You can also consider vatutin as you restarted. He has very powerful output and his speed won’t matter at the end of the game. He has panzer leader lvl 3 already and will only need armored assualt to level 2ish. I’d rather get Vatutin over Leeb. They have different roles, but Leeb needs to be upgraded way too much. Seriously, I’d get Arnold as an artillery general over Leeb, too. |

Level 3 seems to be the bridge between expensive and cheap regarding skills in the game. My last roster (Manstein, Leeb, Guderian, Dowding, Rundstedt, Konev, Nimitz), had made a lot of success. But this time I won’t spend medals buying resources and I will use Arnold and Mannerheim instead of Dowding and Rundstedt. I might also include Rokossovsky as a temporary general for Rommel's missions because buying Rokossovsky and selling him to get 40% Rommel is cheaper than Rommel's 20% discounted price. |

I believe the wonders are super useful. Basically, get ready to farm conquest into oblivion from the get go (with air power). |

You know what? I MIGHT spend medals to buy resources FOR wonders, because wonders are very useful and they also increase HQ Level. Tech is pretty affordable via Conquest. |

I think it’s better for me to replace Leeb with Rokossovsky. I barely relied on Leeb after I got Konev, I often put Leeb on artillery alongside Konev just because I could. In other words, I felt like Leeb was redundant. |

You should replace leeb with arnold though, as you can use him on tanks too |

Lvl 3 tech + medal means you get 6 extra technologies in the city he is on. Plus a couple extra coins too. I’d say he would make conquest less of a pain |

Blitzkrieg. Modern war campaigns are really hard so best be ready for them. I would avoid putting rumor on either roko or rommel. But make sure you have enough rumor for modern war. You might even have to use nimitz and kuznetsov on land. |

You might even have to use nimitz and kuznetsov on land. Sure, sure, that’s why I have Timoshenko around. But I’m a bit insecure about getting Rokossovsky, because I plan on using him as someone to clear Rommel's missions, since I feel like if I include him alongside Manstein, Guderian, Timoshenko and Rommel, Timo will lose utility which can culminate into me selling him. I know that the sale would result in a medal loss. Are Manstein, Guderian and Timoshenko enough to clear Rommel's missions? On my past playthrough which had been the most successful, I managed to beat Rommel's second missions with max European and Pacific tank tech and with Manstein, Guderian and Arnold as generals, all of them unupgraded save for Guderian having Level 1 Rumor and Level 1 Plain Fighting as additional skills, plus everyone having the green rank plates. This time, I have Manstein with all of his skills Level 3, Guderian with all of his skills Level 3, Level 4 Rumor and Level 3 Cover, And Timoshenko with all of his skills Level 3, with Rumor being Level 4. I yet have to get the Cross, Hero and Assault Medals for Guderian, Super Tanks, green nameplates and full Pacific War tank tech. Also, Freedom and Victory Medals for Timoshenko. |

Do you have konev? Because I would see about getting him next. Rommel’s third mission should be at least doable for you team, but after you get the cross, hero, and assualt medals. I don’t remember which ones the armored assualt, or the blitzkrieg medal’s are, but i’d say that that is your next best step. Germany USSr or France are the best countries for a quick win in 1939, and Ussr or Japan are great countries for 1943. You only need Rommel’s 3rd mission when you actually want to buy rommel, so I would focus on conquests now. |

Also you will have to sell timo eventually i am afraid. But its not a big loss as he is a relatively cheap general. So hold off on investing further medals into him.
Same with arnold. But that’s really not for a long time as they are both very useful in conquest.

I was thinking of targeting Konev as my next general, I have a good team and enough medals to buy him. Thanks! |

Remember, you pretty much won once you beat the cold war campaign and the modern war conquest (everything else is too unreasonable). Once you get to the point where you exhausted your medal supply, but have everything else nailed is when you can consider starting european war 6. |
