    Avian/War Hero Pure Attacker

    Suggestions? Haven't played a while, going with banks/arms to build up leets for now. Not sure what to do later in the game yet, right now planning to wing it. So suggestions would be nice.

    Thanks VT2 for restating my point in an overly dramatic fashion. :-[

    Being 'pure' anything is an invitation to all to have their way with you.
    If you don't have two of the three - A, T, M - you're going to end up being a waste of a slot in your kingdom.

    Avian's decent for both T and M, since it has no penalties to either. Pick one, back it with a fat offense, and proceed to pick people apart with your superior speed.
    Warhero makes you last a bit longer, but warrior means you'll get more hits out there, so there'll be less 'lasting' done on your part.
    Like orc, your biggest enemy will be the unavoidable masses of land you're going to bring in. There's little you can do to protect yourself from magic once you get fat, but if you make it a habit to put up watchtowers once you start to get fat, you can at least slow down the death of your army some.
    Catwalk's crusade for legalized cheating was a stunning success, with ghettos and low-tiered teams everywhere losing their wells of knowledge to better kingdoms in the process.

    Step one: replace everything that works.
    Step two: blame the predictable epic fail on outside forces.
    Step three: keep the community informed that no progress has been made since the last update.
    Step four: thank you for your patience.

    Elf war hero as an Am. Still good without ToG? I think the -50% losses and wages would leave enough money to train elites right?

    Elf is still one fhe three kings.
    The removal of tree of gold simply made it less overwhelmingly powerful.

    Hey VT2.. you're right most of the time, but when you called "Freak" a garbage personality, you couldn't have been more wrong. Gnome/Freak was an insane combo- I know because I was a top 100 prov when I ran it back in the day til I had to give it up for personal reasons, it was actually unfair it was so powerful!

    Bring back "the Freak"!!! call it a SuperFreak- I'm Rick James beatch!!!!!

    Orc is one, no idea what VT thinks the other is.

    I'm pretty sure he's talking about Elf/Dwarf/Human.

    Orc has no spine.

    depends on your activity.

    sage is great, my personal choice since i am active, but not necessarily enough that i will guarantee to be there the SECOND my army gets home.

    warrior is great if your activity is great and/or you have inet access everywhere u go.

    merchant is also not bad, build up your troops with great efficiency and at the same time afford to run a high sci rate.

    rogue, with great human sci and income, you can train/replace your thieves efficiently while being able to help your KD with ops. Just keep them active and stealing all the time for aid/stockpiling.

    Elf/Dwarf/Human

    MMM...especially this age, with undead gone and orc gobbling up that that plague bonus, orc outclasses dwarf in power as if it didn't already used to. I never really liked human that much anyways. You wonder why human and dwarf are now the 2 least popular races? Anyway, it's just my opinion. Since VT2 likes hybrids only, orc might not be as good of a choice for him as I think of it. Let's hear from VT2.

    no, it wasnt - it was good versus noobs, anyone decent kd would have ripped a gn/fr apart. it was fun to play, but useless unless you went gnome pretty much.

    I do remember my full leet dwarf freak on gen back when they had 6/6 leets being pretty darn awesome, Bishop :p

    But yeah, freak was cool, but did kinda suck...
