Hello. I have just returned to this game, and I have seen there are new rewards, but also new generals, who should be my first general? I think the META has changed with these new additions.

Guderian (much easier to obtain as first because of updates), Govorov or Crear (if obtaining Guderian is still a challenge).

Ah, I remember I had to get Badoglio for some help through campaigns and Ozawa as optional, glad there are rewards now so it makes the grinding much easier. I think Govorov as a first will help me breeze to campaigns and conquests well enough to get Guderian too. |

Guderian and Govorov are still the best choices. Because new rotation generals exist now you don't need to get Crerar, Rommel, Konev, or Bai. Your best path is probably
Guderian - Govorov - one of Weidling/Sikorski/EC - Patton/Katukov - one more of Weidling/Sikorski/EC
After that you can pretty much get anyone you want.

Thanks for the info! I can add Ozawa shouldn't be bought either. Luigi Sansonetti is basically Ozawa but buffed. I will consider the choices with the new rotational generals  |

Pre-update, Ozawa was only borderline useful anyway, and since there are way better naval (Sansonetti, Mikawa, even Horton) and air (Bittrich) generals then he's not needed anymore. All of the rotation generals except Weygand are at least somewhat useful, and the game is now f2p-friendly enough that you can experiment a bit. |

I can easily name 3 new generals worse than Weygand. Also his skills look unconvincing, I've heard some good words about him for people trying a lineup entirely out of new generals. Ozawa was useful and more importantly cheap for his attributes. So Sansonetti was the only reason. |

Ozawa was useful and more importantly cheap for his attributes. So Sansonetti was the only reason. Well, in terms of absolute quality he's better than at least two-thirds of the academy roster. But considering Katukov and even Anders already exist there's no reason to get him if you have cheaper AND better alternatives. Weidling, Horton, Mikawa, Sikorski, Katukov, Bittrich are really good Anders, Tolbukhin, Yeryomenko, Falkenhorst are alright or decent Weygand is ok Kimmel was used in my all-american run so I like him even though he sucks Pavlov doesn't even exist. Who's Pavlov? I don't know him... Early-game air generals aren't that necessary, and Ozawa's fine but he also wasn't going to win a mission for you that you would have lost without him (except for maybe allies 2 and axis 8/9) |

Surprisingly according to the feedback I got, Weygand outperformed Anders. Doesn't change the fact that I will never buy him though. |

Uff, checking the thread days later. I have both now. Daily reward, conquest pass, challenges in 1939 conquest really let me get pretty much 5000 medals really fast. |

Use it, then you will find the miracle as most of the map covers plain lands. |
