General and Geo buy backs

What you should do is stagger them out, so they don't all deplete at the same time. 3 in the morning, 3 in the evening, 3 the next morning, etc. They take a little time to be depleted, so it wouldn't be such a hassle to rediscover all 16 of them at one shot.

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

99% of the time i wont use all my generals, but there are times when all of one type are used.

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*.
