I've been waffling for a while over the best way to promote my (non-Arcane) heroes. Ideally they will eventually get all of the important promotions, but the way to spend the first 9 or so free promotions is the real question. Here are the issues I've been struggling with:
Should I start with Combat I-V, or should I throw Shock in there?
If my hero has only one move, should I give him Mobility before he gets to Combat V?
After they get Combat I-V, should I give them Heroic Strength, or City Raider?
At what point should I go down the Drill line to get Blitz?
When should I give them Heroic Defense? What about Cover?
Which of the less-useful promotions (like Woodsman, Hill Defense, Scourge, Demon Slaying, Magic Resistance, Bounty Hunter) is worth investing in first?
Unitcombat-specific questions:
Melee/Disciple--when should I give the hero March?
Recon/Mounted--when should I give the hero Mobility II?
Obviously a lot of the answers to these questions should be based on the situation (Scourge is good against the Malakim, Cover against the elves, etc), but I'm wondering if people have general rules-of-thumb that they'd like to share.
