Quick notes
- Race and class are separate choices. A leader class provides skills and class units while city races supply racial units and traits.
- Use conquered cities thoughtfully. A city of another race can broaden recruitment options.
- Recruit for the battlefield role. Racial rosters include different infantry, ranged, cavalry and support options.
- Keep the original roster clear. Humans, High Elves, Dwarves, Orcs, Goblins and Draconians are the base races.
