I have opened Battle of Cuba, which I believe is the final Exercise/Battle in Domination mode. Attaching a few pics to give you an idea of how hard this is. In addition to having purple rank, enemy generals are all promoted to Marshal or General (205 or 190 percent health), all have five abilities, boosted base stats and are wearing three medals. .org/image/2mhmd31wnv/]  [/url] .org/image/3p4k9t08cb/]  [/url] .org/image/6rd7p6wxkr/]  [/url] .org/image/18v391nf6j/]  [/url] |

Victory in 22 turns. The bad part is that now I really don’t have anything more to accomplish until modern warfare is released. I have beaten all scenarios on regular and hard mode, all conquests and all exercises/battles. Just have to go back and do stuff without generals now. .org/image/16x5rvb97v/]  [/url] |

I see that EE is never exaggerating : basically, you can’t beat these missions if you don’t spend real money for medals and generals...
Anyway you are a beast, soonerjbd ! Crazy guy.

EW5: The ONLY ET game where farming is easy, 400 medals per day at full task refresh & completion... but the cost for skill upgrades, equipment, new gens, etc. is gonna annoy you  |

Rest of the equipment was received as a rewards for conquests/campaigns/missions' bonus tasks stoic and Singlemalt completed EW5 without IAP generals. Don't know whether they used purchased gold gear or not. So anyway it is possible. It takes time and strategy, but that's why we like ET games  |

A Purple Rank ? It's not that rank who no one have ? and for this, you need to do the Modern War ?

A Purple Rank ? It's not that rank who no one have ? and for this, you need to do the Modern War ? Generals start with blue banners over their names. You can upgrade to green for $10k, I believe. When you open Cold War, you can upgrade to red for $50k. Purple, I’m assuming, opens with modern war and will cost a fortune. Each one gives you additional bonus health. |

These are intended to be end game missions. They come after you’ve unlocked the last Landmark Building with Battle of the Philippines. All the battles to unlock buildings are doable with far less tech and generals. |

I like WC4, but to be honest so far I think that EW5 was a more difficult game. I completed first WTO/NATO missions today with 2 and 3 stars respectively. It was absolutely unthinkable in EW5 to make such progress in a couple of weeks. I hardly use subtle strategies because my generals don't have upgraded skills yet. I haven't upgraded their ranks as well. My technology tree is unimpressive. And yet I think it will be possible to unlock Great Wall without any significant improvements. So I'm glad there will be insane battles in Domination mode... |

I already know for the ranks I finished all missions & i'm in Black Sea Exercise You are at the spot where they start getting really hard. I think you get three more after Black Sea and then Battle of Korea. Then you have Panama Canal, Hudson Bay, Gibraltar, Aegean Sea and finally Battle of Cuba. It feels like a ratchet up in difficulty after each battle, then a set of exercises and another battle, then a little tougher. I think Hudson Bay was probably the toughest. The only land units you get are infantry, and there are no factories anywhere on the board. The irony is that carriers kinda stink for most of the game, but they are a godsend in Hudson Bay and Battle of Cuba. Since you are the U.S. in both of those, you get supercarriers. A couple of air generals in those supercarriers are really helpful. They can take down coastal artillery, wear down city fortifications and even do decent damage to land units that don’t have air defense. |
