Iron Duke , do you recall which slot is used to equip legendary books? The fourth one, where the rings and such go. |

So far I'm thinking Suriyothai will be my permanent 3rd Commander after Attilla & Edward, but I'm interested in hearing your thoughts after using her for a bit. She is a bit weak and squishy at first, but really shines when the buffs start to hit, and upgrades are way affordable. Also having Plunder at 4 stars is a nice little bonus!

I played with Attilla, Edward and Asoka ones and here are my thoughts. I think it is not an easy task to keep two blue cavalry generals alive, especially Asoka. Edward, at least, has leadership, but Asoka receives full damage when he is attacked and when he attacks himself. So, if he's active - he will be severely damaged even before Commander skill is activated. If he is passive - there is no point in using him. Suriyothai on the other hand has an amazingly powerful combination of Bravenes and Plunder, so, her survivability is second to none. Her one real weakness is the lack of any bonuses against Infantry at lvl 6. But that is the point of using Commanders: you steadily fill their rage bar and then just smash everything in the way at crucial points. |

I suspect she'll still be severely hurt when she does receive damage so will need decent equipment and careful placement, but no doubt you'll find out before I do and can report back with your findings  |

I completed a couple of hard mode battles and here is what I think will be a paradigm or a pattern. There are actually 3 types of battles. 1. Strongholds. I haven't played it yet, but as Iron Duke pointed out these are defensive battles with a lot of generals on the battlefield. 2. Opening battles like Thermopiles. They are very like regular campaigns, but winning conditions and opponents are different. They are only moderately difficult.  3. Second type of battles which have nothing in common with regular campaigns. These will be insanely difficult. Here is an example of such mission - "Hold Thermopiles"    And this is Classical age! I tried the first three Opening battles with my Discovery age team today and they were very easy, so could probably be done with Empire level teams if one wants the medals and chain armour. |

It is a huge advantage over Edward and Asoka. When they are hurt - they are hurt. Our means to heal them are rather limited. I had two healers Caesar and Mocte to keep them alive. |

Here we go And here Syriothai with Inspiration For information: CL - 995 medals Inspiration - 410 medals Braveness - 510 medals. Wow that's cheap. I'm thinking about adding her to my team as a third Commander after Attila and Edward although I still have to reach arena level 7 (I am at 5 right now). |

I can say that I am very pleased with Syri. I was afraid she will be too fragile in AI-controlled battles, but she definitely knows how to survive. All are dead and Syriothai doesn't have a scratch.  And, second, she's able to refill her rage bar almost as fast as Attila. That means I always can count on two Commander skills activated at crucial points.  [/url]    |

Which equipment have you kitted her out with? |

Would you say Suryothai (with Inspiration and Plunder) is better than Attila (with Assault)?
Edit: Rather, more useful?

No, I wouldn't First, if we speak of a "team" we can't say: Our striker is more useful than our central defender. A team composed out of 11 Ronaldos will loose to a Championship team, to please our friend Iron Duke with this analogy Syriothai is there to help Attila in the first place. Second, Attila has a huge bonus against Infantry and that helps him immensely in every situation. He can fill his rage bar as quickly as no-one else in this game. |

If Suriyothai had Attila's stats she would be incredibly OP, IMO, but as it is she still rocks in CavCom. I now rate her as more useful than Edward, and often she survives longer than Attila. I've completed a couple objectives with only Suri left alive. Perhaps the balance will be different when I have more eq, since I had to steal some of Attila's kit to buff her up to where she really needs to be.
My prediction is that Suri will be the shining star of the Awakened generals, due to her usefulness in CavCom and getting her early enough to really make a contribution.
