Hello, this is the first time in a long time that im requesting a guide, feels funny  Anyways, seems that this mission seems easy for ya'll to beat since there is no guide for it nor have any concerns been raised over it. However, even with nearly maxed campaign 5 tech and solid generals (maxed hotzendorf and stonewall), this mission seems rather tough. No matter where I go, all my generals are either wiped out or hanging on by 40 hp, and all 3 objective cities have enemy reinforcements. I remember once where I was left with only one city, and no more enemy troops. Somehow, rng denied me a double attack with Sheridan and McClellan on tanks and Hotzendorf on starting artillery, and even with blast and air strike, I could not activate my tanks to have a second turn and take the city. That was the luckiest attempt I had, as from then on my generals all died before being able to capture any city. Is this a strategy problem, or insufficient general upgrades? Pretty much stuck here without much resources to upgrade generals from achievements/conquests and I hope its the latter so that it would be easier to troubleshoot  |

All generals straight mid
After mid is secured, infantry and artillery left
Tank and armoured car and a militia right
When u take a city on left or right enemy starts to spam reinforcements from nowhere. So take them simultaneously if possible

Place your best generals on their corresponding units. Use the tanks and artillery to destroy the general. Once that's done, it will demoralize the enemy allowing you to attack. If you take the city on the left, the enemy will get reinforcements right next to the city so beware. The enemy also get reinforcements on turn 10 on the city to the top left. You can skip the bottom city if you want. Go for the city on the top left but as previously stated, they will get reinforcements. Artillery will be extremely helpful because of all the heavy armored units. Your Canadian allies should be able to secure their flank on their own and then they'll attack up north. Secure the top left city and heal your units in the temple if needed. Push eastward (when the enemy generals are killed, their units get a moral decrease) until you arrive at the final city. They should be weakened cause of your allies. Take it and you've won.

thank you! So now there are two plausible strategies, namely
1. All out push to take the middle city, then working on both cities left and right
2. Feint charge to middle, then pushing to the left city before going eastward

If you have cleared that mission, you can farm it for medpacks. |

It’s harder with tech. On a fresh account the enemy stats are same as you On a maxed tech account the enemy has much higher stats than you |
