So i just finished a game with HRE and i got Sophia and Fatimah. Right now my general line-up looks like this:
Kutaisov: rank 54, nobility 1
Scharnhorst: same
Golitsyn: rank 36, nobility 2
Sophia: rank 5, nobility 3
I currently have 2 rerolls but i don't know what general two continue with(inf, cav, art, etc.). I am going to regroup Kutaisov in Sophia and very later Scharnhorst. I have 4 slots now but i might get another one or two.

Regroup Kutaisov to Sophia like you said, Fatimah is an economy general, she's useful for farming up gold and resources from cities but she will not survive well in battle, so I recommend you regroup her or do not recruit her. If one an economy general anyone can be a economy general, just get the Napoleonic Code (I got it from HQ and its quite expensive but worth it). Keep Scharnhorst until you earned Isabela, where you will regroup him into her. Hope this helps, I am sorry if it did not. |

1. Yes, regroup Kutaisov into Sophia, your next princess worth keeping till the end will be Isabela, who will make your lineup even more artillery-heavy.
2. You did good to get Golitsyn, but you need a second cavalry for campaigns so get Dumouriez who is a cavalry trainer that can eventually be regrouped into Lan but is also good enough to function until the later stages of the game. Frankly, developing infantry generals in this game, other than Victoria, is a waste of time/medals that could be better spent. Maria will provide you with all the infantry you need until you get Victoria.
3. Farm for rank/nobility on all your generals by doing A or B, preferably both but at a minimum B. The issue here is that the current survivability of your generals is for crap and needs to be improved dramatically if you’re going to rush faster or make more progress in campaign.
a. Set up the Russia 1815 wall of armored cars or similar for rank/nobility – at around rank 74 this becomes too much of a time-suck
b. Get their nobility up to 10 by running them through “Chain the Beast”. This should take about 5-10 minutes per general, depending on how fast you can move your fingers/stylus.
4. Start saving for medals to buy items like war horse and snare drum.
5. Either play more campaign (inevitable) or try to decrease your turns with rushing. If you’re going to replay HRE (assuming 1798) consider trying the following to do it faster:
a. Play more S/L. You should be able to get Isabela without S/L but doing so will be good practice for Lan and Victoria.
b. Use rush tactics with Golitsyn (after you farm him) to go through to Spain
c. Use Sophia to speed things up in fortified France (place her on the double siege artillery)
d. Try sending A. Charles south and then east against Ottoman – due to his excellent movement (this would be in addition to Deroy and Lusignan). This makes the terrain in western ottoman less of an issue and reduces headaches around Istanbul.
e. Scharnhorst on double-artillery against Italy. Doing C assumes that either Napoleon and Marmont will be destroyed/seriously weakened by Naples (70% of the time) or that Scharnhorst can defeat them 1 v 1 (which is questionable). If things go bad, A.Charles can always cross from western Ottoman to Italy.
f. Russia will engage Poland as quickly or slowly as you do, so at least make a show of attacking the units around Dombrowski (while avoiding engaging him directly)
g. After it is certain that Dombrowski is contained in Poland or has headed north to Prussia, consider sending Rosenberg to Denmark to help out Hotze. 2 crap-generals is always better than 1 crap-general.
h. When beginning your assault on Paris (primarily bombing by Sophia), use Klenau to knock out the coastal fort/artillery on the channel. This makes life much easier for GB to cross the channel with units intact to assist you.
6. If you want a break from HRE 1798, try running for Kate in America campaign. You’ll eventually need navy generals

Once you get Isabella, you should be able to get Victoria/Lan after refreshing and buying a bunch of Kutaisovs. As a 4 slot lineup I would use Isabella, Sophia, Lan, and Victoria. I would recommend buying a last slot, as that enables you to buy trainers for all 4 of those princesses, and then once they're maxed out, you can re-buy Golitsyn, who has 5 stars cavalry and 3 stars movement; he doesn't need to be regrouped. Keep in mind all of this will take a while. It will take a long time to get Lan/Victoria, and then you have to farm even more. |

All i want now is to know what general to buy RIGHT NOW. I want to know if it will be infantry or cavalry or navy or whatever. My final general line-up will be made in a long time(10 millenia) and i will create a thread then. |

Another thing that really bothers me is that i completed conquest in both 49 and 63 turns and got 450 and 400 years ruled respectively and rss was about the same in both games. First was France 1815(63) and the other HRE 1798(49). I know that years rules is weird but seriously that was 14 turns difference! And i won't go for Dumouriez but for Sulkowski who just showed up. I know that it costs a lot of medals but buying items without bussiness general can be more expensive
