I currently have Sophia, Isabela and sakurako, at them three having 110 rank and 7 nobility, sophia 5 stars at cav and art, sakurako at 5 inf and upgrading to cav, and Isabela as my 5 trader and 5 art but i am thinking to upgrade her into another cav(works with geography), also when i max out all of them i will put oudinot as last slot gen with mass fire item. Is isabela being an cav good or its just time/medals waste?

Is isabela being an cav good or its just time/medals waste? If you need an artillery general, Isabella is the first choice. Your Isabella is already perfect. I use her always. Best general in game. My Isabella has not one star more. 5 art, 5 trade, 2 movement. Long long after the campaign ... and all others are maxed in at least 2 classes. If one day a Diez will show up, for shure I buy him. For me, every other star had been wasted π, to answer your question wraith

wraith, how many slots you have? Because if you have 4, then get Lan instead of Oudinot. You can Cavalry train Lan once you get her instead training Isabella in Cavalry.

Yes im going to Lan but it will take a while. I am choosing Oudinot because i love infantry, its a strong unit and also he have a massive damage. Also im 4 slots player. John Marston,

John Marston , If you can grind medals, then you can get Oudinot temporarily. But train Lan in cavalry first before training Isabella. Alternativly, you can also train Sophia in cavalry as she works very good on cavalry too. But Lan first

And if i get Lan then do i regroup with isabela? I would have 2 arty gens instead of 3, but Lan is the best general of all game as much people say, so is this good or no, because im a 4 slot player so its needed to own a trainer slot. John Marston,

John Marston, For one thing, I would regroup Sophia, Isabela, and Lan, and end with Oudinot (or Victoria) with your gens, but Lan is still pretty good from the start, so ending with her isn't too bad either. I disagree that she is the best gen because I really like Infantry, and that point goes to Conquest Brock, but Get Her! Stick with the 2 Arty Gens. Sophia and Isabela are more than enough.

John Marston , Isabella is the best artillery general. Don't regroup her. You can get Victoria for infantry and train Sakurako as you wish if you feel your team has too much artillery power. And don't listen to Gerd von Rundstedt! That's absolutely the worst advice possible, second only to buy Caradja

This advice is very unorthodox, but I think it makes sense in this particular case.
Give up Lan.
For artillery, you already have Sophia and Isabela. Infantry you have Sakurako. That leaves cavalry. Sophia will never get deployed on cavalry and you have Sakurako who, despite being worse than Lan, is still a solid choice for cavalry.
So here comes my suggestion: upgrade Sakurako in cavalry, and finish with another cavalry general, presumably Golitsyn.
If you just want to aim for The Best, make a sacrifice between Sophia and Sakurako, bring out Lan, and finish with Victoria or another cavalry.

Thanks, i will take it as an answer, but in my opinion Victoria is actually bad, her skills are nice, bugle for evasion, mass fire for dont waste item slot of drum, assault art fun, and the horrible defense art. why i would get her with just as an infantry and an useless navy focused, theres already Sophia for navy, and Sakurako for infantry.

If I used princesses, she would be my number one Infantry.

With 4 slots you can develop only 3 generals,if I understand you this will be Sophia, Isabella and Sakurako, so I would follow Erich von Manstein's advice, forget for now Lan and Victoria. Both are not necessary. Isabella + 2 Hybrids + 1 temporary trainer is for me a strong lineup. You develop Sophia, this is quite expensive but reasonable. For SNS, Sophia with 5β Navy was great fun, she took out all coastal forts, nothing more - this consumed all her health, but she protected all other units from one single shot. I had no need for Victoria. I develop first Sophia on Cavalary,then Arillery and Navy For the few situations when I got the MG on start, I also use Sakurako - she never disappointed me. Sakurako is great on Cavalary: There only 3 cavalary skills: Strike - the must, and two dammage skills with little and no effect. Other cav generals can be only better because of a good complementary skill (Leadership, (AA,DA), Sailor, Fireproove, eco or rank skills) One Diez is great for Sakurako. Attn: I remember 1 mission where Infantry was usefull (Moscow ??) but Lan was better than Victoria because she has Leadership, so I could try out an unconventional strategy. Don't block too early the last slot with a final general, but keep slot 4 always occupied: I regroup in the moment I have the next trainer in the academy and enough π to afford him. An Agha can be very usefull, even on Navy: if you have two propeller, Snair and Bow Chaser you will be happy to have 4 generals, no matter who is nr 4.
