Training Troops

Captain General / Castellan
The rate at which you train your troops is determined by your current Captain General, or in his absence, your Castellan. Your Captain General/Castellan is granted experience for every unit you train, and you will also gain influence.

However, should you dismiss units, you will recover some resources, but lose some influence.

Specs
Infantry

Laborers +2 experience +1 influence

Rookies +3 experience +1 influence

Scouts +1 experience +1 influence

Pikemen +1 experience +1 influence

Swordmen +13 experience +1 influence

Archers +14 experience +2 influence

As general rule of thumb, the population required to train each unit is equal to the influence gained when trained. (IdlePopulationUsed = InfluenceGained) :D
