Vanguards are a close-second with how a shock cavalry's charge into most units will utterly total enemy units, unless they have charge negation or charge reflection.at which then you can just rear charge them, which will total pretty much any unit.

Strategists are practically a must-have in every army, since they're the only hero type to be able to recruit missile units above the basic Archer Militia, and have access to the only usable-against-enemy-units siege weapon in the game, Trebuchets (which are a Game-Breaker in of themselves).

note Part of the historical Longzhong Plan by Zhuge Liang involved the taking over of Jingzhou (which Liu Biao's territory formed the northern half of the southern half was held by Sun Jian at the game's start) before expanding to Yizhou. Kong Rong's main difficulty is a mandatory battle with Yellow Turban rebels near Beihai a few turns into his campaign. In contrast, Ma Teng can become hampered by his alliance with Han Sui, while his starting position is uncomfortably close to Dong Zhuo, making it difficult to grab Han commanderies without igniting a big war. His only difficulty at the start is a shortage of food, which can be resolved by trading with his vassals.

Players trying for the 'Han Shot First' achievement will play as a governor faction, and is very likely to choose Liu Biao, as his starting position is by far the strongest/flexible of the three original governors.

note It also doesn't hurt that Liu Bei doesn't start with a heir at this point. Making Lu Bu the faction heir is pretty much the only way to keep him loyal and a loyal Lu Bu is a beast. Liu Bei players starting in 194 CE will almost always adopt Lu Bu when he offers to join Liu, and then make him faction heir.For that matter, anyone starting remotely near the south will rush to grab the Han commanderies in the south-east, as three of the map's six copper mines are located in the region copper allows the player to eventually build a mint in the settlement to reduce faction-wide inflation.Players who want a relatively easy time will use Sun Jian, due to the reasons listed under his Demonic Spiders entry below.Cao Cao players starting in 190 CE would almost certainly use Cao Song in some form of marriage diplomacy, since Song is going to die a few turns into the game.However, players have noted the lack of attention towards 'Records' mode, making it less balanced than the 'Romance' mode.

This persists in spite of the fact that the game has two different modes of campaign: a realistic historical one, and an embellished romantic one with the standard Wuxia flair. Broken Base: Some think that CA should decide between history and fantasy instead of adapting a semi-historical heroic fantasy novel.

With the patch accompanying Fates Divided, these were resolved.

Author's Saving Throw: Prior to Fates Divided, several factions which were playable in certain start dates were not playable in others despite their existence examples include Yuan Shu and Ma Teng in 182 CE, and Liu Chong in 194 CE.

Anti-Climax Boss: Dong Zhuo can come off as this to players who aren't familiar with the time period, as the work that the promotional materials put into setting him up as the Big Bad is usually undone when he's assassinated by Lü Bu near the beginning of the 190 CE campaign.

This means you have to constantly reorder them to pursue fleeing enemies every two seconds or so.

Annoying Video Game Helper: Some Hero units like Sun Ce can gain a passive ability that makes them stronger and faster in melee at the cost of making them uncontrollable, which is usually more trouble than it's worth, because not only can they not use special abilities anymore, they also always terminate all commands when the rage wears off.
