Sorry for a very, very long comment, but there is a lot of information here.

Recently, there have been some changes in TKR when it comes to building very good rally join marches, especially when it comes to alts or even for a F2P player. I have switched all of my alts to use these new marches, even to the point of dropping all of my Baibars (which I had worked hard to get), since that general is no longer required. These marches are easy to get, and even in an alt, I have easily put together 5 marches for my alts under k35 and 6 on the one at k36. I did start out with almost all of the Greene’s required, and had to only add a few. The other generals (the leads) were built from the ground up, and this was accomplished fairly quickly.

What I use now on all alts (and even my main account when i am monster grinding) is one of these 2 marches. Both use a purple (!yes a purple!) leading general (Sandada or Sparticus), which has been enhanced to 8* level. Enhancing purple generals takes ONLY fragments, and no blood of ares are required. So getting 8* only requires perfect dismissal of generals to get fragments.

Comparing these marches, to Baibars/Greene combo, you will get extra 3% double drop rate (DDR), and extra -10% stamina reduction. The DDR of sanada is 10% (at 3rd star) and 18% for the luck book, while the DDR for Baibars is 25% (book can not be used), so Sandada+Greene is 28% DDR (same as Theodora+Greene).

the gear for these marches was listed in the text of the page, and will not be repeated here.

March 1:
Main — Sanada with 8 stars
2nd — Nathan Greene.
The skill books are the 2 speeds and luck.
Sanada can be enhanced further. Pushing skill 2 gives extra 40% march speed to monsters. Runes are very precious but if not being used in other places, they do work great here.
Notes, Sanada fragments can be obtained from relic cracking, so doing that can reduce the number of generals which need to be perfectly dismissed to get fragments. Sanada is also twice the gold cost to buy from tavern (as opposed to Sparticus) at 20m gold, vs 10m for Spart.

March 2:
Main — Sparticus 8 stars
2nd — Greene.
Here, only the march speed skill book and luck book can be used. Monster march speed book does not work.

Building 8* purples does require gems and gold (for buying the extra generals, cracking them into fragments, and for re-spins in the tavern), but the amount of gems/gold should be easy to by an alt in today’s Evony since these resources have loosened up quite a bit.
