Is Arthur Wellesley a strong general in Evony?

Arthur Wellesley boasts an impressive kit tailored for Ranged Troops, offering great versatility. His abilities make him equally effective as a Ranged Attack General or a Ranged Defense General. This flexibility stems from his Special Skill, Marshall in Eight Nations, which boosts ranged troop attack by 40% and increases their defense and HP by 25%. While his kit includes some buffs for Siege Machines, these are relatively lackluster, and there are far superior General choices for that troop type.
