This game genuinely reminds me why I don't play strategy game, and it honestly just make me want to choke the developer through the screen. I will personally knock on your door and lick your knob 22 times.
Handling troops in this game piss me off especially bc of random raids, if a territory have less than 20 troop it's gg bc you can't send troop there since you need 5(?)ish turn until it arrive, and you can't send less than 20 troop bc random raid or desert will and the troop you just send will not be enough for the requirement of obedience not dropping and if you have building there it's minus 60 gold bc lmao.
I really wish we either have 20 reserve or GGK the capital just doesn't need managing
Wow just wow.
If you try to move to fast you will lose.
You have got to build up each one before you move to the next. This includes troops and buildings.
Then use the buildings to increase the stats in the state and your golden.
You get enough troops to put 20 in each one and 1 of them can have 30, easy peasy.
Once you have 20 in each state and 30 in one and you have built all the buildings for each state raids are nothing.
Now after the above and you got all states in good shape then you can move on the next state by first doing the quest with MC.
When your ready to attack move every troop you have next to the state you want to attack and once they all move there you attack.
If you have built everything in every state you don't have to worry about raids.
When you finish the attack move all troops back to the states dividing them up to be even then take time to rebuild your troops back to 20 each with one having 30.
This game is so simple to win.
Build all buildings.
Recruit 20 in each state and 30 in one.
Do MC's quests.
Once all the above are completed your golden to move on the next state.
Rince and repeat the above before moving on to a new state.
If raids bother you that much then take that state next to stop the raids but above all else build, build and build some more.
