Manstein is better to start out, but in 1980... Here's how I see it: Manstein's advantages- Starts as a marshal so medals are saved. Damage is broke, especially with hero medal Faster than the speed of light Cons- IAP No open slots has a crappy skill(TOI) One additional movement star doesn't do much. In addition, yeah he is cheaper than Guderian medal-wise, because he is an IAP. He is cheaper than Messe. |

By saving medals I meant you don't have to upgrade his rank for survivability as you would with Guderian. |

manstein would be tied or under Guderian because he does an insane amount of damage, which mostly makes up for his lack of rumor, but doesn't make up for it completely(when fighting generals with high hp) so i would have to say guderian is the winner for this one. In campaign he is trailing a Guderian because of rumor. In conquest he lags because of explosives. I have to agree. I tried him in a mod with tank medals on him and my ranking of him places him at #2 behind Guderian. Still a good replacement for my Rokossovsky though, lol. |

in all the campaingns before 1980 manstein is the guy you would put on your super tank, not guderian. in 1980 however, it's a different story

I know that Guderian is the best, but I personally admire Rommel the most IRL. That probably bleeds into my personal ranking.

Patton- cause he outlasted the Panzerlied buffed Wehrmacht. That's like the equivalent of Warhammer DOW3 Ork's with the waaaaagh banner activated.
