Well, this is going to be hard since you guys already are surrounded by units that will cause huge battles...

Where would you like to move and with who?


Targets:

Easiest:
Yuug who is to the north west.


Medium:
four generals to the west.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Hardest:
five generals to the north east.

Well, you guys are lucky that they aren't from another kingdom or they would be able to move freely around the world map (from what I now, free generals can't move).  I would suggest everyone partying if you plan to kill the people to the west.  Those guys to the north east however, probably could kill everyone.  I won't be moving my general however until we get some open for grabs generals since you need to hold castles to replenish any units that are lost in battle.

*shrug* Never played the game before, so I don't know how much we can do before heading out. So I'm trying to give broad strategic direction for my General until I get a sense of what can and can't be done.

Since all those generals are in a group, we probably won't be able to use hit and run tactics since I think you only can retreat if you are defending from a attack.  In 5-10 minutes I'll send the four of you to meet them unless anyone has any objections.  Also, I think it randomly picks a general from the list and we pick who goes up against them.

You have thirty.  The three is how many medals you have in it, which each medal gives an extra ten units.  Also, anyone who has the ability to use multiple units want to switch to a different kind?  Just tell me what ones you want to use.

Hmm...ok. So, I have 10 Beasts and that's about all I can do so far.

What does grouping do for us if we can't help one another?

From what I am guessing, if every unit of yours gets defeated and the enemy is still alive, one of the other generals can help finish it off.  I also think it makes it so your general isn't captured but will have to see.

As an update to the map, there is a forest shrine down there someone might want to go to later to see what it does.



Also, I learned free generals can actually move but lets show entrance to battle:

Both leaders of their group's remarkes


Who we have to fight first, 20 cavalry


So who wants to fight them?  I'll give you guys five minutes to chose or I'm picking who I think is the best suited for it.

Chose Barbarossa's general.

I'm probably going to ask you guys how we should do battles later on since I personally think this takes to long.

Generals


The strategy screen: this is possibly different for every general and unit type, so I'll ask you which one you choose for a fight.


You can't change which one you use after you start the battle.
Special: Has all units forward.
Offensive: Most go forward, some stay in back.
Defensive: Most in back, some go forward.
Breach: Not entirely sure but it give a speed up to your units.

Unless you guys really want to, I probably will control this screen for the most part.  This is what the general movement orders of the units during combat.


I'll just list what melee and advance do since this is long enough.
Melee: Units just go all out melee, running forward to the general, possibly uncontrollable for the rest of the battle.(Not Known)
Advance: Sends units to walk forward toward enemy (suggested not to be used when having archers and mages).

I'll give Barbarossa a few minutes to decide or I'll just finish it for the next fight.

I don't really know if I should continue this anymore or not... I thought it would go a lot smother then it currently is.  Either way battle is finished and screens.  Also, give me your thoughts on if this should go on or not, I can go either way but I need your decision.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Who wants to do the next fight?  Also should we continue and how should battles go?  This is going to take forever to finish this lets play at its current pace.
