There are limits though... We don't have so many books to change all skills we don't like. I have 47 books. Oh, the screenshot was unclear and I thought we need a double number to reset a skill. But it is more like 5 books per skill. More than reasonable  |

This is your answer to what skill books does    Looks like every general can be godlike Look good now I can make Foch Godlike and also make gold tier general with bad skills but have good stats look worth enough to purchase just to reset skills and customize. |

That's the problem as I see it... All that we need is to hire a general with a relatively high battle ability and 5 skills... For me the process of building up my team was the most exciting part of ET games. But now this process makes no sense anymore... |

If the cost goes up exponentially , then how many skills can you actually change? 2 cost 15 books, I don't think anyone has more than 60. It's not for making bad generals great. It's for making insane generals even better. |

It's for making insane generals even better. By watching commercials we can easily earn more books, if it is our aim. The ratio 3:1 is relatively high to be sure that we can change as many skills as we wish. In fact, it is a death sentence to excellent generals with only 4 skills. Hindenburg, Leopold from now on are better than Hotzendorf. Ivanov is a way better than Hotzendorf. To say the truth, Nicholas the II and von Bulow are better than Hotzendorf, because I can sell Hotzendorf and make his copy out of any king or emperor with 4 or 5 skills. |

Also this means that my decision to get Robert E. Lee wasn’t bad. He’s emperor and has god-tier stats. I can turn him into Petain 2.0. I am going to get him too! |

I am really happy they did this to be honest, this is what I was wanting to do, make our own generals |

If it's limited 1 skill / general or all skills for only one or two generals you have, it's interesting. But if it's unlimited, it's game breaking.

I am really happy they did this to be honest, this is what I was wanting to do, make our own generals Indeed we can... But if in WC series it was somewhat balanced and we could add one or two additional skills, now it is really frustrating... Actually we can make 5 Ludendorffs with more or less equal sets of skills. There will be a small difference between players, but in general all of us will have teams of twins with such possibility. And the set of favorite skills is almost predestined, with one or two minor exceptions... |

What they might do is that when you put a skill in a general then you could no longer put it on any other general unless you remove it so that you will only end up making one op guy on each type of unit. Which you can make 8 great generals or 4 op generals.

they definitely will limit the available skills to be added, price wise or skill number. This is too good to be true  |

This sounds amazing. But I’m still following my original plan in case this turns out different than we expected.
