Re: Break Cranny or Heal?

With a cav/arc army hidden attack isn't as important as when you use cats. I would recommend heal and break cranny. Healnis good for saving prestige during battles and break cranny is good for both farming and when you are attempting to starve someone.

Re: Break Cranny or Heal?

Cav/Arch army you should have a decent hidden attack (~5) and as usual, a high break cranny. Unless you have a staggering amount of cav/arch then you will almost always lose a few troops during every battle, so heal is good as well. Hidden attack hides your attacks, and since catapults are slower than cav/arch, the enemy will have time to prepare for your catapult attack rather than the short amount of time in which your cav/arch reach there. However hidden attack is still useful for cav/arch.
I use a ratio cavalry:archer 2:1, but that depends on your personal preferences.

Re: Break Cranny or Heal?

It seems easier to work towards achieving 250 cats n inf, compared to 2.5k cav for 1lvl fort farm... or is there any other way to get 2.5k asap. Also, can someone provide the number of cav losses taking a fort 1lvl...

Re: Break Cranny or Heal?

People like break cranny but I am surrounded by more inactives with Max warehouses than I can count so it's of no use to me.

People say hidden is more necessary with cats than cav, but I beg to differ. Any warning is a good warning no matter what unit attacks you.

But ultimately, when fighting with a unit almost guaranteed to take losses, heal reigns supreme. It equals less losses thus more prestige.

To me, prestige is much more important than resources.

As far as tech, max them all.

Re: Break Cranny or Heal?

Heal will heal a percentage based on your skill level ANYTIME your troops are killed in battle. This will be noted on your war report.

Heal will heal 2% of all dead troops per level of the skill. 
If you have a lv4 heal, that means you heal 8% of your casualties. 
8% of your 2 dead cav is 0.16 cav, or basically the big toe of the guy who rides that horse, which is why you're not seeing results. 
With a lv4 heal skill, you'll need to see at least 12 or 13 cav die before any get healed in battle.
