Go for crowd tactics on Konev trust me, it is super useful on invasions and on campaigns and challenges. I personally think that getting Timoshenko for the crowd tactics + medal would be better cuz he moves extremely fast. |

You don't need infantry generals in this game, especially in UN missions, because AI targets weakest units first, so your Timoshenko won't last long. If u put him on Konev who is on rocket arty with no retaliation ability no one will target him and he will deal massive damage and support other units at the same time, and survive tot tell the tale of any mission. Jus keep few infantry units around your arty that AI can target them.

Timo is a tank general with Colonel rank,so i think he wont be targeted,he is the best support general in the game,Messe and Crerar are cheap options too. |

Friedrich “Fried Rice” Paulus, haha i am aware of that mission, even though on my very first try i used yamashita without replacement to clear it i remember playing on my friend's account without any infantry general, only with guderian, messe, leeb and konev. He upgraded konev and guderian(konev's raider to level 3), and asked me to help him clear the excercise in petropavlovsk, and his previous strategy was to keep landing in front of the bunkers, which failed. I got him some tech upgrades on infantry(asked him to farm and max out, which is manageable and pretty affordable) and now whenever konev on the stacked mechanized infantry landed on a mine, he got only 5-7 damage, and the last infantry upgrade(extra hp) absorbed all the fighter damage, and he cleared it rather easily. However, replacement works just as well as extra hp in helping to absorb fighter plane damage, so if your infantry tech tree is extremely low or you dont have enough resources replacement is indeed a better choice, but if you want to skim on medals then konev's raider and tech tree is useful

So now I need to get Rommel, I finished 20% off and after about 5 tries, I am hopeless to finish this. To finish this 40% it might require more metals for upgrading than buying Rommel with that 800 less :/.

Rommel is way cheaper even with 20% discount, or do you mean when I get Rokossovsky I will have a greater chance of finishing 40% on Rommel? Heck right now I have only one artillery general, and Rommel can also be one when it is needed, unlike Rokossovsky. |

Yes, but you the extra 20% medals saved if you buy rommel not fully discounted. 2. Don’t use rommel on artillery. Always use him on tanks. And by any circumstances, do not build rommel to be a tank artillery hybrid. I tried that and it was disgusting. You can probably consider getting leeb eventually for the modern war campaign. Point is to keep trying to get the -20%, if you can’t, I would consider rokossovsky. Really you will need all 3 to beat the game. Really, tank generals are going to be a must have for you to finish modern war. |

HAHAHAHA laughing my organs out right now, I somehow manage to get 40% off today (it was a close one), Guardian and Konev spam rumour on Monti and Alexander to the point of nonsense. Anyways is Rommel REALLY that bad at artillery? And what are the two recommended skills for Rommel? One last question, is Vatutin better than Rommel (I think not but ...)? |

Anyways is Rommel REALLY that bad at artillery? And what are the two recommended skills for Rommel? One last question, is Vatutin better than Rommel (I think not but ...)? I would give rommel panzer leader and rumor, you can use vatutin for your iron cross + armored assualt build. Rommel is not bad on artillery. But don’t get another skill such as machinist plain fighting or ... just to benefit his artillery side. What I did was max out his crossfire and get machinist, I really expected him to be op but really he was no much better than arnold and I poured 6000 medals into him. I made lots of wc4 mistakes, this one was one of the worst. Rommel is better than Vatutin. But I seeing as you can’t fit both armored assualt and rumor on vatutin, I would build your team around vatutin. You don’t have to sell Bock either if you like him, heck anyone on a super heavy is badass take a look at Bagryam. Just don’t pour too many medals into him. Nice job on the 40%. Now since you didn’t give into your urges, you might have saved yourself like 600 medals. |
