Generals?
 

Hi.
What do they do and how do they work? Do they need recruiting?

Quotes from the help:

"Every troop needs a leader, who says where to go and make out the strategy in battle. This person is the general. More than one general can join each troop, but since you have a fixed amount of generals, the more you send with each troop, the less troops you can send at the same time."

"The more generals join the troop you send out, the stronger your troop will be. Generals give the following strength bonus:

1 general 0% bonus
2 generals 3% bonus
3 generals 5% bonus
4 generals 6% bonus
5 generals 7% bonus
6 generals 8% bonus
7 generals 10% bonus
8 generals 20% bonus"

They cannot die, cannot be hurt, they're just there :)
