I'm looking at 3 possible generals...

Rith, the Awakener - R/W/G token generators
Rhys, the Redeemed - mainly elf and saproling token generators
Wort, the Raidmother - Red and Green Sorceries/Instants and mostly token generators...


Any suggestions on cards to use?
Any more suggestions on what generals that could be used?

Ulasht! I actually just posted my decklist. Ulasht is positively insane. I've spun more heads with this sleeper general's bag of tricks than any other deck. It's my #2 guy behind Shirei, but whoah does it ever rock. Piloting it's many synergies is an exciting endeavor too. So so many nasty tricks...

Check out my deck here:

Yeah, red tech is just too sick to pass up in token builds. I personally don't run that card, but it is on my list of things to consider... I just don't feel it does enough for my deck right now, and I've been very successful with what I've got.

Rith... I feel relies too much on the red zone. The red zone is not easy to build around Hazezon Tamar is a better token general for the colors.

Rhys can be a very powerful token general if you put enough stock into doubling effects and defense. He's also really easy to recast when he gets KO'd

Wort... just no. Wort is not a token general like I'm guessing you think she is. Her ability lends itself to green ramp and red banefire/comet storm spells. She's really tough in duels, but gets a little stagnant in multiplayer, and a bit too easy to disrupt in most multiplayer tables.

Outside of pure token and aside from my favorite (ulasht) you should also consider black. Tokens are a potent resource for black. Endrek Sahr, Master Breeder is a pretty neat general. As is Nath of the Gilt-Leaf... which I greatly prefer as an elf token generator to Rhys... but that's just me. I like a bit of disruption on my general. ^_^

 I don't think you need to consider rith as the three colors become more of a pain then there worth in my opinion.  as for rhys the low cost is nice but for edh its all about the abilities and while the doubling ability is nice it requires tokens to be in the field and frankly red and green has faster token generation then white. so i would go those colors.  and I have to agree with panda ulasht can be a beast, but so can the wort. doubling your spells through conspire can be huge your dragon fodder puts out 4 tokens, your giant growth gives +6/+6, your beacon does 10 damage or puts out tokens 2 times the number of forests you control depending on which one.  In a token deck deck you should be able to conspire easily so wort shouldn't be taken out of the running.

whatever colors you choose to run if green is one of them then parallel evolution is a must.

Endrek Sahr works well with stuff like Artificial Evolution.

Endrek does not work with artifical evolution since it changes all instances you can change it so elf tokens come out but then he is saced when there are 7 or more elves out. You need conspirecy so he puts out thrull tokens but there are no thrulls on the field
