Hi, in this series you pick a general. What if you had to choose one? Who would you pick?

Just copying general analyses
Patton
Good city cracking skill by Explosive, and good surviving be Blitzkrieg and Ace Forces. He could help Guderian for saving health.
Recommended as second tank slot.
Erwin Johannes Eugen Rommel
L General
Health: 200
Infantry: **
Tank: *****
Artillery: ***
Air Force: **
Navy: *
Movement: ***
Panzer Leader: ****
Tide of Iron: ****
Ace Forces: ****
Anti-Armor: *
Desert Fighting: ****
Price: 3300
The tank general with great surviving skill(200 health, Tide of Iron, Ace Forces), good. Level 4 Desert Fighting... Fine? At least you won't worry about North African Battlefield. Level 1 Anti-Armor? WTH?! You kidding? You are giving a guy who can use anti-air artillery to beat the tanks only level one?! These are the two problems, which causes him sometimes has to give his place to Patton(Explosive) or Vatutin(cheap, Plain Fighting).
A choice of If No. 3 tank slot, if you have enough medals or cares surviving and movement more than output.

One of the biggest difference among the 2 of them is whether you want Street FightingxExplosive or Dessert FightingxAnti Armor. I am to Patton, that you know, our main objective in conquest are capturing cities, and campaigns as well as challenges also involve cities, that means Patton is specialize on doing the job. Desserts campaign and challenges are limited, and so as there is not much desserts in every conquests. Anti Armor is a good skill for me, but if only Rommel got this one with at least a higher level... 0.0

Patton mate he makes a huge difference he has explosives which is very useful in capturing cities most of the missions ask you to capture cities also he has the street fighting ability
Whereas Rommel has the desert fighting ability and Rommel has anti armour vs. Patton's explosives , explosives is better so you really have to go for Patton and I think and plus if want a general with plain fighting I think guderian is enough patton is slower in terms of mobility but has a huge advantage with explosives you can take cities just like manstein
So focus on Patton mate !

I think we can boil it down to this: Explosives+Street fighting+Blitzkrieg VS Tide of Iron + Desert Fighting Health are almost same, they both have 5 tank stars, 3 movemen and 4 ace forces. Round 1: Street fighting (+20) VS Desert fighting (+20) Small win for Patton. Both skills are used only occasionally, but the cities are easier to find then deserts. Round 2: Explosives (+24) VS Tide of Iron (+24) I personally prefer Tide of Iron, but it is fair to call it a standoff. Explosives only apply to city health and forts, but is always counted for +24 increase. Tide of iron applies to all targets, so it is a much more useful damage increase than explosives. Downside is that it triggers only below 50% health. Round 3: Blitzkrieg (18%) VS Anti-armor (+3) I put anti armor only to fill the slot. This skill is almost completely useless, more so with only lvl.1. See this thread for detailed analysis: european-war-4.boards.net/thread/2338/best-commander-skillsThe survivability increase can be directly converted into amount of damage the general can deal during his life. So that's quite significant. Conclusion: Patton wins. However, I'd have chose Rommel if Patton did not have blitzkrieg. |

I accidentally created the post in midst of writing it, so I deleted it and uploaded a new one. That's why you saw that abrupt end
