When choosing who to fight your battles, what do you guys prefer?
I normally use my king to ensure he gets a couple extra starts before his sons come of age, to enhance my chances of getting better offspring. But when the sons start kicking in, I use the heir to make sure he has the biggest window of opportunity (age 16 -> death some 50-60 turns later) to become a master general, and making his sons optimal quality.
But lately I've thought about taking a 0-star quality unit leader and make exclusive use of him, adding titles to give those extra stars. This gives a little added role-play element as well.
There is also the 'green general' discussion hidden behind this question, but lest us assume it is off. For arguments sake, we are also not playing the Byz.
How do you groom your generals?
