I gave up fighting for that danmed db. i needa bless my eyes and get an agrippa and finishing racing speedrun first. If you are finding trouble,buy cheap navy generals like Pothinus and Brutus, level them up a bit, give them some item,and let them be sacrificial pawns. Keep your generals at the back, and try to save generals like Pompey for later rounds. You can skip them and go straight for the last han decisive battle, it's much easier compared to the Sicilian Decisive battles. Hmm, let me see. but first gonna participate in the racing event

Overlord is unique, but so is buffs to all units. You canget mobility and morale with items, but not both unless you're willing to sacrifce Golden Spear, which will give a great damage advantage to Commander if Hannibal can't have it. I think you will ideally have Golden Spear and Dargon Tripid on them so then the comparison will come to: 1 more level of Guerilla and Overlord against +15% damage to infantry, archers and navy in the surrounding 2 grids as well as cavalry which Hannibal also has, +3 mobility and +10% rate if critical attack when attacking. As for how good Overlord is, I prefer buffing my allies. In most cases when attacking either there isn't more ene.y units in the surrounding grids or damaging them is irrelevant. However you're rarely going to go solo with your Commander/Hannibal. Also, Commander has the freedom of choosing skills, although mine has the same as Hannibal. About the talent of commander, til now I dunno what it exactly does. Firstly, people say it buffs all unit whatever armor he wears, then some say it buffs the unit of commander whatever type and buffs others’ unit type of the armor he’s wearing; then, someone told me it only buffs exactly the unit type of the armor, commander’s unit or others’. I think we need tests to clear it out, I test a lot to have conclusion that the Inf/Cav/Archer tactic talents only have effect in player’s turn, and the same for some talents like Rumor…

From what the game says it would buff the Commander no matter what and other units depending on the armour he's wearing. But in my testings Commander gave a huge buff for infantry while wearing general armour.

But in my testings Commander gave a huge buff for infantry while wearing general armour. It’s strange, my Pedius only rumors in his attack turn, the enemies be demoralized becoz they lost a legion from the counter attack. But my tests done 2 years ago, maybe they tweaked the skill effects. That’s good having those skills and talents active when we counter attack.

db i would say not much prob. only when you loose 1 or 2 generals during a battle. then simply restart before end and try new tactic. new positions of your generals better would be manual control for optimum battle handling but its automatic

I could be mistaken too, I just remember Cassius rumouring on his counter attack against me in DB.

Old thread but theres new info I want to bring to settle it. The answer is pretty clear to me after the release of arena and Epic War. Before they appear to be close in power, I did prefer Arminius over Huo and had upgraded his skills to level 4. However with the new content, I view Huo as the superior choice because he spawns on a imperial guard cavalry in arena/epic war, while Arminius spawns on a regular heavy cavalry.
Imperial guards are superior to heavy cavalry in every stat except 1 less movement. Imperial guards do cost more to add legions but the first 2 legions are free.

Plus Huo has a higher rank than Arminius + 2% attack, 2% crit rate and 4% crit damage.

So the question remains in the early game, Huo or arminius? I am in gallic war battle of sabis(so the medal farm is still low for me) with cavcom pompey mithy beli vercin perhaps arminius could help better than huo in conquest and campaign and by the end of it i prolly will have huo either way but still asking for those who are veterans in this game for an advice.

There really isn't much between them early game, but I would say Arminius is very slightly better than Huo early on. Both will be able to get the job done as will cheaper alternatives Commius and Tiberius.
