So i was thinking about getting MacArthur, but i was wondering if there is a better option as Infantry General of the alliance, what do you think?

There are some interesting special forces for Allies... Cossacks as one example. I think this special unit is almost created for MacArthur who already has an increased critical rate and second attack probability.

Does anyone have MacArthur? How good is his "Raider" skill on practice? I mean it is an excellent skill, but Infantry's basic attack is rather low. Is it really worth it? Because otherwise Slim seems to be quite a decent substitute and his price is 300 medals lower...

It's best utilized when attacking the troop your special was meant for like anti-tank attacking a tank, the damage will scale tremendously. Also I think % chance skills are best utilized when stacked with other. It's around a 42% chance that either 1 or both activate and allow for extra damage that turn. |

When he crits while attacking an enemy he is specialised against, the dmg scale up more than a normal critical hit. |

When he crits while attacking an enemy he is specialised against, the dmg scale up more than a normal critical hit. Assuming the base crit chance is 5%, then MacArthur's chance is almost 5 times higher than Slim. However, I think this will depend on how vulnerable are infantry units in hard campaigns. There's no point of deploying either of them if it only takes the enemy 1 or 2 turns to wipe out a quadruple formation unit. |

Rommel: that's a nice quad stack max NKVD infantry general you have there, it be a shame if someone were to trigger panzer leader 4 times |

If there's ever a unit thats scary all ya gotta do is bomb it then bring out Govorov on the pries or katyusha and/or Rokossovsky. I would only send in MacArthur when Rommel is down to one stack. |

Dealing with buff stacked heavy tanks is actually Far easier in the axis since Leeb with elefant can just casually one round it without breaking a sweat and even if Leeb fails to kill there is anti armor Blitzkrieg gooderian ready to let all hell break loose |
