one quest need me to have 20 soldier

how ?


build 4-5 armories and the number of soldier are about 10-12

Armories let you recruit generals; in turn, you can build one guard station for each general you have, and guard stations employ up to 3 soldiers. If you have the Junta DLC, you can also build bunkers, which employ up to 5 (6?) soldiers without the need for generals, but those soldiers will fight less effectively as the general-led ones.

A bunker will get 6. A soldier needs to be a highschool or military academy graduate, unless Conscription Edict is ON. Getting Army Bases is good also, keeps them happy. One should always try to get one Army Base and put on the Military Modernization Edict, that will make it certain that they will not try a coup.

If you have many military buildings, and they are leeching your work force and money, you can fire them by closing the slots, then opening again when you think you need more.

That won't work during a coup/rebel attack though. Only the soldiers and SWAT that were already employed at the start of the attack will respond to the crisis. Opening the slots too late won't add to their number.

SWAT aren't even counted as military, but they work both as soldiers and as police.

It is a good idea to always have the Generals, Soldiers, SWAT, Firemen and the Police buildings/training at the Special Forces / High Alert mode.

Conscription is not really recommended unless it is useful in a mission. Military Modernization is a must.

All the Ministers should also have at least one of their abilities at the highest level, was it "Excellent"(?), so as to get random bonuses. If the Ministers have bad qualities, they can screw up and cause negative events.
