Building Armies in An Shi Rebellion

Building armies is one of your four official jobs. “Build your armies” sits right beside conquest and city development in the official description — force construction is a first-class system, not an afterthought. (Source: Steam store page)

What Is Confirmed?

• Armies are built — recruitment is a player system.
• They fight to quell the rebellion across a free-roaming map.
• The era is Tang dynasty, 755 (official premise — see our historical background).

Unit rosters, stats and recruitment costs are in-game data we will not invent.

Genre-Smart Force Building (community estimates)

• Quality core, expandable wings. A small veteran core that survives battles is worth more than repeated fresh hordes; casualties cost experience, not just numbers.
• Armies your cities can pay for. Match force size to your city economy — an unpaid army is a rebellion of your own.
• Keep a reserve. In rebellion-era strategy, the second wave decides the year; spend the last army on a front and you have nothing for events. (community estimate)
• Refit after battles. Grand-strategy campaigns are won between wars, not just in them.
