I just unlocked 1942 Pacific Front and perfect cleared all of 1939. I have Guderian, Monty, Leeb, the free gens and 789 medals. This is my first playthrough so I am not too experienced. Which General should I get next?
I'm thinking about either Nimitz or Donitz/Nagumo to help with Pacific, or maybe Macarthur because I don't have an allied infantry. I'd rather get an allies general because my axis team is much stronger.

Buy either Rundstedt (Then Nagumo is your naval gen) or Yamashita (Then Dönitz is your naval gen), buy Mac when you entering 1941 North Africa. Also if your naval tech is high enough then you probably don't need a naval general.

In that case I would get Yamashita/Donitz because Donitz is slightly better than Nagumo price aside and I like Yamashita's damage and speed over Rundstedt's survivability. I'm going to wait for a few more opinions first but I will keep that in mind. |

I would weigh in for Macarthur. He's arguably the best allied infantry general, and you're going to need him in the jungles. Then in the desert. Then along the Rhine.
As for an allied naval general... Nimitz would do the job, but I personally only got Nimitz at 1945. 1942 is doable without Nimitz, and 1941 after that won't have such a strong focus on navy.

I will see if I can clear 1942 without naval generals (besides the free ones). I think that there was someone on this forum that perfect cleared up to 1942 with only the free gens so it is definitely doable. |

I'd rather get an allies general because my axis team is much stronger. I got Rommel when I was at 1942. I wouldn't recommend this if you don't have the medals, but after hat I got Mountbatten, helped me with Taranto in 39' and almost perfected all of Allies 42'. Axis missions are much harder, and I just got Yamashita today, he's a beast. Rommel was unneeded, so Mountbatten/Nimitz would work. |

randomperson, I have come to North Africa 1941 without buying any allied general. They are pretty much easy and doable without any generals. It's another matter for perfect clear though. I have struggled quite a bit in Axis North Africa, even with Guderian, Yamashita, Leeb, though you might be a better player. I would recommend you Yamashita/Donitz combo because they are useful in not only campaigns, but even in challenge mode too(especially Donitz). Maybe then you can get MacArthur

Good to know that the allied pacific missions are pretty easy. As a result, I will probably not get Nimitz. MacArthur looks like a good choice because he is the best Allied infantry and will be useful for the rest of the game. I am also trying to perfect clear all of 1941 Eastern Front so MacArthur will be very useful for that too. 2. In challenge mode I have made it to lvl 7 with just Guderian-Leeb-Monty. If a pure naval battle comes up I just surrender and try again. Donitz will be useful for challenge mode but challenge mode isn't very important. Right now Donitz/MacArthur seem to be the best choices, but I like MacArthur better for the reasons stated above. |

I have only completely beaten GCR and EW6:1914 (Although honestly that game was too easy). |

And EW6 1914 has good generals and tough game (Challenges, 1914 and 18 conquest...) |

I beat it back when farming was nearly impossible unlike now where I can get 100-200 medals a day (top general is 600 medals). Still, EW6:1914 is incredibly easy because medals aren't really a problem unlike practically every other ET game. |

Thanks, guys for the input. I have decided to get MacArthur because he will be more useful after 1942 pacific theater, unlike nimitz.

I can hardly survive without artillery or navy generals in the pacific as, zink , would tell you. |
