Best bet is to find out yourself and show your findings here

from what i see, Wu has very good heavy cavalry and crossbow, Chu has really tough crossbowmen and heavy infantry, liangshang best troops are the knights, the liangshang unique cavalry is a bit crap in sieges because they only have lances.

May be a dumb question, but here's any way to know all troops trees / faction ?

Wu = Cavalry
Chu = Infantry
Shu = Infantry
Liangshan = Archer
Liao = Lancer Path
Zhao = Horse Archer
Jin = Thrower
Song = Archer
Han = Cavalry
Sha = Non Axe Infantry.

This is a list of what factions have what direction as their 'elite' units (So the 'best' Wu unit is their cavalry tree, for example.)


Jin faction tree:

Recruit (HP: 42. Ironflesh/Power strike/shield/athletics: 0, Power throw: 1)
Footman (HP: 42. Power throw/Power draw: 2, 0 everything else)

RANGED TREE:
Jin Throwman (HP:49. Ironflesh, Power strike, Weapon master: 1. Athletics: 2. Power throw: 3)
Jin trained throwman (HP: 54. Shield: 1. Ironflesh, Power strike, Athletics: 2. Weapon master: 3. Power throw 4)
Jin veteran throwman (HP: 59, Shield: 2. Ironflesh, power strike, weapon master: 3. Power throw, Athletics: 5)
Jin wind throw guard (HP: 64. Shield: 3. Ironflesh, power strike, weapon master, athletics: 4. Power throw: 6)
Jin wind throw master (HP: 67. Ironflesh, shield: 4. Weapon master, Athletics: 5. Power strike 6. Power throw 7)

MELEE TREE:
Jin veteran (HP: 54. Weapon master, shield: 1. Athletics, power strike: 2. Ironflesh: 3)
Jin Infantry (HP: 61. Weapon master, shield: 2. Power strike, athletics: 3. Ironflesh: 4)

MOUNTED TREE:
Jin veteran (see Melee tree)
Jin Horseman (HP: 54. Ironflesh 1. Weapon master, Athletics: 2. Power strike, Power throw, Shield, Horse archery: 4.) [side-note: None of the mounted units for Jin faction have ranged units, so I'm actually kind of curious about the horse archery/Power throw since it seems like it's just wasted points that are stuck throughout the entire line.]
Jin Ge horseman (HP: 59. Ironflesh, Athletics: 2. Weapon master: 3. Power strike, Power throw, Shield, Horse Archery, Riding: 4)
Jin Ge knight (HP: 65. Ironflesh, Athletics: 3. Weapon master: 4. Power strike, Power throw, Shield, Riding, Horse archery: 5)


Alright this is my contribution to this thread, the Jin troop tree. I might do Sha later, if I'm feeling up to it.

Oh thanks a lot @werewolf435 ! I'm gonna do the same tomorrow with the Han tree since i'm playing them a lot :p
