In today's show, I want to present you the (active) Army Cache artifact, which I regrettably got from a raffle.



It gives you armies for free - but the amount is so laughably small that it is not worth using it. There is a popup, but it closed before I could make a screenshot. Probably because it was embarrassed itself.

But I noted the Army cache amounts before and after the use, so I can tell you:
* Army production 14k/s
* Total armies from caches (before): 432.3958M
* Total armies from caches (after): 436.5041M
* Total armies from that cache artifact - yes you won't believe it - is 4.1083M armies!!!

Indeed, it's a useless artifact. At Poor level, it's 10% of the size of the army component of a normal FC power - which we all know is uselessly small. Could even go so far to say that most of the time, not worth using w/o a SAC first activated, and really only approaches true usefulness when you have 2-3 SACs going and drop a SP FC.

Even the 500% FC at end of CW seasons is useless, so nevermind 10%. Leg gets you 320%, Insane 640% ... still in the ballpark of the useless 500% FC.

So same idea, the Insane version could be mildly useful if you dropped a few SACs first - but you'll probably still end up being disappointed.

I have to wonder how it would preform on the levels unlocked after super assentation where cashes are super important. I can beat hexed earth 100% from cashes, and there are only like 5 of them in the whole level. Depending on how it's implemented it could be more useful than the inspire mercenaries artifact.

The active cache artifacts don't synergize with any caches in the level. For that you would need the passive cache artifacts, rather.

That would be the army cache *boost* that Tulsi is talking about, if I am able to understand what they are saying correctly.
That gives you 8% at rare (with my rare ACacheB), which is quite good.

But otto is talking about the Army Cache artifact, which is almost more useless than FB.
