    Pro tips for settlers gaming

    10 pro tips:
    Code:
    1: Tavern general can't hold 250 troops
    2: Don't wait for a general/geologist that was never sent
    3: Don't wait for a loot no one claimed.
    4: Helps if you add a new book when taking the last one out
    5: Unsleeping a building after it gets buffed can be useful for it's production
    6: Explorers skilled for buff finding won't find buffs on adventure searches.
    7: A geologist without books won't find a fast mine
    8: It helps to fill your general b4 sending it back to the adventure!
    9: You don't need more pop/houses if you forget to fill your barracks.
    10: You might loose some cannons if you forget to add tanks
    All these been thoroughly tested and maybe forgotten every now and then.

    What if you are sending a general to pick up troops from your adventure?

    To point 5: Also worth to check the storhouse if it has enough room for expected amount of production...

    Cannons can be replaced with crossbows if you don't mind losing elites. And crossbows.
    Starting an adventure without looking at your troops count is a great way to start an evening watching the barracks.

    When you swap out a general's troops between battles, make sure you hit OK before clicking "ATTACK".

    (Simulated that one over 2200 times...)

    Ok, a real tip: balancing your economy is not the same as optimising your economy.
