although it's true that the upkeeping of elites is much more efficient when compared to soldiers, the price of the elite is overwhelming in contrast. so correct me if i'm wrong, soldiers are actually cheaper ;)

It may be Cheaper earlier on, due to the cost of buying them and the valuable of their stats as compared to the Elites, but once it gets to a certain size, due to the Hourly Upkeep, it will get much more expensive. YupZ. =)

Plus with the General hero, elite casualties would be halved. This means that less men will be lost during a battle.

To elaborate further:
Solders cost one gold/hr for upkeep. Each soldier adds one attack and defense point to your total. 40,000 soldiers would cost 40,000 gold/hr, for 40,000 attack and 40,000 defense.
Pikemen and Knights are the same. For 2 gold/hr upkeep, you get three attack or defense, with the remaining stat at 1. 40,000 pikemen or knights would cost 80,000 gold/hr, and give you (assuming we're talking about pikemen) 120,000 defense and 40,000 attack.
Elites cost 3 gold.hr for upkeep. 40,000 elites would cost 120,000/hr tp upkeep. 40,000 elites would have an attack/defense of 200,000. In addition, Elites die only half as often as the first three soldier types, saving you a great load of gold.

Point to add. Zombies are the most worthless. (expensive & powerless)
expensive... Defender - 500 for 10pt(5attack+5defence) - 50g for 1pt Elite - 700 for 10pt - 70g for 1pt Berserker -500 for 10pt - 50 for 1pt Legionnaire -400 for 8pt - 50 " Wizard - 400 for 8pt - 50 " Assassins 400 for 8pt - 50 " Zombies 400 for 6pt - 67 " Machina 1000 for 10pt -100 "
powerfless 1 Soldier (1Attack-1Defense), upkeeping cost = 1g 1 Pikeman with 1 Knight (4Attack-4Defence), upkeeping cost = 4g 1 zombie (3Attack-3Defence), upkeeping cost = 3g. works out all having the same power-cost ratio with the soldiers'.
I wonder what were the developers thinking...

I believe that you could revive zombies, but they are just too useless Someone 3x my size attacked me and he lost horribly... I was at 34k land and he was at 100k land I don't know how he lost, but he did, I stripped 8k land from him right after his attack (lol) Too bad he got out of range now... I wonder how he did it though...
