The premium generals are indeed very strong, besides them, I believe there is only one other general with 5 medals. But without buying generals it is definitely possible to progress quite far. But it is a tedious proces. For me, it feels like generals are now optional in army groups, thus only effective in campaigns. The key to succes is spending your money well. Do not spend your medals on cheap short-term generals. But instead, think ahead, purchase generals worthy in the long run. That is what my intentions were with this guide. Nagumo and Dowding are the only normal generals with 5 in any stat for some reason. Yeah and I do not understand either of those decisions. Dowding was in command of the fighters during the Battle of Britain, after this he was removed from command entirely against his wishes. Though he is credited with winning the Battle of Britain, I do not believe that he has earned the right to be one of the two generals to have 6 medals. Especially since he only served in that battle during WW2. There are many more generals who accomplished a lot more. Nagumo was a battleship commander before WW2, but was appointed in command of the “first carrier battle group”. He was the one responsible for the air attacks during more than half a dozen air raids and naval battles. Although many doubted him, he proved himself to be an expert in combining air and naval power. If anything, in this WW2 game, he should be an air general, not a naval general. |

I was looking at the 3 premium generals and sadly I get the feeling that this game might be P2W This game is very doable without paying a single penny it's just medal management can be challenging for novice players since it's pretty unforgiving Wrong. Nothing is doable unless you pay $1.00 to buy the game.  On a serious note, yeah, it is very unforgiving for mismanaging the resources. This is exactly the time that we need to share whatever we know the most. |

It is understandable that you fear that this game is going to be p2w but gog2 was 4 years ago I'm confident that easytech has changed and that gog3 is far better designed than gog2 |

It is understandable that you fear that this game is going to be p2w but gog2 was 4 years ago I'm confident that easytech has changed and that gog3 is far better designed than gog2 I think it is the most p2w honestly. By locking certain generals to campaigns (including the IAP's, who only ever are 2 to a mode which begets the purchase of all 3) it encourages the player to "pay to progress" unless you strategize around the constraint. |

You need to balance how you spend your medals on either side of the campaign. Why is that P2W? The game gives you enough to reasonably fill out your roster imo. |

You can reach 4th campaign with only Nimitz apparently, so I wouldn't say it's p2w. You get lots of capable generals from playing (chuikov, messe, bock, model, timoshenko, ozawa, arnold and so on |

As a hardcore pay player (I once bought Zeus in GoG2) and hard-working farmer (I once have full stars dream team in EW4 where emblems and slots were bought but medals were farmed), I think GoG3 isn't a p2w game. You can get medals freely by farming with right way (I get about 1k5 medals per day and I only use 1 IAP Manstein, w/o him I still can get about 1k medals easily - A huge number of medals which only lesser than GoG and EW4 when you farm, and even when you just start the game, getting about 400 - 600 medals per day is possible w/o buying any general). It's not like GoG2 or EW5 in which you can't earn medals easily when you stuck in your process, or WC3 in which very limited medals come from wonder and you have to spend a ton of medals for a general (3k for Guderian or Patton and more than 10k for no eye gens). The ET games become more friendly to Free player when they was hit by the fail of GoG2 which is the most P2W game of ET IMO. |

You could progress pretty far without spending a dime, but late game was impossible without premium units. This time around Premium generals actually are the strongest units from what I can tell at least, also for some reason game won't save my progress, annoying, since I dislike the google play games platform and don't use it, so I can't save cloud games either. There is one 5 star gen for each stat, excluding mobility. Inf - Eisenhower (Eisey as I call him), Tank - Manstein, Art - Zhukov, Navy - Nagumo, Air - Dowding. |
