I have 222,950 coins and 1530 medals and I'm in discovery age. I have the generals as follows: Lvl 4- Washington Alexander Li Shimin Saladin Nobunaga Catherine Lvl 3- Hannibal Robin Hood Lvl 2- Barbarossa Joanne of Arc Montezuma Cleopatra Lvl 1- Crappy Gens So what should I do? I'm going to let you know I haven't completed any conquests besides classical (all). Should I aim to get more items? Upgrade some of the generals I have? Save up for more generals? Other that I'm forgetting? Attachments:

I think conquests are good idea. 1. You can gather additional medals (250+150+125 for each one – 3 conquests = 1575). 2. You can gather some literature (you need it indeed ;0) 3. You can get some good items. 4. Further away they will be less and less challenging and more and more boring. 5. You can take your time without making rush decision and think carefully over whom you should buy next. And finally you should finish them anyway...  |

And a thought to buy Nobunaga is in the air. Instead of one great archer general you will have two. If sometime in future you will make decision to buy Nelson also (with his Archer Commander), your archer’s team will be unstoppable with Saladin, Li Shimin and Bismarck in support.

Nobunaga is in my possession. I'm sorry I forgot to mention. There are two reasonable strategic decisions for you 1. To maximize your strength. 2. To minimize your weaknesses. Obviously your strength is archers. Washington and Nobunaga are two best in the game. Unfortunately they both don’t have “Archery Commander” skill. Good generals with this skill are – Nelson and Li Hongzhang. They have theirs pros and contras (a very good analysis european-war-4.boards.net/thread/5127/li-hongzhang ), but “Archery Commander” will make wonders out of your units. Your weakness (and a very relative one) is imo cavalry. So instead of buying another archer you can take a good cavalry general (obvious choice - Attila). Then your team will be more balanced (but at the same time it will loose some strength – old dilemma “to dig wide or to dig deep”) So you need to make a decision: Should you concentrate on your best side or to improve your weak side. Both ways are possible! |

Next age, so conquests right now could be very handy "Discovery" gives a good amount of literature (for example India - 75) |

Just imagine Nobunaga Attack - 748 (lvl. 6) + 374 (50 % Archer commander triggered) + 374 (roughly given by Mass fire) = 1496 (!) att. Points. And it is without weapon! Oh! I've made a mistake. Mass fire damage bonus will be calculated from the sum 748+374 (Archer Commander triggered) = 1122 1122+Mass fire (let’s say it will be exactly 50%) 561= 1683 (and still without weapon ) ps I am so convincing that I go and buy Nelson myself immediately. |

Have to agree with Stoic. Getting a cavalry general is a good idea. IMO Suleiman is a good option.

Alternatively, you could work on saving up for the legendary weapons, like the getting the Paladin Sword to finish off that set.

I assume that you are going archer lineup due to your Washington.
Nelson, Li Hongzhang, Jhansi, Bismarck, Blucher. Yeah I think they're good.

I agree with Erich von MansteinIn case You are not planning to have Yi Sun-sin You could probably consider Blucher instead of Atilla as Your cavalry vacancy. |
