I have Yamashita. But I think, I need second inf general. Because some of warzone missions are inf dominated and in some frontiers you start with high hp mecanized inf. Which gen I should buy? I am between MacArthur and Mannerheim options.

I am between MacArthur and Mannerheim options. What about Higuchi? Cheap and already has lv3 inf leader+lv2 raider. |

Get Higuchi. He is cheap and has 5 stars in infantry. You can give him crossfire. I am still unsure though

And Higuchi's rank is lower than MacArthur but skill levels are higher than MacArthur🤔. But I think another possibility too what if easytech adds biography mission line for MacArthur in future 🤔. Because I'm in endgame phase and now I search for stronger options, not cheaper ones 😅 |

Higuchi looks very good compared to some other inf gens. He loses in terms of * power by 1*.
Yet he dominates Rundstedt because Rundstedt requires Inf Leader + Raider on top of his Guerilla to excel.
Higuchi only needs Guerilla to be like Rundstedt, or can trade it for a different skill like Explosives.
Plus, Higuchi's special skill works more frequently than Urban Warfare. So, its use and value is more.
I don't even have Higuchi, I have Rundstedt at purple rank, with all skills at lvl 5 except Elastic Defense. I think Higuchi has more value as an inf gen.
Of course, Rundstedt does have his air *s, but you're not concerned about that. Plus, having at least 1 air gen is expected in post-endgame content.

As to MacArthur's potential chapter... They say: "we'll cross that bridge when we come to it". It may be this year, next one or... never. Right now the difference between Higuchi and MacArthur is fairly marginal. Besides, Higuchi's first skill is still better than 2 skills of MacArthur. |

I'm pretty much in agreement with the others where Higuchi is my favored choice for you. MacArthur isn't bad either, and if you're so worried you could probably pick him up without losing too much sleep over it. It's just a pretty big medal difference makes him a little hard to justify for not that much better in performance. And I kind of wanted to get this off my chest, but I don't get all the hype around Mannerheim. Maybe before Higuchi was in the game, but even then Rundstedt is in the game with higher potential and a cheaper base cost when fully discounted. And from what I remember it isn't that hard to beat all his missions. My true pick is Vasilevsky because I have a soft spot for him  |

Higuchi is the most versatile of all infantry generals
You can put anything you want as his last skill - inspiration,explosives or defensive like guerilla or rumor.
Therefore I think he is the best choice if you haven't gotten him yet.

Ill not speak on Higuchi, as he is a new general... and I am an older player who did not have him as an option earlier on.
I have 4 infantry Generals. Some were used on commandoes, mech infantry for city cracking with explosives, etc. But with the updates, their roles have changed somewhat
My 1st was Rundstedt. I now have given him Economy and Airforce leader and use him as a resource General in a city. The medal economy medal boosts his Elastic defense which helps in defending his post and his high mobility, 24 on mechs with ribbon, helps me get him where needed to support others as a back up air/infantry/resource hybrid.
2nd recruited was Yamashita and like him on Brandenburgs for now, but used him on mobile if no commandoes available. He is strictly infantry still unlike Rundstedt.
3rd was MacArthur, added because of the warzones and used him with explosives on Mech infantry vs forts, etc. I decided to keep him. Then updates came and saw he could also be used on combat medics at least, if needed, so i gave him the repair which along with his high mobility makes him more feasible in the field.
4th was Simo. He is my go to, main general on a lvl 5 Hawkeye unit. Essential for me with 3 medal (p2w inf. Medal). He also happens to be my highest damage General with 1083. Cant wait 'til he has maxed ribbons, unit, etc.
Lastly, i keep Graziani, with his 5 stars, on standby for the Alpini infantry since both boost mountain warfare. I rarely use him except for conquests, just for fun. To bad his repair skill is restricted to armor/artillery, since all his other skills are ambiguous and can jump from armor to infantry easily.
Ive not really looked at Higuchi, so I abstain from sharing any opinion on him. For now, the ones i have fill my needs, but will make a mental note should my needs change. Sharing this to expand options for informed decisions. Ultimately, you decide how you play and what you need. Good luck and enjoy.

Sharing this to expand options for informed decisions. Ultimately, you decide how you play and what you need. Good luck and enjoy. Nice idea for giving Rundstedt economic skill and AF stars (did that long time ago for AF stars but only to speedrun conquest. Spawned then moved across the continent to sweep cracked city with air, before Chennault exist). I think that, for F2P, Yamashita still the best infantry gen, give him Infantry Leader and explosive, IL + Raider + Great Soldier medal, best inf. ribbon and he won't dissapoint you. For 2nd gen, Mannerheim, Higuchi, McArthur, and Rundstedt are on par if they're given the same medal. Depends on your needs and style of play. -McA: Super fast, fort/city cracker, but expensive. He'll make your conquest speedrun easier. - Higuchi: Lite McA -Rundstedt and Mannerheim: Cheap, not really good to crack city/fort compared to other gen with explosive, if you love to jungle a lot pick Mannerheim, if you need the 1v1 enemy gen killer and need extra AF gen pick Rundstedt. Both of them can be given all 3 medals (McA and Higuchi can carry only 2 spare medal). |

Sharing this to expand options for informed decisions. Ultimately, you decide how you play and what you need. Good luck and enjoy. I do say Combat Medic would work best with Marshall because his Guerrilla Master and Organization skills offers good survivability while Infantry Group Charge allows him to borrow damage from any 2 infantries (generals on them included) nearby and compensating the unit’s low attack (dealing 1028 damage against infantry on Medic by borrowing damage from Hawkeye Force Mannheim, non of them wearing infantry medal), making the pair good support to infantry generals. My Rundstedt is also Air/Econ build but usually commanding the Brandenburger to keep him frequently in reach of a city (and even airport), Yamashita packs enough punch on 4-stack Mech Infantry to one-shot fortifications in many cases so he doesn’t really need the Brandenburger. |
