My personal favorite Allies Infantry General. Also the most defensive. He takes a specific playstyle to use however, one where you park him in a city to fight. That city should hopefully never fall however once he is inside  "Most defensive allied general" isn't really a great title, the dudes got 6+ damage on cities I meant defensive as in the one general I would want holding onto a city if that makes sense? Burma Campaign comes to mind when you can just park him early on Mandalay. What would you title a general like that? "Best City General"? |

What would you title a general like that? "Best City General"? Slim would be much better I disagree (how many times is it now?). Crowd Tactics and Street Fighting are extremely Useful. Even Ace Forces is only 80% useless because recruiting this much drives down rank. |

Okay so bayonet charge & street fighting cancel out since they both 6+ Crowd tactics alright but reserve is gonna keep your numbers up Idk about street fighting being "extremely" useful |

zink , Bayonet Charge don't work on Counterattack. Oh that clearly makes a huge difference! Also I was wrong bout the 6+ damage fer street shootouts, its 5 but again not that big a deal |

Infantry are so cheap. Having +10 for Crowd Tactics is incredible. Like REALLY incredible. Especially since there are so many Allied missions where holding a city is critical for the success of your mission. Also, yes Ace Forces is really best and only applicable for infantry because recruiting drives down rank but I would have preferred 5 other skills before Ace Forces. |

Alright I guess we have different playstyles since I've never really "held" a city I've always just gone beyond and smashed through the enemy |

But also, to your point, if I had to play the Axis missions with Allied Generals, I would have gotten MacArthur and Slim so there you go. I just wanted to play the Allies differently from the Axis and I preferred the style of play on the Allies side more |

Okay, got Vasilevsky because I needed another Allied infantry and he also gave me enough medals to get the Tank medal (only need navy now!). He is amazing. Fast, powerful (He can oneshot an Armored Car when it is Max Rank when Vasilevsky has an NKVD, something MacArthur Can't), his Ace Forces is Useful on an infantry, Crowd Tactics is an OP skill, and Street Fighting is good on infantry. In Addition, he is also good on Tanks, and Although he lacks Infantry Leader  , he is still very powerful. Dang, I don't know why I didn't get him earlier. He also fights very well with MacArthur on a Cossack. He lacks in survivability, so keep him near a city, though. Ace Forces can provide some survivability, though. |
