Special Note : Robert the Bruce
If you look at just the basic skills, he seems to be a good ground PvP (attack) general, but assuming the specialty is maxed out, he is not a good PvP (attack) general because the fourth specialty is only active when he is a defense general.

Hi, regarding Scipio skill books, I am using ground speed, defense and hp. some says speed not needed and replace with attack. What is your suggestion. I thought its important to reach archers asap so used speed. once ground reach them even low attack of ground should take care of them, as def/hp are weak of archers.
Or should I keep speed and replace def or hp with attack?
Hi Naimul.😃
I have the same idea as you. (I prioritize speed, HP, defense)
Please take a look at the following article for an explanation of the skills you should put on a ground general.
Best Skills Guide – what skills should you add?
Also, the following article explains about fighting infantry and ranged soldiers.

Thanks for the response. Nice to know you think the same :D.
I will stick to it for now.
It’s nice to meet you, Mr. Author. I always refer to your various articles and enjoy playing your games every day.
I was hoping to get an Africanus, but now I understand that Trajan is just as good!
I’ll be sure to get him when he shows up in the tavern!
Since there are articles on archers and infantry, it would be nice to see some of the best cavalry generals!
Just published an article on the best generals in the cavalry! 😃
Best of Mounted PvP General
I got Nobunaga just because he’s Japanese like me, and I’ve been training him in a subordinate city, but looking at it this way, there’s an overwhelming difference between him and Trajan…
I think I’ll exchange Trajan for cash when I get him.
