I recently began to play GoG Classic and Pacific. It's like I want to play it more and more over the other games. So I am going to do the guide for this now.
No generals but the provided general were used. My general was a colonel at the time, and I only had one upgrade in the industry. Completed at 2 stars on colonel, 5 stars on brigadier general.
1. From the start, land your troops as fast as possible, which means landing directly south of your troops. Take the town closest to that landing zone. With your ships, move them towards the second closest dock, not the first. The docks aren't useful at all, but the second docks are a medium for your cruisers to bombard the objective on the coast.
2. With your army, split them in half so that your general and some other troops are marching on the refinery-thingy and Constantine. The other half is to take the factory up north. With the navy, take down the French destroyer on the second docks and begin bombarding the coastal objective.
3. Once your general and his troops reach Constantine, just attack it and it will be taken in a couple of turns, assisted by Messe. Here, prioritize taking down the AA and Tassigny. The troops that took the industry should hold off as well as attack the coastal objective that are under fire from your cruisers. Note that the cruisers should be ready at any moment to divert their fire towards the French destroyers that might take down the submarines that are important for the end of the mission.
4. Once the message that initiates the overall decrease in French morale occurs, have your troops in/around Constantine charge west towards the airfield south of Algiers. Hopefully Messe will be a good AI and take the objective north of Graziani with Graziani's help. If that occurs, just continue north from there into Algiers. If not, send a couple of troops that you should build to help out.
5. Assuming you did all of this, there should be little French troops left other than Algiers. Your general and his troops should attack Algiers from the south, while the troops that took the coastal objective should attack from the east. Your navy should take down Darlan with the help of that 80 cash health regeneration and then bombard Algiers from the north. Objectives should be to take down the AA, Darlan, and Gamelin. The industry is optional. When the AA is down, use the airfield that you captured to air raid Algiers and take it. This is assuming you didn't build too many troops and that your income is good enough. From there, victory is yours.
