don't have lots of gold so need to prioritise, only going to buy training for cav and artillery because i don't have any good infantry general yet, but not sure which is most important out of mobility, health, attack and defence.
can someone list them in order of importance so i know which to prioritise?
thanks

So if you don't have lots of gold and have great need to prioritize, then for tech, I would strongly recommend you buy the mobility for units first.

ok thanks, i got like 110k gold atm, i spent lots of gold on items, i got all the best cav and artillery damage items, and max number of tents and ambulances, so all my gold will just be spent on generals and tech from now on

IMO, the priority should be inf HP/Def, cav atk (def is optional) and arty mobility (atk is optional).
This capitalizes on the strengths of cav and inf while compensating for the weakness of arty.

Torvesta, I would mostly work in approving your Generals. Still keep a eye on your tech for hard missions like cold war campaigns.

ok thanks, i replaced some skills on my generals and upgraded their skills:
ivanov: inspiration -> storm fortifications
plumer: alert -> precision strike
jackson: station -> precision strike
according to one thread, those skills i changed are not very good and the new ones i gave are the best

alert was his worst skill and precision strike is the best cav skill to have, so alert had to go

alert is kinda useless tbh anyway because with cav you are rushing in and you can try to avoid artillery fire because you know their range, so riding master (2nd worst skill for plumer) is better than alert. plus i got ambulances so if plumer gets hurt, i can put that on

I guess the devs wanted Plumer to be an artillery mower with jungle fighting and alert to act as ultimate defensive buffs.

im just making my generals glass canons tbh, its great to have cavs with max damage because if you can wipe an enemy out, you can hit again, and you also don't get hit back if you wipe out enemy, so defence is not an issue. for both plumer and jackson i have them with 30+ pistol and ambulance/tent and that works just fine, they take out lots of infantry, cav and artillery and stay alive.

You can’t actually always reach enemy artillery due to terrain, and it’s a great navy skill, so it helps a lot when you’re in the ocean (you will be sometimes). Ambulances aren’t always enough either. Riding masters damage boost is mathematically so insignificant that you might as well pretend it doesn’t exist. Also you don’t want glass cannons. The concept of a glass cannon doesn’t really work unless you can always eliminate the enemy actions, which is really hard to do in ET games. You want mobile tanks that can deal a lot of damage. Fortunately that exists in 1914. |
