Around 98 cities and you will get 105 medals twice a day. As for 6, I got my 6th mission at around 60-70 cities just recently. I honestly don’t think you should get Li Shimin till discovery, if at all. Now you can get caesar or atilla. I myself am planning on buying Caesar myself as the next general, but Atilla has no retaliation also and can boost Saladin’s output, whereas Caesar can heal everybody on your team and soak in a lot of damage (although Petain can take the most beating out of all the infantry generals). I say go for Atilla. As for Li Shimin, don’t buy him till at least discovery. Caesar will work well with both Barbarossa, Alexander, and Peter who you can get soon. |

It depends, do you know which formation you intend to go for? As for the cities, from memory I think it's about 60 & 90 but don't quote me on that. I intend to find out for sure on this play through. |

Im going for archcom but still I want to buy both of these guys, i just dont know which one should i buy first Well if you definitely intend on getting both then I'd say it's a case of six and two threes. They're both only 2* when you buy them so will need some upgrading before they're up to speed with the rest. If you buy Attila now he'll compliment Saladin (& Hannibal), whereas if you buy Li first he'll be boosted by Khalid's commander skill. It's probably a case of personal preference & playing style, and I'd also take into consideration which of your current team you intend on keeping for the long(er) haul i.e. if you plan on dropping Hannibal, Saladin or Khalid anytime soon then that could swing the balance one way. Oh, and Li might bring more value in conquest I suppose. Ideally some input from Singlemalt & stoic might be helpful as they have both used both of these generals (I predict Stoic would vote for Attila)  |

Yeah, it is nice to have one, but until Discovery age we can live without him. There's another reason as well... Li Shimin is one of the most expensive generals in the game (price, promotion, upgrades). Attila on the other hand has relatively modest demands in this respect. A very important factor until we have all available daily missions... |

A very important factor until we have all available daily missions... Actually I just realised Attila is only 1* when you buy him, which is a bit *Auto Corrected*ed as I just bought him myself yesterday Based on that I'll plump for him too, otherwise it would take even longer to make him playable if you buy him second. When you get a shiny new toy you want to play with it asap  |

And just after getting 3000 medals was I saved with this thread.
So should I buy Yi Sun Sin over Li Shimin instead?

If you have problems with overall defense of your team, - the answer is obvious - Yi Sun-Sin. If, on the other hand, walls and castles are too difficult to destroy - then Li Shimin. |

I recommend upgrading your gens a bit & fitting them out with grey equipment if they've some empty slots. You may want to focus on skills like Leadership & Logistics in order to ensure greater survivability. Then, if you buy Li Shimin & PERFECTLY (NO stopping for anything other than to protect allied targets) execute a blitzkrieg playstyle, you'll see yourself winning before attrition kills you. |

Thats what I am am doing, well either that or buying Caesar. But if you are going for archcom, getting Yi Sun Sin makes a lot of sense, as he can is a good team player, and can wreck other archers. He isn’t too expensive honestly, |
