatra is better, archers can counterattack against archers in sea, while infantry and Cavalry in navy cannot.

Both are good so lets settle it at that. Although jungle + advantage is a bit easier to use, octavian has his advantages |

I want the option to convert 10k sesterces into 10 medals in the next update . We need some milk! I mean ... it's more convenient for the developers to have an entire army of gamers that pass hours grinding just to fill every possible free slot of generals . I hope jamesyang reads this . Because "grinding" is the soul of everything! |
