Today, I will attempt to compare all relevant Axis artillery generals (or, Leeb and Badoglio). Criticism is welcome.
IAP. Zhukov
1. Leeb
2. Badoglio
Bonus: Rommel
Thanks for reading! Another good read about artillery generals is this rating by Lucklife . (Lucklife is like a god at this game btw)
IAP. Zhukov
Price: $6.99 USD
Promotional stars: 4
Stars: 5 in Artillery, 3 in Infantry, 3 in Armor, 2 in Air, 3 in Movement
Skills: Artillery Leader (Gold), Accuracy (Gold), Artillery Barrage (Gold)
Strengths:
- Better damage than them all
- Aura
- Movement
Weaknesses:
- IAP
- If you are gonna drop greenbacks on this game, why not get something else?
Analysis:
The best. The best damage, the best aura, the best movement, the whole shabang. The worse (or worst) IAP general though. Compared to the below, obviously superior in every manner (except for city-camping capability, compared to Badoglio). His damage is godly on Katyusha or Elefant. However, he is objectively worse than Manstein (as usually tank gens are bought more than artillery ones). His package is the second best (can't beat cold hard medals).

1. Leeb
Price: 795 medals
Promotional stars: 4
Stars: 4 in Artillery, 2 in Infantry, 1 in Movement
Skills: Fire Focus (Gold), Artillery Leader (Silver), Accuracy (Gold)
Strengths:
- Much better damage than Badoglio
Weaknesses:
- Worse movement than Badoglio
Analysis:
According to some, including the expert Lucklife , the best artillery general in the game. However, some (by which I mean Gerdy) are ditching him for Badoglio. Now, he has far superior damage compared to Badoglio, with 12% extra crit rate and 12% chance to attack again, and an extra star. However, Badoglio has Economics and an extra star in movement, and a better price. All I can say is that his damage is great, but you can't expect any other tricks other than crazy damage. His movement is remedied by promoted Elefant.

2. Badoglio
Price: 640 medals
Promotional stars: 3
Stars: 3 in Artillery, 1 in Infantry, 1 in Armor, 2 in Movement
Skills: Economics (Gold), Fire Focus (Gold), Accuracy (Silver)
Strengths:
- Better movement than Leeb
- Economics
Weaknesses:
- Worse damage than Leeb
- Movement is redundant on artillery due to the glorious promoted Elefant
Analysis:
He is Gerdy's favorite and is the only Axis general with Economics. And his Econ partners with Karl as you can now camp in a city with 4 range, as you will never move. But it may be weird when your artillery has to move, because there are no more enemies to hit. After that, Badoglio has no real ups over Leeb other than 1 star in movement that is remedied by Elefant, and a handful of medals. And his damage is no hero.

- Decent output

Only for emergencies in Challenge mode, as he has bad output out of desert. He does have 3 stars in movement though. All in all much worse than the above 3.
