I have Guderian and Konev, both unupgraded. I am in the cold war campaigns (One map completed). I have 2925 medals. I have Rommel at 20 percent discount and Nimitz at 40 percent.
Whom should I buy next?
Rommel with 20 percent or Nimitz? Is Nimitz useful or Rommel can help more? I don't think I can complete 40bpercent mission of Rommel any time soon. Please help me

Please help me Upgrade your Gen's rumor (lvl.3) and tech (esp. tank) and then try 40% with this guide european-war-4.boards.net/post/264366Rommel should be prioritize first, he will be more useful than Nimitz. You need at least 3 gen (2 tank 1 arty or 1 tank 2 arty) before you buy your navy gen (i have Messe, Guderian, Leeb, Konev, before i buy Nimitz). For Navy gen, if you lack of medal you can buy Kuznetsov for cheaper option then switch to Nimitz or Dönitz later when you have enough medal. |

Upgrade Guderian and Konev and give them Rumor, you can get Rommel with those two upgraded.
Nimitz is good but might not be good enough depending on your purpose. If all you need is someone to clear the coastline then go for Nimitz. If you want to win the naval invasions comfortably then saving up for Donitz will pay off better.

Please help me Buy MacArthur, and give him PF/Crowd Tactics and Rumor, he is a ridiculously OP Support gen that makes Timo look like crabapples. |

Another fancy analysis not backed up with the stats. lan, Don't waste your precious medal with buying any infantry gen before you complete your ideal roster (3 Tanks, 2 Arty, 1 Navy). |

As the third general? |

What on earth are you talking about? MacArthur? As the third general? I dont know what's his intention by giving that advice. Maybe he's just trolling, maybe he wants to misguide newer player so they don't get good progress in this game. Stubbornly "tryin to be different" without any make sense analysis. Poor newer player that took his advice. |

Poor newer player that took his advice. Infantry has worked the best for me in ET games, period. I finished WC4 (now on an only Grazi run) with Guderian as the hammer, Konev as the sickle, MacArthur as Support, Yama as the knife, and Rundstedt for a companion to Guderian. |

Upgrade your tech then get Rommel 40% disc For that I needed super high tech, along with Guderian, Konev, and Graziani. Alexander should not be that powerful! |

Props to you for 3 starring every UN hard mission with that lineup, but for most players that is not good advice. |

Props to you for 3 starring every UN hard mission with that lineup, but for most players that is not good advice. I am just a bit biased, but I just think Infantry should be the most important unit in ET games, because they were the main unit IRL. I fit the game around my presuppositions, not vice versa... So my strategy may be suboptimal, but I think it works great for me. |

If individuals want to play thematically, then they may say so. Advocating for infantry generals when someone wants “help with next general,” thereby asking for the optimal path, is simply unhelpful. I seriously doubt the game can even be completed with your lineup. |
