I roughly know where to go, hit Eisenhower’s position, simultaneously hit mountains and El Guerrera, try and destroy Pound as quickly as possible, use reinforcements from Sicily to hit Alexander whilst the rest of the force goes all the way round. But there’s just so many enemies and not enough troops. Rommel keeps going into the sea to die, and it’s pointless! I haven't cleared this level, but I played (and failed) quite a few times. My advice would be to not divide your forces. In my first play, I divided my forces and the South going force got wrecked by Patton. Keep your army in one place and attack Eisenhower, then the southwestern city, El Guettar and then the remaining targets. It worked fine for me in a sense that neither of my generals died in that way, but I ran out of time. Napoleon, what are your Gens? I perfect cleared this one first try with Rommel, Guderian, Yamashita, Leeb, Ozawa and Messe. I sent my main force at Eisenhower and a small force of an Armoured Car+a little infantry to take El Guettar. I ignored Patton and was able to sneak into El Guettar because the defenders left an opening. Then, my main force with Leeb on an elefant came in and killed off patton and then I just drove south and took all the objectives. I killed Pound wayyy too late and the reinforcements were not a significant factor (the panther got off like 2 attacks).

A helpful thing I found was that if you provoke Leclerc (the general guarding the bottom left, not quite sure if it's Leclerc but it's french) to attack, he will abandon the bottom left city and move north. You can take advantage of this by sending a tank to kill the 3-stack infantry he leaves behind and take the city. You have to do this decently fast though, because he will get to the middle left city in ~5 turns.

I think I will clear this soon, courtesy our competition

Then, you can strengthen your allied team.

Yeah I'm doing that. But 1941 Eastern front first because I've been playing mods recently and I wasn't motivated to complete that theater (Just 2 more perfect clears to go)

I did it with Guderian+Leeb+Monty and it was honestly pretty easy. I haven't been able to play this weekend (and the next few) because I am quite busy.
