I am currently trying to perfect clear all of Pacific 42' for the 250 medals+more from Africa achievements. New Guinea is the last one I have left but I am struggling on it. I have no naval generals except the free ones. I also have Guderian, Rommel, Leeb, Yamashita and the free gens. I believe it is possible, but if it turns out to be pretty much impossible, I might just go and beat 1944 and come back to this (I also have Govorov, MacArthur, Patton and Monty which should be more than enough to beat 44). Thanks!

I think it's slightly bordering on impossible with your current gens.
You need at least one 4 star naval gen, an additional air force gen is a big plus.
The guide in the library used Donitz, and I personally used Nagumo and kesserling.
As you've probably figured out, it's a lot more naval than land after the first island.

Thanks! I may be able to tell you some tips. 1. Buy Donitz/Nagumo and Kesselring/Yamamoto. They will make this mission SO MUCH EASIER. 2. Paradrop Yamashita + SF Jaeger/ARR to this Island. It will make you able to bomb MacArthur and Nimitz with money.  3. This was my team when I perfected cleared this mission. Yamashita - Model - Kesselring (on aircraft carrier) - Nagumo (didn’t buy Donitz instead and am still regretting it) - Osawa - Riccardi 4. Accumulate your money to bomb Nimitz Good luck on this mission, hopes I could help  |

Yeah my navy stinks so it is nearly impossible. 3/4 of my bought generals are useless (Leeb, Guderian, Rommel) after the first island which is not good. I will most likely return to this mission after I clear 1944 and buy Donitz. Btw, do I need 2 infantries for 1944? Right now my build is 1 heavy tank, 1 medium tank, 1 inf, 1 arty for both sides which I think is enough for all land missions but I am not sure. |

I made the mistake of buying Govorov before Donitz and now I can't beat this mission. If I bought Donitz, I would've been able to get the 250 medals from perfect clearing 1942+250 medals for perfect clearing 1941 africa which added onto my current medals would've been enough to get Govorov.

Right now my build is 1 heavy tank, 1 medium tank, 1 inf, 1 arty for both sides which I think is enough for all land missions but I am not sure. The second infantry you’ll buy for Axis will be Kesselring. I suggest you add Nimitz/Halsey to your roaster for 1945, I don’t suggest buying a second infantry for allies, unless it’s Dowding and even there, I suggest you buy Hasley instead. Here was my roaster for the two campaigns. 1944 Axis end: Nagumo - Kesselring - Rommel - Guderian - Yamashita - Leeb 1944 Allies end: Rokossovsky - Patton - Govorov - MacArthur 1945 Axis end: Nagumo - Kesselring - Rommel - Guderian - Yamashita - Leeb 1945 Allies end: Rokossovsky - Pattton - Govorov - MacArthur - Nimitz (makes life easier but unnecessary) Bought after I finished the game Axis: Rundstedt Allies: Hasley - Vatutin Plans to buy Donitz —> Badoglio —> Graziani —> Montgomery —> Mountbatten |

You can do it without buying new navy generals.
Get Osawa, Riccardi, Guderian, Yamashita and one aura air general(I used Kesselring).
1. Go total blitzkrieg in the main island and capture much territory as possible. Guderian cannot resupply properly, so let it go. Try to capture the landing city in turn 2.
1.1 Buy battleship at start and give Osawa, and air general to carrier.
Clear the waters and support the landing. (In turn 1, destroy the ship that blocks the landing using the navy and a troop boat)
2.In turn 4 paradrop a reinforcement(nickname: Troop X) on the island at right.
With the help of navy you will completely capture it.(IMPORTANT)
3. By turn 6 prepare the navy for full onslaught to South. Buy all navy reinforcements. Keep the two carriers together, my Kesselring buffs the damage of other airports and carriers.
3.1 Paradrop that infantry(Troop X) from the far right island to the lower island where you can find a coastal gun(helpful)
Send the navy through far right and capture the ports to resupply. Kincaid will be dead in turn 12.
4. Land forces Blitz in left(Yamashita go brrrrr...)
5. Clear the airports in far right and capture them using the Troop X, once got to one island close enough to Nimitz, you are already won the battle.
5.5 Give Riccardi Cruiser in one of the Southern islands near Nimitz, I barely killed Fletcher in turn 18.
Yamashita will land in final objective island, by now your resources should be a lottery grand prize, I had 300 coins. So hell bombed Nimitz to the bottom of the sea. And killed MacArthur with Yamashita.
And captured the final objective.
In short: Land units Blitz,command air superiority over the final objectives using the navy.
My tech was 44221, so keep faith,

My tech was 44221, so keep faith, I will try again although I don't have any aura air gens (or any air gens for that matter). Instead, I will use Model to help out yamashita. My tech is 3-6-3-4-3 which is a bit better compared to yours but kesselring is a big advantage. I will try a run tomorrow morning and see how it goes. |

I finally finished it! I made a few modifications like using my money to carry out bombing raids earlier in the campaign and buying one air reinforcement to offset the lost damage from not having kesselring. Also, I sacked my fleet to kill fletcher+secure the air base and guderian survived all the way up to the final base.

Nice nice, did you experience the feeling of "Oh &$@#" when you saw Nimitz after yeeting your fleet? |

When I saw Nimitz it was a relief, but before that, seeing those big ships blocking the way was scary😂 |

Nice nice, did you experience the feeling of "Oh &$@#" when you saw Nimitz after yeeting your fleet? Not really, I was making about 80 gold a turn and I took out fletcher+secured the air base 3 turns earlier than the deadline so I had plenty of time to bomb Nimitz to the bottom of the ocean. The scariest part was when Yamashita's special force didn't die (guess I did too good avoiding damage) so I had to do a naval landing. I used some troopships+guderian and my carriers as distractions while Yamashita landed. I like how in this game air is actually relevant because you can't just build more troops. |
