That mission is pretty easy, you don't even need navy generals and technology. I did it with Guderian, Konev, Leeb And Vatutin, so 0 navy stars, and barely 1939 technology. Leeb, Guderian And Konev had lv2 Rumour tho. I used all 3 super carriers, all 12 3 stacked subs and a couple of double stacked cruisers. I put Guderian on a carrier, Konev And Leeb on subs and Vatutin on a cruiser. First, subs swarm the closest super battleship general. Cruisers and carriers support them by attacking destroyers nearby. After the destroyers are gone, move your cruisers to attack Yamamoto. Put a sub into the closest port after taking out the general in the SBB. By this time, the lower port should be empty, so just move a sub there. Yamamoto should be easy to take out with the combined attacks of your cruisers and carriers. One good thing is to use the HP pool of your carriers. They don't loose attack power with health, so they can be uaed to tank Yamamoto's air bombing or as a meatshield vs the destroyers harrasing your subs btw i tried that but nimitz got surrounded when i was focusing on yamamoto and he died... rip well after playing a few more conquests for resource grinding ill try again but what should i do differently to prevent nimitz's death?

When you capture the 1st port where you spawn,Nagumo will come out and attack that ship,by that moment,your guderian should be close,and a destroyer must come from the south,he usually spawns another sub,use your 4 air carriers and S.AC to attack him,its more about brute force rather than strategy,for landing,destroy the coast artillery,and kill Teraguchi with your Super Air Carriers,and also bomb the Rocket artillery there,use atleast 3 S.Heavy tanks and dont set a general until Yamamoto gets sunked or he will focus on that unit. Note: dont capture the port too early,still help Halsey to take it,he gets destroyed and Nagumo wont come out for a reason (even if Halsey survives),set your Tanks for landing and try to avoid mines,2 destroyers shall be put on the south and send to help Nimitz when you see all his fleet sunk,leave 1 destroyer as bait and send the other to help guderian take the port,gold air defence will be a bless on this mission,so does that +100% against Cruiser for subs,also set all your generals that have rumor on subs. tanks???!! are we talking abt the same nimitz 40% mission haha i remember we could only use navy unit Yep,on the last mission you have to land on the philippines,thats why i said tanks.

ao hey guys, I earn 5000 metals for the event, and I am wondering what I should do with it. Here are some choices:
1. get Kuznetsov 2. upgrade the heck out of generals I have (please tell me what 2 extra skill Konev and Guderian needs) 3. get Rommel 4. get Rokossovsky 5. get Runstedt 6. crush bock with all 5000 metals (maybe he will survive) 7. for some reason my choice is not good enough and you want to make other choices

Rundstendt is not really necessary. You can shove replacement on konev once that pesky minefield mission comes up. i would upgrade the rumor on guderian and konev than get Rommel. But kuznetsov is a cheap buy. 2,3,4, seem like the best choices. If you can wait a bit and get nimitz -40% I suggest doing that

If you can wait a bit and get nimitz -40% I suggest doing that well i still need to do, 40% rommel and 20 and 40% for nimitz. just to recap, you suggested that i will get : Guderian: rumor (armored assult?) (plain fighting?) Konev: rumor, replacment? (plain fighting?) those in bracket is the skills that i am not sure about and do you have other generals that you like and might be useful? and between Rommel and Rokossovsy which do you perfer?

Yes Rommel should be your general and so does Nimitz. I set Rumor and explosives on Guderian and Konev,for easy breaching on Modern War missions/conquests. My lineup is Vatutin,Konev,Guderian,Rommel,Nimitz,Leeb,thanks for those medals most of them have lvl 4 rumor (exept vatutin,he has Armored Assault),and Explosives lvl 3,nimitz has sailor instead.

Explosives is a good one definitely. Cover is also a nice one that will protect guderian either in missions or conquest. The main challenge is modern war missions so upgrade them so that they are the most effective in that scenario.

I finished the entire game and for campaigns is essential to have 4 tank generals, 2 arty, and 2 naval. 3 land generals must have rumor. Rooster is up to you

NO NO NO do not shove replacement on konev... believe me just upgrade your infantry tech to the fullest and you can easily land on the mines in petropavlovsk taking 5 to 7 damage and still survive. Just upgrade raider on konev so that he can one shot the cities.

Just upgrade raider on konev so that he can one shot the cities. There is this pesky mission where you have to have an infantry general with replacement. It’s cheaper to buy Konev for that purpose, than to buy a general such as Zhu De or Tito. Then once you beat it, you can remove replacement off of konev and give him another skill. Really if you give infantry leader to konev, he can be a pretty op hybrid of artillery and infantry.

Thank goodness I haven't given anything to Konev and Guardian yet (other the lv 2 rumour). So, as Friedrich “Fried Rice” Paulus, Harry Lillis "Bing" Crosby Jr, has said there is this one annoying mission that you have to clear a BOCK (censored) ton of mines. So you guys say that I should get? 1. Replacement 2. Inf. Leader 3. Raider and now the real question begins, I don't care about that mission really. but the real question is what should I get Inf. Leader or Raider. Which one is more useful?

I would wait till you come across that mission and then give him like lvl 2-3 replacement, because if you don’t beat that mission you will not be able to proceed and get future medals from those types of missions, which is a really big hit seeing as how you get buildings such as Technology Center and Field Hospital from them. I don’t think tito can do this mission, but I wouldn’t risk it. When chosing konev’s last skill, infantry leader is a good choice as you won’t have to purchase an infantry general in the future. You can also chose skills such as explosives or mechanist (artillery doesn’t have that much hp, so earning up to 19 hp per turn will help out a lot in any situation). Get explosives if you are confident that you can protect konev without mechanist.

Go for crowd tactics on Konev trust me, it is super useful on invasions and on campaigns and challenges.
