New idea:
Battle of Trafalgar, all ships draw back except generals, generals forward surrounding Nelson(Nelson has wolf flag), quit after all general killed, and start again.
Going to test them with my Kutaisov and Arnold.

Royal Emblems you can get them when you finish a camaping if you finish a campaing with 5 stara everything you have a chance to get 2 of them but you can buy them but its more worth to buy a slot and cheaper |

Okay, I've read this through several times now, played the game with a win under 100 turns (vital for the Kindle; it still has the 99 turn limit), and I am finally beginning to understand. Correct me if I am wrong...
1) This is really only worthwhile for Academy generals, because tavern and start-up generals are not retained after Conquest battles.
2) It might be worthwhile for startup and tavern generals IF you are playing on Android or some other platform with a 999 turn limit. and you want to play the game to be economical of men (but pointless if going after Princesses, when you need to finish as quickly as possible). In fact, if you really wanted to be malicious you could leave one enemy alive and then turn on your allies one by one (Sweden in 1806 is notoriously easy to turn neutral; they leave one of their ports wide open and at least one of the cities they conquer, and they are very quick to turn neutral and then hostile - but on the Kindle with a 99 turn limit, the fewer enemies you have to kill, the better).
3) It could be worthwhile to spend an entire game on the Kindle grinding to earn more medals to buy more Academy generals and power them up for the next try.
4) Russia 1806 is ridiculously easy to play Conquest for a beginner, because it has good starter generals, a tavern with multiple generals, and usually only one hostile border at the start of the game (Ottoman Empire). Better still, you can invade Sofia (the city, not the princess, LOL!!) very early, and that also has a good supply of Tavern generals (some of whom are actually pretty good).
Now that I have won the game on Kindle once and the pressure to achieve this is gone, I should consider a grinding game. This could be a lot of fun (and a great way to relieve stress at the end of the day).

Hi, here's my version to grinding, which is more fun and also proofed against the unwanted actions of default allies: I have been playing with Saxony/Europe 1806. In the first phase of the game, I upgraded my cities and facilities as fast as possible (default infantry general and Princess Fatima have Architecture skill to make this faster). In the meantime I played defensive against default enemies. The most important to do in this phase of the game is trying to steal cities from your default allies (like Russia, Austria, Prussia etc.). After stealing 3 cities, they turn black, enabling you to attack them. It is advisable not to conquer enemy cities ahead of your allies to allow yourself more chance to steal ungarrisoned cities. In the second phase, you can start taking out the weaker enemies (such as Sweden, Switzerland, Rhine) to boost your own economy. Train as much Militia infantry and capture your allies' food supplies to paralise them if there's no chance to break the alliance or it is already broken. Let Spain and the North-African enemy to wipe out Portugal and other weaker allies. Once you have no allies, you can surround level VII cities (enough autonomus supply to generate units every turn) to grind medals and experience. Kill anything else. Enjoy. That "proof against the unwanted action of default allies" is something I like. There is something to be said for being alone, but first you must conquer enough of your allies' cities to make them neutral and this is not always possible later in the game. Must give it a go, though - I get sick of Austria poking its nose into my business. I'm not sure what you mean about it being advisable not to conquer enemy cities ahead of your allies; could you clarify this, please? That last line is spot-on, but doesn't the level VII city also need a marketplace (scales icon) to turn gold/tech into food? Otherwise they will eventually starve. |

Tavern generals are good for speed running if you think you need another general on a certain front(HRE ottoman or French front)
That and when you just wanna screw around with Lannes or Poniatowski for a few medals and then run around and feel invincible

pathdoc, Farming is done with a dedicated save. It is to raise rank and regen.

This is true, yes, but it is also true that farming is best done in conquest **mode**, as this gives the maximum number of turns in which to grind away at one's helpless enemies. When going for princesses, grinding/farming is counterproductive because you want it to be over ASAP. When you want to draw out the fun and make it last and you have 999 turns to play with, that's another matter.
