It’s… not objectively the best. I don’t think you guys know what objectively means. Not a one-dimensional game and any general can blow out the game since it’s too easy.Both my generals are caster generals because it's objectively the best choice, and it's not even close.Read your abilities?
Rangers are fine. Marksmen are glass cannons so can have trouble vs enemy generals (or stacks that can get to your backline) until you get a good rez.
Combine caster units with your caster general since it gets abilities that buff them. Likewise melee with melee General since it gets Close Combat ability to buff them (and bigger Heal Tent).
Every general eventually gets a Heal, but you can also stack Clerics high for that.
My question was really, what are the best units to use and try to stock up on? Obviously the basic units should be stocked up as much as possible, which mercs should I try to stock up on? Should I split archers between generals or just keep the biggest stack possible on one?
Don’t split stacks. I like a strong army the way the game is with my best units, so if you’ve just got caster generals no reason not to just stock up with your best for your main army while keeping a reserve army that’s strong enough to cover attacking armies.
If you mix your generals you can put Sorcs with your caster since caster can buff them and eventually they will slay along with General.
Melee general can get the most out of things like Conscripts that are cheap and plentiful.
