🟢 General Messe: The Upgrading Trap
The Base Cost: 550 Medals (Bronze Tier). [1, 2]
The Cost Problem: While 550 medals is a great price for a starter general, upgrading him is a massive financial trap. To train him from Bronze to a Purple nameplate and max out his stars/skills, you have to spend thousands of medals and rare training materials (Swords/Sceptres of Dominance).

Why the cost is bad: For the exact same total medal investment it takes to max out Messe, you can buy Guderian (2,935 medals) or a discounted Rommel (around 1,671 medals). Guderian completely destroys a maxed-out Messe in damage output without even needing upgrades. Upgrading Messe is essentially paying a luxury price for a budget product.

🔵 General Dowding: The Overpriced Hybrid
The Base Cost: 1,341 Medals (with Domination discounts).
The Cost Problem: Dowding is a Silver general, meaning he is moderately expensive. However, his kit forces you to pay for two things at once: an economic general and an air general. [1]
Why the cost is bad:
If you want an Air General, Arnold costs 1,485 medals. For roughly the same price, Arnold gives you 6 stars in Air and comes with Rumor naturally. You do not have to spend extra medals trying to fix Arnold's skills.
Furthermore, the game later gives you top-tier Air Generals like Chennault for completely free via the Conquest Battle Pass. Paying over 1,300 medals for Dowding just to have an economy skill permanently blocking a crucial combat slot is an inefficient waste of medals.

🟥 General Williams: The Premium Waste of Money
The Base Cost: Real World Currency (In-App Purchase).
The Cost Problem: Williams is a Premium general. When you spend real cash on a premium general, you expect game-breaking power—like Manstein (Tanks) or Zhukov (Artillery), who can instantly clear map sectors.
Why the cost is bad: Williams requires real money just to buy, and then you still have to spend massive amounts of in-game medals or premium training materials to give him basic skills like Artillery Leaderor Accuracy.
Meanwhile, Konev is completely free (unlocked using in-game medals with a 40% discount putting him at 1,593 medals). Konev natively possesses the best offensive artillery skills in the game. Paying real money for Williams when a free-to-play general like Konev hits twice as hard makes Williams one of the worst value-for-money purchases in the entire game

Lenin vs. Trotsky: The Battle for the Soviet Soul
While both were brilliant Marxist theorists who led the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution, they fundamentally disagreed on how to actually build a communist state.
Here is how their methods differed on the four biggest battlegrounds:

1. How to Spread Communism (The Global vs. Local Debate)
Lenin’s View: Secure the home front first. Lenin was a pragmatist. He realized global revolution was stalling, so he focused on building a hyper-centralized one-party state inside Russia to ensure survival.
Trotsky’s View: "Permanent Revolution." Trotsky argued that a backward, agricultural Russia could never achieve true communism alone. He believed the Soviet state would inevitably collapse unless it immediately sparked and funded armed workers' revolutions in industrialized Western nations (like Germany).

2. The Peasant Problem (Capitalism vs. Pure Socialism)
Lenin’s View: Compromise with the masses. Russia was mostly poor peasants, not industrial factory workers. Lenin introduced the New Economic Policy (NEP), which temporarily allowed peasants to sell crops for private profit to keep the economy from collapsing. [1]
Trotsky’s View: Direct state control. Trotsky heavily criticized the NEP, warning it would bring capitalism back. He wanted the state to immediately squeeze the peasantry to fund rapid, hyper-speed industrialization.

3. Party Control (Dictatorship vs. Debate)
Lenin’s View: "Democratic Centralism." Lenin believed the Communist Party needed to operate like a disciplined army. Once the top leadership made a decision, all internal debate and factions were strictly banned.
Trotsky’s View: Internal democracy. While Trotsky was ruthless during the Civil War, he later argued that the party was becoming too bureaucratic. He fought for the rights of party members to openly debate, criticize leadership, and form factions.

4. The Nature of the State (The Vanguard vs. The Masses)
Lenin’s View: The Vanguard Party. Lenin believed regular workers only developed "trade-union consciousness" (wanting better hours/pay) rather than true revolutionary drive. Therefore, a small, elite group of professional revolutionaries (the Vanguard) had to dictate the path forward.
Trotsky’s View: Worker-led democracy. Trotsky placed immense faith in the Soviets (spontaneous workers' councils). He believed the revolution should actively rise from the collective action of the working class, rather than being strictly micro-managed from a government desk in Moscow.

I noted every generals I have on WC4 but I’m only showing the tank ones because there is so many hahahahaha

I modified it today because I buyed Wittmann (maybe I have too many tank gens but Wittmann can now be upgraded to a god general so)

Follow me I’ll post meme etc

So I need to get myself 3 more victory with 1, 2 and 3 star country respectively

Here are my picks (with those I already completed)

Are they good ? Because WTO seems so hard to play with

I tried with Danemark, Sweden and the Moscow Guard but man :

1. Danemark get rolled up easily with the Scorpion in the south of Jutland
2. Sweden get locked in by the Soviet Baltic Fleet
3. Moscow is good but like when I arrive in Germany my Zhukov for example got one shot by Manstein

I just bought Katukov because I needed a tank general better than Pavlov and Armin

He looks like a tank version of Kluge if I check his capacities but idk

> liberates Mussolini in 1943
> overthrow Hungary regent’s Miklòs Horthy in 1944
> Allegiances to Nazi Germany, SS, Françoist Spain, Argentina, Egypt and Israel

Just completed 100% of the final countdown

I didn’t know before that Hartmann + Sukhov is OP and I didn’t have Manstein in this specific time so

I have already god Manstein god Nimitz and god rundstedt but apparently god Dowding is the worst god general with messe and model so can I make him good ? Like with a build or something I need a 2 option air general with Hartmann

It is worth it for real and I think I will not regret it

I listened to you guys from my previous post like I needed another strong tank general

Maybe I bought too much purple generals hahaha

I changed a lot of things for my rotation

1. I changed Meretskov for Vasily and I don’t know yet if I made a good choice because I wanted to changed meretskov for a tank general but I already have Osborn Chernyakhovsky Guderian and a max Armin so

2. I changed Wielding for Brooke (I think it is the best decision I have made so far wielding was too weak where i am now in the game and Brooke is very strong artillery general and can pair good with my Konev and Kluge)

3. I changed Yamamoto for Nimitz (my goal is to get God Nimitz one of the most underrated general in my opinion because I don’t want to spend money on Enseinhower plus god Nimitz is stronger than Yamamoto)

4. I changed Mikawa for Tamaguchi (Mikawa is disappointing really I thought he would have been stronger than that, and tamaguchi seems a lot stronger plus I can put him on a aircraft carrier is needed)

So ?

My inspiration was the 1960 Challenge Conquest

The map is in French Btw

What do you think ?

So I saw the new update that will occur in the end of June and I mean god MacArthur new mods and THE admiral kuznetzov etc is one of the best update I’ve seen so far (Paulus and wittman getting buffed is good)

I have my ideas and opinions and you’ll tell me if it’s a good idea :

1. The release of Vasilly

He we’ll be released as a medal generals in the shop and that’s nice but my opinion about it is : will he be a F2P Simo Haiya or he will have a different gameplay ? My problem is every time I see vassily on a Soviet troop he’s often a defensive troop and infantery is more like a glass canon nowadays (very good damage but low HP)

2. Pahlavi

They couldn’t get a better general in the shop because for me Pahlavi is good when you play Iran in 1950-1960 conquest hard mode and my hot take is that he will be a better messe (like bitrich) but we’ll see

3. World leader as generals

I put Fidel Castro in there as an example

We all know certain leaders of countries in world conqueror 4 were soldiers or generals like Churchill and Mao Zedong

And Fidel can be a good example because he fought against Batista’s Cuba in the 50’s and Cuba lack generals I know they will release Alberto but still

Btw they should have more Brazilian generals !!!

4. New army group Conquest : Chinese Civil War

Like they haven’t done an Asian theater yet about army group event so what about in china ? We could get like USA Japan Russia Iran India Thailand etc faction along with multiple army groups in china like ROC or CCP or Mandchukuo etc

Idk what you guys think 🤔
