Default Re: another noob question...

On a larger map game you can also gather your army on the way to the war. I wait to gather a huge army of nationals then send them, the war will be over before they get there. So I make troops along the entire path. I make a national leader, some elite troops, some summons, and a few items (pot, bag, sword) for feeding the troops. Then as I travel I pick up elephants here, knights there, some archers, some heavy infantry, some javilineers, even a large batch of slingers.
