This is for ELITE ONLY, that if you are very confident with your skill. Beginners, please go to this thread: european-war-4.boards.net/thread/1532/attention-new-players-choosing-generalsThis is really hard, if you feel uncomfortable with this, you can switch to the other path anytime you want. Beginning Game:Save all medals you have, straight to Guderian and Govorov, either one is fine, but make sure that these are the only two you buy at the beginning. Upgrade as less tech as possible, it'll be best if you don't upgrade them at all, these resources (mainly industry and energy) will be used to get Pyramids, City of Cuzco and Terracotta built ASAP. If you really really feel hard and don't want to give up, buy Ozawa, but remember he is the only one. *This is NOT impossible, someone in China uses only missile 3 (for MRBM) and three eye covered and get Guderian successfully. Mid Game:But Patton. Then you can start to make eye covered, 2 artilleries(Plain Fighting+Explosive+Supply+Artillery Barrage+Ace Forces/Street Fighting) and 1 tank(Plain Fighting+Explosive+Blitzkrieg+Tide of Iron+Supply/Ace Forces). Build an artillery first. Late Game:Upgrade the other eye covered artillery tank. For infantry and air slot, give your second eye covered artillery some stars. For navy slot, give your eye covered tank some stars. Note: for alien campaign 9, you might have to put one eye covered artillery on infantry. That's it, 3 eye covered, Guderian, Govorov, Patton, these are the all six(Ozawa? Sell him when your eye covered guys are nearly done). If you have confidence for doing this, come on!

I recently restarted to check whether you get manstein back (other thread a month ago). Not really playing a lot and ofc upgraded already lots of tech.. I will stop with that and get the medal wondes somewhere as possible as can..
I didnt spend medals yet and was planning to go for 1. Guderian 2. Goverov 3. Patton 4 yamamoto 5. Goring 6. Making eye covering generals
Butif i read your advice i should buy guderian and patton and then make eye cov generals? (Manstein in stead of govorov?) or instead of 1 of the tank generals. Instead of patton? --> i think thelast option is what i will use

If you really don't like Govorov's movement, you can still make another eye covered.

Erich von Manstein, dont you think i can use for campaigns manstein instead of patton.. So only getting guderian and govorov before start to grade 1st art gen? Btw whats you strategy to grade them? 1st 1 stat max or every stat 1 step up? And when grading their officer level? I have no idea yet

Btw whats you strategy to grade them? 1st 1 stat max or every stat 1 step up? And when grading their officer level? I have no idea yet The beginning stage of eye covered is the same as the normal path(3*arty&movement, lvl 3 Plain, lvl 2 Explosive&Barrage, M General). Manstein has higher output than Patton, but Patton could hold more damage, so it depends on you that whether output(Manstein), or cheaper+survivalability(Patton). The biggest problem with Manstein is that he does not have Tide of Iron. Even though Patton doesn't has it also, he has Ace Forces to gain health faster than Manstein. But with artillery Manstein's health doesn't drop that fast, that's the reason why I recommend to put Manstein on artillery more.

Erich von Manstein, I must say that I really enjoy my restart and using your tactics.. Ok, I am blessed with Manstein and thereby really easily proceed. I got guderian and govorov. Building up for patton/ 1-eye art gen. Build both 1 and 2 medal making wounders. The. Question i have for you is the following.. To get terracotta wounder and creating 3-medal maker i need to finish a lot of navy missions.. I get now the 15th failed mission since there are no navy generals.. Ofc i can give my 1-eyed art more navy or did u succeded without any changes in your above written tac to get terracotta?

My advice is: raise a few navy stars(you'll need it for break through 8, right?), or just buy Ozawa, depends on which one do you like.

Or maybe i can spend less then 550 medals on the art 1-eye and another 1 just giving cheap stars for mission (from 1-2 naval star only 50 medals)

The eye covered guys will still be weak with there low rank thought and to raise that it will cost more.

I succeded in achieving the terracotta wounder (only need 20k imdustry to make it). I did not buy ozawa but just made my art 1-eye general a 3 star naval general (cost me 180 medals and this is not wasted since this guys will stay 1 ofmy end game generals). Moreover, i made 1 of my other 1-eye generals, which i wont use laterin the game a 2 star naval guy (50 medlas and gave him lvl2 fleat leader 150 medals). These 200 medals are probably wasted (but this is always less then the 550 for ozawa)
Btw I did build Himeji catsle to proceed and succeed accumulate supplies 2.. With only this 1 i got to lvl6 without problem.

A little difficult to grind but it was fun. Yes, it challenging, but you'll feel better with this path.
