These troops must, and I repeat: must be in your army because they are one of the few infantry species that are capable of allowing your army to stand up and shoot off against other enemy elites. You really have two options that you can choose from (or choose both 😀 ), the Lifeguard Foot and the Semenovski Lifeguard. Do not bring in more than 3 elites as the cost can get quite heavy and you may find yourself lacking in other areas of your army later on.

Since all users now have all the Napoleon Total War DLC’s for free (yay thanks Creative Assembly!), you have quite the selection of troops available for your army.

There are two ways to get around this: I will also caution you to not be tempted by the experimental howitzer, as they are expensive pieces of artillery and they never seem to hit their target or get you any kills. ArtilleryĪs previously stated, do not touch the Unicorn artillery (unless the game rules don’t state it or you personally hate your opponent to bits).
