There is actually a better way to farm nobility than doing the one in Chain the Beast with 3 farms in the lower left. That just takes too much time. I made my own: First you pick Austria 1815, you could take anyone else but Austria is the closest to the location. You see your armored car? Put whatever general you want upgraded on it (make sure they are fast or have a war horse because by turn 4 the Ottomans will steal the land)  Have you general like this, I used Berthier. Now just move him to the last farm and then press the reset button (the one that brings him back in the lower left corner) and do that over and over and over again. It will increase the general's nobility. I went from a level Berthier to a Level 8.5 Berthier today using this tactic what do you mean by last farm? Put the car in the foreat and then click it on the mouintains its faster somehow |

This is really outstanding. Tons of wagons of medals stayed for smth better to buy. But one question i.e having other slow gen how to do the trick with three farms at once  The only thing I have in my mind is regrouping on him little by some others. |

So I don't know if this has been posted somewhere else or not since I'm new and I couldn't find anything about this, and maybe people have moved on to newer games now. But in European war 4 chain the beast there is a faster way to farm nobility than shown previously. Granted it takes longer to get to the start point of the farming, but as long as you get there and save, you will have a faster way to farm nobility for all your generals (tested against the previous chain the beast method mentioned in the starting post of this thread). I haven't tested it against the method mentioned in the starting post, but that one only has three farms to take as well and the only advantage seems to be the time it takes to get to starting point of the farming. In the long run, my method is probably better.
Now on to my method:
In chain the beast, there is a quasi-island in the middle of the Nile Delta where, if you land your infantry unit on it, it can take four farms in one move the next turn. So if you can get your infantry unit there before the end of the battle (which isn't hard) and save the next turn when it can move, you can farm nobility much faster especially for new generals.
Unfortunately, I do not have the ability to take a screen shot that I know of from my mobile phone which is where I play the game. It is pretty easy to spot though when you look at the Nile Delta when you're in the campaign battle chain the beast. Maybe, if anyone still visits this site, someone else can provide screenshots of what I'm talking about if they spot it. It isn't hard to spot or get your infantry unit there, just takes a little time. I got to the save spot on the twelfth turn (maybe someone can get there faster), but saved loads of time in the long run by keeping that save and farming nobility from there.

I see the possibility of taking 4 or even 5 farms by landing next to the easternmost coastal fort. The setup, however, is too prolonged in my opinion, especially when there is an easy setup for taking 3 farms. By the way, this site is very much alive. Also: I would've made a thread about your method if I were you |

It's not that much better than the original method, and there's no certainty that you would be able to set it up properly without enemy units getting in the way or damage your precious infantry to death. (Can't produce another one if you needed to, nor any other land unit). You would have to constantly tiptoe around the enemy fleet in order to achieve what would otherwise been very straightforward. Btw... there's no way to get 4 farms from the central island because of the rivers, you can only move one space to cross a river, and stop there (but the eastern fort spot works though... just so awkward). Agreed, Jean-Luc Picard is right on this one. |

Agreed, Jean-Luc Picard is right on this one. Setup would be the problem - a challenge for anyone who wanted to accept it. However, once you have your infantryman in place just south of the eastern gun emplacement, you simply save at this point. Then load up, place the general you want to farm, move, undo, move, undo... there is no possibility for the enemy to interfere at that point, since he never gets a move. The number of farms you can capture is dictated by the move limitations of the unit, plus any bonus provided by the general. |

Agreed, Jean-Luc Picard is right on this one. First of all, look again, it is four farms, I'm talking about the easternmost quasi island, not exactly the middle. You place your infantry on the top of this island and next turn you can take four farms. You start at the top of this island, and in one move you end up between the unit in Cairo (west of your unit) and the unit on the other side (east of your unit). I've been using this save point for nobility farming for the last couple of weeks and have checked the nobility gain verses the three farm method and this is much faster. That one extra farm makes a lot of difference in the long run (again, I've tested it against the three farm method). Also, taking a long time to get there doesn't mean much when you can get there in, at most, 11 turns and then save on the twelpth to be able to farm nobility faster as long as you play and as long as you don't save over this spot. I'm not really understanding the complaint that it takes longer to get to this farming start point when it saves time in nobility farm in the long run, just get there once and save, then don't save over that save. Been doing this for a couple weeks and the (boring, sleep inducing) nobility farming won't take as long. You're playing this game for the challenge, just get to my starting point, collect the medals on the way there, and then farm for the rest of your European War 4 life. Then again, if nobility farming is exciting to you, then, by all means, take the longer route to farming. Btw, that last is also for Jean Luc Picard. |

This is, after all, one of the easier campaign battles. I didn't use any of my generals to get there, just the two admirals provided at the beginning. I really hope this method helps those who haven't already brought their generals to a high level of nobility or those who are still searching for generals/princesses for their play style. |

Stand right at the spot of the easternmost coastal fort, with 1* movement you can take 5 farms. |

You would need a general with high movement or infantry movement items, but I think you're right. That's interesting, maybe I should make two saves on this battle. Thank you! |
