I have been very excited for this game, and as such have bought all 6 of the IAP generals, not counting Robin Hood or William the Conqueror. My rankings are as follows
1. Richard I- This is an absolute no brainer, he hits like a truck.
2. Attila- For me he is an absolute nuke on the battlefield.
3. Saladin- This is the one where I might get some flack, but him on his Horse Archers are absolutely amazing.
4. Charlemagne- He has all the tools to be amazing, yet I feel his production is lacking.
5. Olga- Even as an infantry general, I see her producing quite well.
6. Arthur- I like using him, but I just feel he lacks the power I would like.
If you are looking to spend any money on the game, just buy Richard, like wow does he annihilate. I included a poll to see your opinions! As a long time player I am excited to finally post in the forum!

Thought I don't have the game yet and don't know their skills, Richard looks like a good choice to me as well because his privilege of giving 50 medals daily and medals are usually the most important resource in easytech games.

Richard I is definitely the best general in the game. His skill, Interception, completely prevents an enemy from attacking or moving for a round. He has base cavalry capability of 50. His first and second skill is great for cavalry and his third and forth skill are general skills for all units. His weapon is OP with the two best stats.  His unit, Knights Templar, has the HIGHEST base attack in the ENTIRE game and the ability of the Knights Templar is probably one of the best out of all units ![]()  Combining a maxed out Richard I with a maxed Immortality and a Nisean Horse (+20 Calv Points and +1 on Richard's Cavalry Tactician Skill) on maxed out Knights Templar will deal highest possible damage in the game without ability buffs. |

Actually, I am intrigued by the cheap fellers' capability. I really don't like the more expensive ones, primarily because of price and a few other reasons.
Attila - Ravenna Crossbowmen don't seem that great, while Forced March on an archer means less specialization, which you don't want at all on a IAP general. What you want for Attila is to have three stacks of Ravenna Crossbowmen to stomp the rest of the enemy, otherwise one will significantly underperform. In addition, his Active seems like trash. Only 50 silver? Seriously? 3 great skills, though, and a great privilege. Best in early game, when you can use his Forced March.
Charlemagne - He is essentially a worse Arthur for more. He's got 2 conflicting terrains and 2 conflicting Experts (as you will want him on his SF), and his active is trash. So is his privilege. Only good in the early game, where you can use the hybridity. 2 good skills, the rest are meh.
Richard - Granted, this guy is fantastic. Unbelievably good. But his price... Is not unbelievably good. He has a bad Active at best, and his passives are amazing. But to look at his price and tell me you would prefer him to Olga, Saladin, AND Arthur seems... strange. But to each his own and I can definitely see the hype around him. 4 great skills and the best privilege.
Now onto the cheap folks:
Saladin - Alrighty, remember that guy Basil? How about we make him just as good as Basil on Cavalry, and even better than Nur ad Din on Archers? +30% on Mamluk Archers and Headhunting? Sign me up. I am starting to think that Headhunting is one of the best skills in the game, with the huge RNG swath. He has some fantastic units, and he can use both them as well as Cavalry in the early game and he is still great on Archers later game, he takes #4 archer spot late game and #2 Cav spot even late game. His Fortification Expert is fantastic is you either don't have a better Consul or do some heavy Consul swapping.
Olga - I'm just gonna quote what I said before: "As much as I hate her character, I have to admit that she us amazing. She is the single best Consul general, slightly ahead of Justinian due to the fact that you get her weapon for free (i.e. not battle pass), she has Hero Legend, and she has higher ability for administration and Negotiation versus his Bribery or whatever. In campaign she holds her own as well, being the Barbarossa of Counter Infantry, with extra damage reduction, the incredible Formation Master or whatever, and Leadership for extra tank. The perfect match for her unit, TBH. The third best privilege, for a cheap price."
Arthur - I honestly used to hate him, but now that I know what Fortification Master does (due to the ET conquests tutorial), I love him. He can hold a city while fighting in another part of the world with Fort expert and the Engineering, along with having Mountain Fighting (as good as Jungle) and both Tacticians for early game and a pretty good unit. Very Versatile general, can really do whatever you want him to do. I am thinking that he might be the single best buy in the game, if you decide that Olga should be replaced with Justinian. In any case, I am taking any one of the lower three before the upper three.

I like Basil too, even if the game gifts us with him only at chapter 4.
I could spend for Arthur, but honestly I feel the game more intriguing in F2P(like Iโve always done).

I bought Richard I and I agree that he hits like a truck. I was doing the scourge of god campaign and he did 1500 damage to an enemy general. Which is absolutely ridiculous.

Question: Can you use multiple premium generals at the same time or are you only allowed too use one ?
