Generals - Better to pick named characters or generic in matches play?

[darranh1]

As a nighthaunt player I have Kurdoss and Reikenor and KoS on steed. I’m a wondering if making KoS my General for ruler of spirit hosts which returns D3 (spirit hosts) to the unit at no cost as Reikenor and Kurdoss as my general cant use any command traits. Seems usually the general is given to the most powerful hero, however I cannot see any advantage on making Reikenor or Kurdoss my general? Am I missing anything?

The only benefit is if to use the command abilities you have on the named heroes require they are the general. Otherwise it’s best to pick whoever you want if you have room for a generic to have the Command traits and if needed the artifact on the general.
