My man really put Badoglio a whole rank above Leeb Curved him to pink. I didn’t consider end game capabilities of leeb. |

I bought Leeb first and I have had no regrets. Bagdolio, to be honest, hits like a wet noodle and can't even hit more than once without special forces. He is not worth his cost and should be skipped for more worth while gens like Kesselring, Guderian and de Gaulle.

They aren't much needed in ET games and I assume this one too. A naval/x hybrid might be enough, which is a major setback for them. I am talking about Donitz. |

HangryBird, my take on de Gaulle is similar to Gerd von Rundstedt. He is a very good, if not THE best support gen of all. His damage is decent for a gen that has no skills for a specific unit type and works well with a group of units. I have played him in Conquest mode and he doesn't decrease the morale on his own, the morale decreases once other units have hit it. Not only that but he is also (I believe) in 3/5 campaigns, which is equal to Monty. The only downside is his cost, which is pretty expensive. He definitly isn't a starter gen but once you have a decent set-up, he is pretty necessary for the end-game (being in 3/5 campaigns) and he can syneergise excellently with say Monty or Patton.

Yeah, also disagree about Leeb vs Badoglio. First, 3* vs 4* and important skill. Second, Economics is useless. Just absolute garbage. It should provide at least twice as much in order to be viable. For now, it's almost nothing. Moreover normally You can't afford keeping arty which is very important on the battlefield inside the city. And yes, he has 1* additional movement but if You plan to utilize Economics.. who cares? Would be OK with air gen, not a battlefield gen. Economics is pretty mediocre in campaigns and conquests but have you considered that economics is active 100% of the time in army group? An average army group run last around 25 turns in that time badoglio contributes 190 economy if you deploy him turn 1 which is not that hard condition to fulfill. Long story short he's a game changer in army group that makes grinding there alot easier. |

Remind me how much morale rumor does again? |

Remind me how much morale rumor does again? It isn't calculated exactly, bu if you see the difference of attacj between a unit at normal morale and one at purple morale. |

It reduces 5 at lvl2, we haven't a lvl1 version since there isn't any, lvl1 desperate reduces 5 morale as well, inspiration increases 5 morale every turn. That sounds a little mediocre to me. |

I think Rumour stacks with Desperation so it quickly descends from normal morale to a easily destructable unit. But as I have said, de Gaulle is at his best as a support unit. Him with Monty or even just say Leclerc can tear trhiugh armies. |
