I haven't really been paying attention to this game so I am not sure what I should be aiming for with my drawings and mercenary orders.
Should I use my drawings and mercenary orders in the early stage where the available stuff is less diluted?
What units and war gear should I aim for?
Some of the top generals have special equipment that gives bonuses when using certain units, so I assume I should be getting these units for the generals I am using.
I also assume I should be buying units and war gear in the shop to dismantle them to get souls of war and parts. I have lots of gold currently.

Right now meta is archer general with passive skill forced march. If using Woad raider + ravenna* (mamluks+Mongolian raiders maybe in the future) in the legion the general will have insane mobility and consequently multiple attacks per turn. Obviously it is good to support him with something reducing cost of attack/movement. Like gens with Desperate wager. When speaking about gear Rhinoceros lvl3 also reduces attack cost, just like Woad raider. So it is a priority to obtain. Medical tent is also very very useful. * Woad+Ravenna combo is good as they provide not only reduced mobility per attack, but also almost always min mobility per move. As they have forest+mountain movement. So the only real obstacle for min movement cost is river. |

You will get 20 Woad Raiders for having 30 generals in your team, so you could use your gold to buy useful support generals. Good ones include Totila, Athelred, Adil, Theodora, Robert, Sunicas, Gytha, Gelimer, Antonina, Sophronius, Michael, Zubayr, Theodoric and anyone with an active skill that you think could be useful.
And for Drawings and Mercenary Orders: a realistic save/load approach is to use the 10x and go for either 2 golden units you want or 3 golden units (1 wanted and 2 for souls). Single draws will give better results per scroll but it's much more tedious.
Progressing through normal campaigns will unlock more daily missions with better rewards (main passive medal income) and conquests are easy, let you get a feel for the game and your generals and give you basic war gear and lots of gold as well as 50+50 medals for basic and full clear.

Yet there is still no gold archer general 🤣🤣 Even gens like Aetius (free) and Lancelot (don't need support, as he is Desperate Wager himself) and Narses (has unique item) will be extremely powerful. So specific archer general will not be better than general with passive forced march. It 's just OP if used properly. |

By theory every archer general can do it without forced march, but that means you will have to use a non-elephant cavalry unit up front and can only use Mamluk instead of Ravenna. |

Yes, but right now Mamluks are not available and even I, who has access to this unit, am not using it as its level is low. And with Mamluks You will have issues with mobility. Ravenna ignores mountain movement malus. Don't know what will be in the endgame, but right now there are a lot of choke points in missions and mountain movement is quite helpful imo. |

And even if we use Jebe as cav-arch, Lancelot as pure cavalry, and ignore Aetius, we still have Narses and Philip II for inf-arch as non-IAPs. |

As we know at the moment they will replace skills of Albert, Matilda, El Cid. I wouldn't exclude it is just a top of an iceberg. My guess we should expect other surprises as well... Moreover they rework battle mechanics, so many things can be changed eventually. Probably the best right now is just to sit and to wait.

The unit mixing is throwing me off on what units I should give to my Richard. I am not sure if I should add other different units or just 3 templars.

I think that Richard is perfectly fine with 3 Templars. There basically two types of generals - "narrow specialists" (like Richard) and "universal soldiers" (like Lancelot, Narses etc). I would say the second type is great for mixing units in a legion, while generals of the first type profit greatly from using 3 heavy cavalry units etc. |
