The regeneration ability of FM in combination with faction leader and heirs, was something I had to squeeze early on. I usually don't fight battles without a faction leader or heir, due to the fact that I can send them into harsh situations where regular cavalry would take permanent casualties. On large unit size, with 10 influence and some good ancillaries, Iusually get 61 members in the Romani consular guard for faction leaders.

I was amazed when I got charged by the Ptolemaio family member bodyguards against my phalanx. They would not die, they kept on trying to go through. It took spearmen to envelope them and 2 minutes later the general would die.

On another note, I made some personal modifications to the character trait file so that the training of new governors becomes more streamlined. This is for those that want to see exactly what their generals have in terms of intelligence, charisma, vigor, and the interesting things he can get if he has enough intel, charism, vigor. If anyone thinks they might wish to use this because they want to know how to train good FMs or if they want a more logical way of figuring out if a FM is good or bad, I can upload it for those that want it.
