This one's for my boi @dotcom
Tech: Maxed (tanks, infantry), 80% (artillery, navy), 50% (nukes).
Generals used: Guderian (double heavy built turn 2), Rommel (double heavy built turn 4), Graziani (starting double medium), Konev (starting double rocket artillery), Leeb (double rocket artillery built turn 8), Donitz (starting double cruiser), Nimitz (triple sub built turn 5)
This was way overkill lol. You can pass this without Leeb, Graziani, and either Donitz or Nimitz.
Turns 1-10: Build the above units and move everyone through Neutral Italy and Yugoslavia to the Balkans so you can avoid all those Soviet arty generals + their spam. Have Donitz steal the southern French port and the Italian port. Build a tech centre so you can get to level 7 ASAP.
Save Greece and Turkey by destroying the Balkan spam. As long as one of your tank generals and one of your arty generals survive you should be fine, so just throw them at the enemy. Endgame Bulgaria, the SINGLE MOST ANNOYING COUNTRY IN ALL CONQUESTS. Move your navy to Egypt and start working on it. Also don't paratroop Sofia. Move a general there, even if it means he's gonna take some nasty damage.
Your double medium tank is gonna... tank through Africa. Steal Nigeria from the Soviets, then move east so you can weaken Somalia. Your tank's gonna die, but it will be worth the sacrifice. I think.
Bulgaria dead. Work on Romania and Croatia now.
Side note: Ankara was badly defended so I stole it via paratroopers.
Now Mike Wazowski (Rokossovsky) comes to die. Confuse him and endgame him before going for Donetsk. Defend Ankara and keep bombarding Egypt. Once Alexandria's dead paratroop it.
Now the Balkans are dead. Cut off the Soviets from behind by going for annoying Poland. Send one tank general and one arty general there. After getting Poland, they'll capture Moscow and do nothing for the rest of the playthrough. Send paratroopers to Stanistan so you can probe their defences and hopefully steal a city.
Once you capture Kiev, it's expansion time. Paratroop like crazy so you can destroy Siberia. After endgaming Egypt, send your navy to the Philippines (and Somalia if you didn't get it) and kill some cruisers. They'll be irrelevant for the rest of the conquest. Move your tank generals directly east so they can help you capture cities. Everything that you don't spend on paratroopers send to the US so they can steal back Japan and save you 2 turns.
Turn 25: We're at the gates of China now. So is the US.
Turn 30: Missiles galore
Aaand... victory.
