Just finished up the last of the Cold War hard mode scenarios, with three stars on all of them. I actually think the fifth WTO mission, “Dawn from the East,” is the toughest to get three stars. The Rockies completely block the cities you have to get up towards Montana and North Dakota. You have to circle around. It is very hard to split your forces and take those cities while also clearing Arizona and Southern California. You start out with very few units and have to fight a major naval engagement. Allies are terrible as always.

Congratulations, really !
Same for me, all the missions completed in Hard mode (3 stars) since this morning. But the hardest for me was maybe « Western European Union » when you have to face the main NATO powers in Europe.

It sucks having to retake all the cities Your allies lose.

Which generals did you use? I am stuck at normal mode at WTO 4 and NATO 5. I have a full roster of all the best generals. You get six for hard mode scenarios. I generally use Dönitz as my first naval general, Nimitz as a second if needed. Yamamoto rarely if a carrier is present and can make a difference with him on it. Most often use Manstein and Guderian as tank generals, Rommel as third option. Konev as artillery general, Zhukov as second. On rare occasion when infantry general makes sense, Yamashita is my top pick.

soonerjbd, Thank you, I am very close to complete the hard mode for the WWII scenario's in both campaigns, I need 1 in Europe and 3 in the Pacific, I just cant win those and I cant get any further in the cold war scenario's. My generals are: Leeb, Rommel and Konev (I have upgraded all of them). Any suggestions on what to do?

Some of the Pacific missions in particular really call for a naval general. If there is a specific scenario you are struggling with, post a thread about it and people can give specific tips for that scenario.

Sorry forgot that I also have Nimitz, only upgraded his movement stars.
