------------------------------------------------------------------------ SOME BASIC GUIDELINES FOR TITAN PLAY by David desJardins last updated 4/9/2000 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rule: Don't split stacks smaller than 7 without a good reason. Comments: The growth of your legions is a function of their strength as well as their number. If you have legions which are too weak to take a recruit or move into a good recruiting position because that location is too dangerous, then you are losing recruits just as surely as if you had not split at all. This frequently happens to four- and five-high legions, which is why you want to minimze the period of time you spend in that state. Exceptions: In the early stage of two (and occasionally three) player games, if you are on a safe part of the board, it may make sense to split more aggressively in order to grow quickly. But it is easy to overdo this. Another exception occurs very late in a game, when a legion has no remaining combat value. In that case you might split it up into several small stacks, which you can use for blocking or just to make it harder for an enemy to kill all the pieces. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rule: Don't split 4-3 without a good reason. Comments: Just keeping three centaurs/ogres/lions/trolls together is NOT a good reason, unless the three-high stack has a significant function to perform and has a good chance of surviving to perform it. It is generally much more important to lend that extra safety to your good stack than to worry about what happens to your castoffs. Exceptions: When the main stack is not so hot either. For example splitting off three ogres from three ogres, two trolls, and two rangers. The safety of the main stack is not a big concern, so if the other indicators are right (good access to hills/towers, plenty of rangers left) you might do this. You might even split three ogres and a ranger. And, when you are trying to grow quickly on
