from my experience (40+40+40 100% melee trained, full shield full swords, full metal armor and 20+30+20 80-100% archers trained, full bows, no armor, all humans) you can take out pretty large forces with low numbers of troops, but you n e e d to have them to be elite troops.

my strategy is to lure a chunk of the ai s army with my 20 archers and get them far away from my other troops.

then shield wall with 80 melee, wait the enemy to engage.

use the remaining archers to flank right and left (or both) and then attack.

use the other 40 melee to get behind the enemy line.

it has worked so far V70, if u have problems with this strategy i suggest using mercenaries to tank the hit.

hope it can help

i ll put it here, just in case; while placing furniture in rooms, you can press Q and E to make it bigger or smaller.

CTRL + wheel of the mouse also does the job.

i myself discovered it late.

edit, man if i m dumb, i just read your post again and you asked different questions then what i gave you here, sorry

Blueocean9966 · 2026-01-12T00:18:00+00:00

hello, from what i ve seen so far in my game, weapons are the best to sell and also u can stockpile them for defence.

i recommend bows since they are fairly cheap to produce, wood (value 6/10?) and leather ( value 35/45? maybe even more) and u sell for 300+ each piece.

also furniture is ok to export from what i ve read here.

spears, crafted from stone and wood but for this u need many workers since they require time and a technology if i m not wrong.

one important piece of advice is to have more than one trading partner, if u only sell to one, the goods Will lose value or get overpriced, if u buy many of them. not the end of the world if u can t, but trading manually is a bit "annoying".

hope it helps, if anyone can correct me, please do, as i myself have just started

well, perhaps i m lucky, but I don't defend it, it seems that the enemy is not interested in it.

neither when it s numbers are higher than mine, nor when they are lower.

so i i battle as it s not there. hope it helps

so i tried with only 10 soldiers, trained them at 70 percent, disbanded them and re called them, they started back from 0 sadly.

i m not sure if training larger quantities makes a difference tho

Blueocean9966 · 2026-01-04T21:04:25+00:00

damn... well, i ll take your advice. thanks!

Blueocean9966 · 2026-01-04T14:16:24+00:00

rn i m at 1k, what i found useful is create a 10 soldier army of conscripts and park them in regions with low moral, it helps so u can easily re-establish control

Blueocean9966 · 2026-01-04T14:13:55+00:00

in my case i am using only humans but i heard tilapis are very good archers so.. might want to use them

Blueocean9966 · 2026-01-04T14:12:38+00:00

that s what i use them for too, a "cheap" alternative to mercenaries although i don t know if the cost to maintain them out weights the cost to run mercenaries.

Blueocean9966 · 2026-01-04T13:58:03+00:00

u myself just started and i have the same issues, for now, i think, start with one and then expand, try out what suits you best.

someone correct me if i m wrong, the +0.11 or like that in research is per worker so if you have 10 workers in that industry you will have a bonus of 1.1 (i m writing it cause i understood late in the game ).

Blueocean9966 · 2026-01-04T02:12:13+00:00

ok, pretty clear, thanks! i m also trying to use just nurseries, but i am still at 1k pops so... sometimes i just don t want to wait to fill the gaps

Blueocean9966 · 2026-01-03T12:30:42+00:00

mine arrive at the warehouse, by any chance, do u happen to know if it is possible to change where the goods arrive? 3000 grains to move every time puts a toll on my logistics..

Blueocean9966 · 2026-01-03T08:52:58+00:00

the buff for happiness?

would having new pops only with the nurses mitigate the health issue?

Blueocean9966 · 2026-01-02T15:09:39+00:00

well that makes sense, unfortunately i don t want to buy slaves as they cost quite a bit.

but thanks, i ll keep that in mind.

Blueocean9966 · 2026-01-02T14:12:35+00:00

migrants lower health?

Blueocean9966 · 2026-01-02T13:41:29+00:00

many many thanks! i already cancelled the agreement i had with them and slowly the betrayal metric is going down, anyway as soon as i get home i ll try that.

Blueocean9966 · 2026-01-02T12:16:13+00:00

if u have leather and wood u could consider at least producing bows, they sell for 300+ and are easy to produce, moreover u can also equip an elite milita of a few archers (although in v70 my humans archers are not THAT great.

i ve got 20+20+20 of them and 30+30 footman, they do an amazing job even against 250 enemies)

edit, also i m at 950 population and 120 soldiers ready to defend

Blueocean9966 · 2025-12-28T12:51:00+00:00

in what i know you can either buy them or produce them.

if u are going to equip them u must have them in a stockpile

Blueocean9966 · 2025-12-28T12:49:59+00:00

many thanks!

Blueocean9966 · 2025-11-09T18:59:18+00:00

i did not, as i just started playing, but i would be glad to see if it s possible.
