 SavaryΒ Price: 4 Emblems or 855 Medals
Type of General: Cavalry/Fort hybrid
You know what's the difference between Murat and Savary? Murat fought on battlefield whereas Savary was one of Napoleon's staff. Hence he looks similar to Murat while being weaker than him. Jokes aside, Savary, though weak, is still very good. He deals good damage too. However, he lacks Strike for his skills and Fireproof is useless for land units. He's basically a downgraded version of Sulkowski for roughly the same price. Still, not bad.Opinion of using Savary as a cav/navy hybrid? |

He doesn't have any naval stars ks. I feel that fireproof alone isn't good for a naval general. A couple of naval stars would have been good. |

HoodType of General : Navy/Artillery
Price : 3 Emblems, 730 Medals
A price performer. A perfect example of a temporary general. But...he is temporary. Steersman is a solid navy skills and he performs well on ships with 4 naval stars. 3 on artillery + Siege Master is a good combination. 2 movement stars is slow for artillery. But he is not worth the purchase. Moreover, naval campaigns trouble you mostly in SNS and by that time, you should have Victoria so... |

DuckworthType of General : Navy/Artilery
Price : 3 emblems, 770 medals
Is he a twin of Hood? Same 3 stars in artillery, 4 in navy, 2 in movement, same skills aka Steersman and Siege master. Why would you buy him when the same general with a different name and with an extra training star do not deserve to bein your team? Just buy Ushakov if you really really need a navy general. |

Merveldt : Excellent as a trainer for emblems, very bad as a general.Type of General : Cavalry
Price : 3 emblems/ 770 medals
What? John Marston, you said that someone having trainer skill for embelms is bad. Now why are you promoting him as an excellent Move trainer? That's because any 1 of the tier 2 generals can be purchased by using emblems. You can easily get 3 emblems for completing campaigns and then, you can purchase him with 3 emblems and he will save you 550 medals (Diez, the cheapest move trainer's price).
However, he is bad as a general. Disguise is broken. Mobility doesn't work. Move trainer does not increase damage output. So basically, he has just 4 cavalry and 3 move stars to show. |

PictonType of General : Infantry
Price : 770 medals or 3 emblems
Absolutely bad. I mean why do you want to buy him? Save up a little more and get Dobeln. 4 stars in infantry is a good show. 3 stars in movement is fine. But what else? Infantry Tactics doesn't work. Mass fire is a great skill, but that alone isn't enough. Waaayyy overpriced with little to show. |

 GrouchyPrice: 4 Emblems or 910 Medals Type of General: Artillery Grouchy looks very appealing. He has 4 stars in artillery, yes. 2 movement...Yes. Engineering...yes again. No need to grind for refreshes (Appears in Academy at the start)...Yes! John Marston's first buy? Yes again! Just like his master Napoleon, he has a good raw power. But he has no skills to support him. The most expensive tier 2 artillery general. Scharnhorst, Carteaux, Sophia, Kutaisov all are equal or better and cheaper than him. Just imagine...ET made Grouchy, who was a RL cavalry general, an artillery general. So if he was an artillery general in RL, then what would've happened!? |

 CollingwoodPrice: 4 Emblems or 925 Medals Type of General: Artillery-Navy Hybrid Collingwood is a great navy/artillery. If you can't get Victoria then you can use him on SNS campaigns. 4 stars on navy combine well with Navigation and 4 again on artillery for a land utilization. He's basically Ushakov, but with a greater land focus. 2 training stars are good. 2 stars on movement is fine. However, he is a little overpriced with Ballistics being useless. Also, having Steersman instead of Navigation would have been better. |

 Wittgenstein Price: 4 Emblems or 935 Medals Type of General: Infantry-Cavalry Hybrid Hahahaha! Why would anyone even buy him? Ok, what do you offer? 5 stars infantry? Great! 4 stars cavalry? Nice. 2 star movement? Ok. And what else? War Expert? Ok, average skill. Fence? Mobility? Useless. Price? Waay tooo muchh!! Merveldt, with 3 emblems and about 160 medals less. Plus he is a move trainer. Sure he has 5 star infantry, but he is about the price of Oudinot and more than Dobeln. A REALLY BAD BUY!! |

Also, having Steersman instead of Navigation would have been better. For me he is the de facto first gen. Helps with the nasty Battle of Trafalgar, and also doesn't require many resets (I think it's 6?). Amazing stars, and Navigation and Fireproof on Navy, and Fireproof on Land (really, it isn't bad, it can save you from losing 5-15% HP from fire). In addition, he adds to your years ruled for you princess players. All in All, I put him above Scharny. The only problem is his price. Ballistics is useless, yes, but even so, it does look nice on him, even if you are paying for nothing  . My favorite tier 2 by a long shot, because I don't like grinding 50 resets for Scharnhorst, who also has but two skills. |

Gerd von Rundstedt, A bit expensive yes. You're right in everything, but resets. You would need 30 refreshes on average to find your general.

 JourdanPrice: 4 Emblems or 930 Medals Type of General: Infantry-Artillery Hybrid Jourdan along with Grouchy are the most dangerous generals. They look so appealing and are there right from the start. Do not be fooled by his stars and skills. 4 stars in infantry + Formation gives decent and consistent output. Same goes for artillery but with a lesser star. It doesn't help his cause that he has 1 movement stars. Though he isn't bad, he is really overpriced for whatever he offers. Disguise and Ballistics are useless. Get Scharnhorst instead of him. |
