Guest Manson1975 Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 Commanders: War makes hero, on the battlefield, only the strongest and bravest commanders can survive and bring their troops home safely, throughout the history of WWII, many commanders stood out for their military talents, their brutality, their personality and bravery. Today, let us take a look at some of the most famous commanders of WWII. George Smith Patton, Jr. George Patton is one of the most famous commanders in the U.S. army, on November 11, 1885, Patton was born to a family with extensive military background, in the year 1942, during Operation Torch, Patton led his troops into the invasion of Casablanca, where he later established himself as an effective commander, he commanded the U.S. Seventh Army during the invasion of Sicily, led the invasion of Normandy in June 1944, and after the Battle of Bulge, he led the Third Army into Nazi Germany by the end of war. Alexander Novikov Born on November 19th, 1900, Novikov was the Chief Marshal of the Soviet Air Force, he was the man who has piloted Red Air Force through the dark days into the present limelight, Time magazine calls him: master of tactical air power. Novikov worked specifically on the improvement tactic and front line coordination. During the siege of Stalingrad, under Novikov’s command, German Air Force lost 130 planes, in later battles such as Battle of Kursk and Battle of Königsberg, Novikov and his Air Force played an important role. Chester William Nimitz Born February 2nd, 1885, Chester Nimitz was an icon of the U.S. Navy, in his early years he was the authority of submarine in the Navy, in the year 1941 he was promoted by Roosevelt to commander-in-chief, he slowed down the Japanese invasion in the Pacific ocean, and participated in many famous battles like Battle of the Coral Sea, Battle of Midway and Guadalcanal Campaign, because of the victories he brought, he was deeply admired by the American people, and in memory of his contribution, the Nimitz Class Aircraft Carrier is named after him. Otto Moritz Walter Model Walter Model was born in January 24th, 1891, he was famous for his brutality, defensive warfare, in 1942, due to his tenacious fighting style and his dedication to the Nazi, Hitler considered him as his best field commander and repeatedly tasked him with retrieving desperate situations. After Model was defeated at the Battle of the Bulge, his relationship with Hitler broke down. In April 1945, with the Third Reich's defeat imminent, Model committed suicide rather than be captured and stand trial for war crimes. Raymond Ames Spruance Born on July 3rd, 1886, Spruance was a U.S. Navy admiral during WWII, Spruance commanded U.S. naval forces during two of the most significant naval battles that took place in the Pacific theater, the Battle of Midway and the Battle of the Philippine Sea. The Battle of Midway was the first major victory for the United States over Japan and is seen by many as the turning point of the Pacific war. Spruance was nicknamed "electric brain" for his calmness even in moments of supreme crisis, a reputation enhanced by his successful tactics at Midway. Now you might ask, why did we specifically select and introduce these five commanders here? Well, we have a big surprise waiting for you in our next big update, please stay tuned.

Waffles Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 We can choose countries? And have a confidante depending on which country? Or maybe commander boosts? Where you decide your play style and a commander is assigned accordingly. And they provide some boost? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirNathan Posted September 3, 2016 Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 Wait...so these commanders are possibly being added in some way?? If they are perhaps they determine what troops you use? Eg. Nimitz will be specialized in navy thus if using him you get better ship stats? Very interesting to see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrTakeYoCity Posted September 4, 2016 Report Share Posted September 4, 2016 Aw where's Erwin Rommel? He should be listed for his superior blitz tactics and use of fast offensive combat! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blitzlegga Posted September 4, 2016 Report Share Posted September 4, 2016 It's obvious that submarines are being added to the game. I just hope it doesn't cost 1billion barrels of oil to produce them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirNathan Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 It makes sense if they add these generals in some way. Rommel is in the cup battles already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
