It seems that there's another difficulty spike in the German empire due to the number of objectives needed to defeat. Having 2 artillery general will definitely help moving forward. In Industrial age campaigns there are definitely several missions when at least two Artillery generals are really helpful. And in some hard mode campaigns or Empire/Asgard/Temple missions even three of them won't hurt. That's true. I'm surprised how hard cleopatra hits once her morale is up,but then again i gave her thunder. Hopefully Bismarck doesn't disappoint, and khalid is still benched until i finish lvling jhansi and suri to 6 stars and upgrading key skills in my troop. I would love to have Li shimin, but thinking of his cost is giving me a headache |

Interesting,why was this account deleted? I thought you are communicating with yourself I might be . Reminds me of why i even named this accound Deleted. That said, choice of the age (last optional mission in the meiji restoration)is definitely giving me a head ache. The last city surrounded by enemy generals is a pain. I'm probably getting a bit too aggressive with my lack of success, getting 3 stars in it is definitely difficult. Maybe i'm wasting too much time against the Ottomans or i'm sending only 2 generals to deal with Bismarck. Either way, a complete head ache to 3 star. I'll try again later when i feel less frustrated, but then again writing a 500 word essay on some psychological phenomena isn't the best stress reliever. I might need Bismarck for a 3 star,or if i actually get good in this game. |

I might need Bismarck for a 3 star,or if i actually get good in this game. I usually sent only one general (preferably the fastest, so that he could join others on a final assault) to kill Bismarck with support of some regular troops. Besides, it is very important to take a favourable positions when you attack HQ. Try to break the walls and then immediately to occupy a stable. Doing so you can prevent spamming and gain a vital space for your generals to take perfect positions. Don't fight with AI's generals, just concentrate on attacking the HQ. |

Yeah, i usually send Washington to deal with Bismarck. My mistake was using Washington to siege from the north rather than run from the south, takes more time to besiege than to just run to the south. I also ignore the generals, but the enemy starts spamming a lot. I thoroughly defeat the Ottomans and just leave cannons to deal with the castle to the south. But yeah,the enemy spam is the biggest problem. With your advice tho,i'm more confident in victory . I'm wondering if i should've invested into Saladin early on, and went ham to get his logistics to a high level. He would've helped great. Then i remembered he doesn't have bravery. Quite hard decision,but not after suri gets her glow-up. Do awakened generals get bonus stats as well? |

He's one of the most expensive generals in the game, that's for sure... Too expensive to consider early on. Or even in the late game. The Fire Dragon generals (Li Shimin and Koxinga), along with the Cover generals, have gained some popularity after the release of arena. You might see him in an ArtyCom lineup but I've seen people rating Koxinga above him solely because of the price tag. |

You might see him in an ArtyCom lineup but I've seen people rating Koxinga above him solely because of the price tag. Eh, I wouldn't say so. I think that he is good, above the Blue gens in value, certainly, but in Comparison to the others, he is pretty much strictly worse than Heih. He has an large advantage in stats If you leave Bismark at 5 stars, and if you upgrade Bismark to 6 stars, they have roughly equal stats and Koxinga has Navigation and Fire Dragon instead of Accuracy and Rumor. About equal, I'd say, and Bismark wins due to price. He is essentially a Li Shimin without Logistics and lower stats. He does have Navigation, which is nice, and of course the price tag is pretty good (not as good as Khalid or Cleo). I would say he could be a decent second Artillery with Bismark if you get him in discovery while bringing Khalid or Cleo to Empire, but while I hope that he can be great, I am skeptical of his use. |

Who needs bismarck? Easiest mission ever. Sorry, got carried away. I did what you said and quickly took their structures,and it really did me good. Cleo had enough damage thanks to the tag team of Li and Washington, with Nobunaga coming in clutch after dealing with Bismarck. That was a really frustrating campaign mission, for me at least due to lacking a second artillery general. Can't wait for the harder campaigns. |

Yup, that's why i'm considering Li shimin and Koxinga once i'm mostly done with the PVE stuff and want to get into Arena. I might not even bother upgrading Li Shimin's logistics since he'll only be used for arena purposes. For now, i'm comfortable in Arena, haven't faced any difficult teams yet, and my archer heavy backline can usually deal with the harder teams i face. |

Oh, I have found a better candidate! Suleiman the Magnificent is great to take this position. Best defence in the game, damage reduction by 40%, rumor... A lot of investments though. Alright, in overall tanking, Suleiman would be better. Joan is actually great as well. Still, i am gonna make Charlemagne work. I'm gonna have the best Charlemagne, just you wait. He'll be in the Volgograd hall of fame, it's only a matter of time. |
