Nobody is right here! Everyone knows the truely best general is burnside! Just look at his magnificent sideburns! Nope. Garibaldi's beard is better. And if you support Burnside, you support the NRA. *gasp*! And the mass shootings in schools |

Gerd von Rundstedt, as you can see, Burnside's beard is clearly better than Garibaldi, who on a good day looks like Gimli the dwarf.

Dwarves, however, have mastered the beard. |

Dwarves, however, have mastered the beard. Enough with the LOTR talk. I belive that Burnside is far superior to the others due to his magnificent sideburns, which puts Garibaldi's beard to shame. Anyone can grow Garibaldi's beard. Burnside's beard is a mark of achivement. |

I got the most positive impression from Macmahon, from what little I have played.

I have petain so imo boroevic Boroevic is pretty good second general, but really needs 15 medals to switch his two green skills to assault and intercept. Worth it tho, the damage output and agility on heavy machine gun is phenomenal. |

If you are buying IAP ,then Petain is most recommended.

I you are buying IAP ,then Petain is most recommended. Petain seems made to devour tanks, cause along with additional damage to cavalry from intercept, alert should also be able to reduce damage from artillery-type weapons, that should include artillery, navy (maybe even tanks)? Tank only ignores wires, so Petain can fight in a bunker, (further reducing tank damage cause tanks use artillery?). Can anybody prove this or something? |

Main reason for buying him is +2 General slot. |

Fighting armoured vehicles with infantry has always not always resulted in positive experiences for me. I think intercept is less useful in ew6 1914, as the machine gun boost on armoured cars is very strong. Tanks vs Infantry on the other hand is quite doable, but I always preferred to try and conserve my Inf generals' health so that they could be the main damage-takers, as for some reason they always the computer often targets them, and they almost always end up in situations with low health, no matter how many defence skills are put on them.
But I would say the best Infantry general is a tie between Straussenberg and Macmahon. Straussenberg- Petain but free. Macmahon- best defensive general in the game, and needed for 2 history missions, very useful when put on inf special units or even new infantry (Straussenberg gets the HMG, unless there's 2 hmg's lying around, and I don't want to waste 10 turns' worth of income just getting my gens out- it already takes about 8 to put them out on armoured cars)
I find that it's quite a pity that there's no Austro-hungarian History mission, considering the fact that there's quite a few Austrian gens in the game, and most of them are good to great generals. Like none are bad- except maybe archduke Eugen and Emperor Franz Joseph.

History missions are about historical campaigns or wars and playable country is the one which won except in battle of isonzo where we play as Italy despite it lost isonzo campaign, though it won on alpine front near piave River and ET has named it wrong. |
