Go the looter 5 guy start strategy. The starting choices should be listed somewhere either on this forum or the wiki, please seek them out and create your next AE to your own preferences.

Depends on what you like.
Fierdsvain huscarls for sheer 1 on 1 killy power with axes and throwing weapons.
D'shar bladesmen and blademasters for choping through enemy armies like they are made of wet tissue paper in front of a hurricane.
Imperial Legionaires for a solid core with javelin spam. Nothing terribly special in the 1 on 1 department but hold their own long enough for supporting units to bring the pain.
Don't bother with kiersguard unless you like soviet style human life is cheap tactics.
If you can afford their upkeep and recruiting cost Knights of the Ebony Gauntlet or Immortals are the best bet.
Barring your own custom overpowered as hell Knightly orders.
If you can find the Meltinine horseman bow it's already a better option than the Short Composite bow, but the better bows are the Noldor ones. Either the basic Composite version or the special ones like Duskfall. It's fairly easy to get a Strong one from Quigfen, or if with a bit of luck a basic one at Elacrai.Cyzyk said:What are the best bows for a horse archer (hero, not KO)? I'm running around with a fine composite bow and Noldor arrows, and it's frustrating to have to headshot a Knight of the Dawn multiple times to kill one. It's one thing to need three bodyshots, but baiting their attack to get the shield out of the way and lining up a headshot is a lot of work to not kill somebody.
Especially when the Sarleonian knaves breed them like rabbits and never seem to have less than ten in their armies even a week after being defeated.
Suggestions on how to find said bow would also be welcomed. Unfortunately, my barbarian bonus rune bow has already come and gone.
I am also wondering this.Adrale said:Do you need to do multiple training sessions with the same companions? I have sent leth once and diev twice but my knights are still at power draw 2. Leth is currently doing his second 4 week session.

I can neither buy, e.g. the Forlon Hope Plate Suit, or the black armour Sigismund Sinclair has by default.
Did i forget something?
Yes, you'll need some time. Each day you have a % chance to raise the stat, where Trainer and high stat difference increase your odds. But even at 5% (which is pretty good) you'll need 20 days on average to raise the stat once. The exact formula is around here somewhere.Adrale said:Do you need to do multiple training sessions with the same companions?

I go decent str/agi/cha build, but mostly int, and later on use cabbages to max out all the stats.

My Ediz, Siggy and Leth all have 30 strength. For 30 str, use someone with 30 strength to train your CKOBargian said:Some of top noldor stuff ull get for relasing one of noldor lord, cant remember which 1
Hmm does ur troops have enought str for that kind of armor?
