I prefer to remain cautious for a moment, at least until we find out what those skill books do... Oh, speaking of that, they give me many skill books which i dunno if it is useless or not. I hope they simply can't be useless. Each of those thomes costs 40! medals in the shop. So, from developers' point of view these thomes are more valuable than ambulances... |

they seem to be able to reset skills, either at random or you can choose. Like if you have a powerful general with trash skills e.g. mackensen, then you can probably use that. But if its randomized reset then maybe you will end up worse  good to use cloud save and load as a precaution if anyone wants to try this out |

I happen to have a cloning app, ill pursue it and test it out if no one has already done it |

Are there still two ambulances in the shop. I bought one yesterday and couldn't find another one since then... Back to discussion... Definitely 1814 is hardly something more than a DLC. However it is quite a different game for two reasons: First, significant changes in warfare in the second half of 18th century are well presented in EW6 1914. Machine guns, Artillery and Armored cars/Tanks will dominate the field in our sequel. Moreover, in comparison to 1806 we have a bunch of really good Artillery generals. It was impossible to build up a team in EW1806 around Artillery, now it is definitely an option. Second, aura skills don't stack and we can deploy far more generals than in was the case in original. That means our ways to success are quite different from what we had in 1806. It is early to say with certainty but I presume that we have to make more complex decisions on the battle fields than in EW6 1806. I like that the free generals we get are actually useful. Some of them, at least. Grant is garbage, but I’ve heard that Moltke is amazing. Jackson seems mediocre to me. I don’t know about the other 2. |

Well, most of them, at least. (Grant is garbage, much worse than 1806) In fact not many generals in EW1914 (in comparison to 1806) are real stars. Probably it was done intentionally to make a game more tactical... |

Jackson is awesome as long as he’s fighting in forests. |

So this game is more about being strategic than having good generals. That’s great, in WC4 and 1806, great generals = Win.

In this game I feel like so far artillery is all that matters. The game doesn’t really give you any free arty generals tho. Besides maybe Hotzendorf I don’t think there’s many that stand out. Henry Horne is a very good artillery general that you can buy for just 15500 coins. You can literally get him before doing even the first tutorial mission. |

Why do so many artillery generals have tactic master? In 1804 only Maria had it.
