    Lightbulb General and Geo buy backs

    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.

    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?

    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.

    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.
