normally you want to upgrade the Peasant line to Disciple, but in this crazy game where I had 2 disciples already and piles were running low, it seemed like maybe staying at soldier would be better. Sure enough, 2 soldiers generated 21 income on this final turn.
as a bonus, this is one of the few games where exchanging on the final turn mattered -- Wolf Den was on the board, meaning it was worth turning in those last two Disciples for a Teacher (to match the teacher already-in-deck).

It's always good to have *every single* part of the travellerline in an engine.
Peasant: +buy
Solider: Attack + Paylod
Fugitive: makes sure your engine runs smoother
Disicipline: gainer + throne room
Teacher: distribute tokens
It regularly happens that I just have the entire peasnat line (multiples) + 1 or 2 other cards to put tokens on for maximum effect.
In a game with Sauna/avanto, margrave and Hamlet... that's just glorious. Hamlet with +1 card, margrave with +1 action and sauna with +coin would be glorious.

Soldier is actually really awesome when stacked, even with no other attacks around.

Indeed. 2 Soldiers > 2 Militia.
Soldier is great with Familiar and Urchin. Pretty great with Torturer, Margrave, Cultist and Rabble, too.

By far the best Soldier combo is Scrying Pool. The payload is just ludicrous.

Minion works as well.

Wow. I somehow forgot about the two non-terminal attacks one is nearly guaranteed to spam. Shame on me.

Yeah, I just realized this in a game last night (against bot). I was really confused when I had $22 early on with like no Treasure, no +Coin token, and only a couple Goons.
