20 Rounds for the event, ~15 is possible Can you explain, how Konev on Riga on turn 4? Based on this two pictures i'm curious with: 1. On pic 3, Riga's city health is about 3/4 full, and nobody from your unit near Riga. 2. Konev already at Riga, and none of your unit near Riga, so with which unit attacked it since none of it near Riga. Its impossible if Konev attack and move to Riga alone. No offense, just curious.. 😀

Can you post a few pictures of the Chinese version? If it is significantly smaller than having us compete for the same thing could be quite the disadvantage for rest-of-world players considering this challenge specifically amplifies the time it takes to capture “perimeter areas.” Here you go. Please tell me if you think there's anything unfair. The difference in rules for these two versions is the international version can deploy 2 extra generals but has to add 1 to the turn count. I'm not familiar with chinese version, but is this 1943? Not 1939? because i see Poland and European France

Yes it's 1939, but the map size remains the same for all eras. I see, it's kinda small for me, no Indonesia (Japanese area in 1943), No port in hongkong and shanghai (major problem for us global user). Agree journeykeen? I believe that you will beat it in 10 with this kind of map 😁

I believe that you will beat it in 10 with this kind of map 😁 Maybe not 10 but 12-13, I think. It is hard to tell without actually playing it. I do think the Chinese version has an advantage, though, because even adding a round is worth it because those Japanese ports are everything when there’s no A. The additional generals, for me, are, at most, the slightest advantage. Any marginal 2 generals will always be less effective, especially because I have no infantry general and only 1 navy (having Nimitz+Donitz would shed a round or two, but of course my lack of generals should not determine the difference). I think there should just be two different leaderboards because there is no objective way to equalize them (and it would also be quite easy to cheat), but of course that means there would be more prize medals Worth reading Erich von Manstein,

No offense, just curious.. 😀 The city health was cracked on round two by Rokko, but, because there was a unit there on round three, the city would have regained a small bit of health. On round 4 the unit left, and when Voronov captured Konigsburg he attacked Mannerheim with rocket arty, so the rocket spread did that extra damage to the city, freeing it up again for Konev.

Beat it by 1 round, so 19. As I just wrote to Mr. Rudi, I think I could shed another two by having another navy general rather than Arnold, and maybe another if I had a pure infantry general, not Zhukov; the navy general would be much more important. Buying institutes early on only gave me missiles on round 19, so, only being 2 earlier than my last run, I am not sure the money spent at the beginning even helps. Perhaps just donating it all would be better, maybe even to ROC so it can hold one of those pesky Japanese ports. Other than that I am not sure what else to change. I made a mistake around Berlin (again) and another in the Balkans, but neither of these even affect the total speed as Europe was finished by round 14. I can post all the screenshots if needed.

Voronov was too far away in near Warsaw which i believe he can travel and back with his 1 mobility star. but its okay, i believe you, and since you already submit another one with better run, i'm okay with that.

I can post all the screenshots if needed. you can save in a cloud storage, open hq, dismiss Arnold and buy another gen, play conquest, load back your old saved game. That's what i did when i needed to try another gen. I even used Graziani on my run 😄

I see what you are saying now; I did not look closely enough at which general was which. I just tested it, and the mobility checks-out 100% and you can test for yourself. The mech inf. gets Kiev rd1, moves west on 2, captures Warsaw on 3, and then can reach Konigsberg on 4. Riga was cracked by Rokko on rd2, yet the issue of how the city’s tiny bit of Heath after the unit was there on 3 is the understandable problem. My original thought was, as you pointed out, incorrect because Konigsberg was not a rocket. It would still be possible if a tank was 2 spots from there on round three because it could crack the city then move on to a rd4 screenshot position, but the rd3 screenshot shows that no unit was nearby. So my answer is this: I do not know The only plausible explanation that I can think of is if a British carrier hit it. I now feel obligated to post my 19rd run! Hell, maybe I need to do a video of the first few rounds.

I am on iOS 14.6 i don't know if iOS user cant save it in a cloud like android user 🤭
