As you play the game, you acquire better generals and geos. It would be nice to have the ability to sell back old generals/geos for like 1/3 of the cost to purchase. Otherwise, they just take up space in the STAR menu because you don't use them as much as the others. :cool:
Making them tradeable from the star menu would be ideal.
Many use the tavern generals for blocking, those that don't want to would be able to sell them.
Think hard before you buy I say. If they gave 1/3 of the money back they would lose profit from people buying them. I have all the generals except the new ones through beans/stalks so far. Trust me, I still don't have enough to carry my army in one trip to an island and there are players with a lot higher pop limit then me.
This would be a bad idea for many reasons.
What generals would you be selling back? Lets look at each type, one at a time
Normal general: Use these for blocking all the time, don't want to get rid of them.
BH general: These are good for fast transporting of troops to/from island/adv. These are also good generals to use for the multi-wave attacks, as sacrifices.. These are BAD generals to use for blocking, because their fighting time is HALF of a normal general (blocking is meant to take as much time as possible, so your real attack can finish).
Vet general: You'd have to be out of your mind to want to sell back a vet.
Major general: See not for Vet general.
So again, what general(s) would you want to sell back, and why?
geos are understandable to want to get rid of, i have bought one geo from tavern and i never use him, id like to get rid of him, but i will keep all my generals and buy as many as i can.
I'd only need about 2 geologists as I upgrade 2 to full and I don't see the need of having anymore of them. But for generals, the more the better, if there is more normal generals I'd buy all.
Maybe they could have general support another, that way you would never have too many of them...the support could give a + damage, prevent slight damage...or add as staff in the barrack and improve it in a way or another
I have 4, I wouldn't sell any back. I have 3 tavern's + 1 geo. It still takes me quite a while to find all 16 iron ore deposits.Quote:

LOL, that's right. Structure your entire life around this game so your iron mines are staggered. Ummmm, No.Quote:

troop transport is quick and painless with the QM generals, allows you to use BHG/grim for sacs/tags only.
Well Hob, Eq has 3 tavern geos and 1 jolly geo. Takes a Tavern Geo 1 hour to find an Iron deposit. For arguments sake, lets say his geo's don't have the find a double Iron deposit trained in the skill tree.
3 tavern geo's find 3 iron deposits in 1 hour, Jolly finds 2 (half the time). That is 5 iron deposits per hour. There are 16 total.
Therefore, you're spending 3hrs to find 15, than still have to send your Jolly Geo out 1 more time, which makes it 3.5hrs to find all 16.
So Hob, how is that not structuring your life around the game, if you do it all in 1 hit, every time they deplete?
Where if they are staggered, like 3-4 in the morning before you go to work. 3-4 when you get home from work, etc.
Your argument boils down to "I found another way to do it that still structures my life around the game, so that means you can't play without structuring your life around the game." You're presenting false choices because you're basing them off only one option; that of finding every deposit that requires discovering.
There are other options. That was my point. But everyone gets to play how they want, so please do enjoy the game your way.
LOL, I have 6 geos and thinking about buying another just to speed up my marble and iron finds. I'd NEVER sell them *never say never*.
