Legendary Hector Early Game Guide | Total War Saga: Troy

[@MattSmith-yz3lc]

Great guide I keep getting destroyed as hector, this helped alot

[@TotalWarhead]

Awesome to hear!

[@gerardoespinoza4335]

How did you get so many troops in the beginning? I mean, every time I try to do the final step to conquer Gargarea, I end up with only my archers and the OP Troyan Soldiers were disbanded. And I start with no more than 30 units while you have like 50 or more.

[@TotalWarhead]

Hey Gerardo, do you have less of a resource than I do? Are you doing mythic mode and using resources to recruit the mythical army? Thanks

[@alphabromega859]

I moved to I swear the exact same pixel you did and the settlement came in as reinforcements and completely wiped my army. campaign over by turn 7. not sure what I did wrong but it must have been patched or something.

[@TotalWarhead]

Dang, that's unfortunate 😭

[@alphabromega859]

@@TotalWarhead i was wrong. i moved literally one single pixel over and it worked. had to restart but it worked. thanks for the strat.

[@dogukannalkran4072]

i tried to get that "reckless" skill but couldn't get it. other than that great guide for Hector. Thanks.

[@TotalWarhead]

You know, I have noticed I don't get it sometimes. Maybe there is an amount of casualties that be killed in battle to get it.

[@dogukannalkran4072]

@@TotalWarhead i finally got it this time :) thanks man.

[@raulnavarrete963]

What about royal decrees? Looks like you started with royal stone ?

[@TotalWarhead]

After playing the game many times more, I would say the decree to start with is the gold one, then go to royal stone and work your way down to the one that gives +2 favour per turn for the gods. I will be remaking all early game guides, as I have learned so much more playing the game. Thanks!

@@TotalWarhead Did you ever do the remakes on the guides? If so, where can I find them. Watch these all the time to try and get better!

[@TotalWarhead]

@@CyanideAssassin99 I did not do remakes.

[@OdysseyAviation]

Is it normal that when I click sometimes cities or the other tabs in the game there is delay of 1-2 second to pop up the Ui ?

[@TotalWarhead]

That sounds excessive

[@john8192005]

Is there a way to look up battle effects and traits for heros? Looked online and can't seem to find anything.

[@john8192005]

I am wanting to see what heros can unlock for doing certain things.

[@TotalWarhead]

I think you will need to log it as you play and keep it tabulated.

[@morgaroth1980]

the audio is too delayed, making comprehension difficult

[@TotalWarhead]

Yes it is a problem that comes from how I recorded this video. Apologies

[@AzoiatheCobra]

honestly.... hector or paris for archer spam? and are they good on chariots? and, on mythos, which monster? hydra or cerberus?

[@TotalWarhead]

Archer spam is Paris all the way. As for monster. Cerberus. The economic and military benefits are sooooo good

[@AzoiatheCobra]

@@TotalWarhead 1- But... Paris is such a... blagh... although lorewise he beated hector in a tournament final... can i do it? 2- Cerberus is great, i aggree, but he becomes boring because undead armies turn any other unit that shares that role obsulete for that faction, all thank to the no unkeep. And the no replenish isnt a big deal because you will be spamming in every province the cerberus building, so you can recruit them at any province. I might be one of the few that prefer thruth behind than the mythos... yes mythic units are great, but the big 3 warp the gameplay a bit to much, specially if you cant ignore them. 3- if you make a pronvice especialised on recruiting, which altar would you prefer? Mellee province: Ares or Athena? Ranged province: Apollo or Artemis? or hephastus, so that you dont spend gold on upgrade the units?

[@TotalWarhead]

@@AzoiatheCobra Athena for defensive units, Ares for offensive units, Artemis for missiles, and for hephaestus u walk the armies u recruit in the provinces with those regions to combine it all together
