I gave Rommel panzer leader and rumor in the last two slots. Blitzkrieg would have worked instead of P.L. but Rumor I felt was a must.

Rommel is an amazing panzer commander, often used as "Guderian's number two" by many players. His excellence lies on the fact that he has 6 panzer star, armored assault, crossfire (although not that great), and good mobility (3). Although, his desert fighting is pretty much useless (rarely takes effect).
For the other two skill slot, I would highly recommend rumor (obligatory) and Blitzkrieg (highly recommend). Rumor is very vital in the end games. Blitzkrieg allows him to attack with minimum casualties. In the modern war, the use of Blitzkrieg and rumor will work as a great combat maneuver combination as you can inject your rumor infections without getting hit by the enemy.
His crossfire is also useful as it is stacked with AA and I recommend to give the medal to buff the crossfire (60% max). Thus, he will be a general that doesn't take much damage when attacking and giving savage blows when attacked. He will be able to be used for both offensive and defensive purpose without giving away one of his functions. It also fits his real-life characteristics. In real life, Hitler said Rommel was excellent when faced with bad situations, but pessimistic during easy situations. That's it! Hitting hard when attacked with crossfire + medal. In real life he was also good at Blitzkrieg just as Guderian.
Why not panz leader? You already have Guderian and Rokossovsky as your panzer damage dealers. Follow my advice (giving Rommel Blitzkrieg and rumor) and you'll thank me especially in the modern war.
Note: buy him as soon as you can after buying Guderian. For his last discount mission, you should buy Graziani or Rokossovsky to assist Guderian, Messe, and Leeb. Equip them with rumor to ensure the success of the mission. Also, his desert fighting is almost useless (although I see a lot of people obsessed by his desert fighting). Only upgrade his desert fighting when you are already super rich (later in the game).

Well Rommel's max offensive capabilities are still much more than Roko or Graziani, thats why I am uncomfortable with shoving him to the sidelines |

Each generals should their unique traits and roles. Guderian won't be able to Blitzkrieg-Rumor all enemies alone. You will need Rommel to accompany him in Blitz, Graziani in machinist, and Rokossovsky in panz leader. Maybe I'll talk about it later in details in the "Doctrine discussion" |

Personally, I have all offensive skills + blitzkrieg on Rommel, and rumor on Rokossovsky. I rely more on support generals, since the game clearly allows us the liberty of having such beneficial support generals, why not use them? In this case Rumor on Guderian, Konev and Arnold is more than enough as I use Rommel for the hard offensive; not all my main generals have to possess rumor ya know.
I made use of Rommel's offensive superiority over Rokossovsky. You mentioned doctrine, and I found this to be effective and efficient (for me at least):
1st general should be thrown to attack or capture anything. 2nd tank general should either pack a decisive punch, or could fill in a support (rumor) role. 3rd tank general depends on the first. We all have varying playing styles, so I guess it does not really matter which path you choose. After all, nothing is set in stone, and a support vs offense general can never be compared accurately

That's my deck, I'm trying to make the best deck for many different circumstances. And I'm planning to add Patton. He is not that bad after all (only a few inches bellow Rokossovsky). I will make a review about Patton soon. |

Looks like you are going to change a bit of your view. surely not, arguing that they will be of use is just an intentional attempt at being special/choosing a different path. Which to me does not bring any benefit to my game whatsoever |

Montgomery is better than Patton, at least. Monty at 6th place, and Patton at 10th place, for tank general. Both of them is not worth to buy |
