The point is only using calalry to kill in conquest. Kill means loosing turns. Infantry and arty are not for killing enemies, but rams to crack cities and go in. For me the important skills for infantery are tunnel and tactics master; If you combine those with the mobility of a Rifleman, then there you go. Scharny was great but Garibaldi cracks cities faster, and he is easier to deploy. Auras are great for killing, but if a city is occupied by an enemy troop, either I use cavalry or let it behind.

why 6 cav is not the best: an example rifle men are quite similar to lancer now you may think no lancer are much faster! wrong! rifle men have march because of which they do not suffer from terrain, this makes them comparable fast if you are not running across the plains of russia. the biggest difference is that rifle men have more hp and damage and they unfortunately do less damage on cities and has more defense. with murat vs karl cav is better, but when we think of davout vs katl, karl would easily beat davout, especially if he could strengthen the infantry around him. my conclusion is therefore 3 or 4 cav but certainly not 6 That is exactly the point, Seger. What you have to take into account is the overall throughput of your general, no how much damage he can do. Hence, a general who is easy and quick to deploy near front, and with high mobility would be at the end more profitable than a stronger one who takes longer to deploy. Hence, Garibaldi can be deployed anywhere near front in turn 1 and hit many cities if in a Rifleman along the run. He is weaker in a Rifleman than Ney or Dabrowski on Lancers, but overall he is more profitable than them. 6 cavs wouod be difficult to quckly deploy. And they are not so good at cracking cities ;-) |

Are there any more interesting challenges for the challenging quests? I keep trying to do them but i either get side tracked and forget i did them, or i get bored waiting for the turns to pass by  . the idea was that anyone could add ideas but due to a lack of interest I stopped adding challenges Nah, i'm interested. Just don't have time to complete some of them, atleast with acceptable results . |

Well,so far cojoncio is doing very well,toppling records. I think he determined to make them all his😁 The key word here is "so far". I started my "balanced team" project only a couple weeks ago. My current Infantry team was just created for fun, I never intended to throw it into a serious competition. Yet, even with this team I think I can challenge some of new records. The perfect timing is very important. Right now cojoncio is well motivated and excited about breaking records. But believe me, this feeling is fading away sooner or later  . Besides, his team is fully upgraded now, I suppose. So plateau is behind the corner. And because there is little competition now, you never know how good your records really are. And last but not least, you begin to understand how pointless this competition is, and that you can spend your time in a more productive way . That is the perfect moment to strike With GCR coming out,will you have the time to strike back?😊 |

The best time to strike is when other competitors have left,thus leaving the field wide open.
Knowing you will leave,once GCR is relaesed,makes your records vuneralble😁

Well,many of cojoncio tips are certainly valid. Such as using riflemen,since they fast All I'm sayin,is we should not reject cojoncio,just because they are unconventional,to our normal way of thinking. |

It is only between us |

Have You tried advance by conquer cities with riflemen? His results are achievable. But he still keeps his secrets. I have no idea how to conquer relatively high level cities with riflemen. |

I think he uses a combination of blast, cav and grenadiers to conquer cities |

I am not infrantry based thinking , generaly,i use them to capture/hold cities. If you want discuss,cavalry then that's another thing😁 |

Well, yeah, so riflemen only occupying cities. I hope You don't think it is an innovative move The most interesting is what are those innovative moves cojoncio is using to beat records. By now it is not very clear and we spent 20 pages to recieve couple of answers He is not very interested in revealing it, well it's his right. However it is interesting to share imo. That's just imo. |
