I pick Patton, Zhukov, Mannerheim

Zhukov singlehandedly made sure that the Japanese would not fight Russia in late WW2

Patton and Mannerheim was just effective

Question: Is the battle we fight anytime near Mrs. Rommel's birthday?

Also, there are 9 generals. Why does the other side get 6 if we only get 3 and we are equal strength?

You get the best 3, the opponent gets the worst 6. It's for game balance to make it a fair fight.

BanΓ©r, Torstensson and Wrangel.

I pick Douglas MacArthur three times. If I remember correctly he was pretty pro nuke. I don't plan on winning, but you'll always remember me losing.

That's exactly my pick too, just MacArthur, and let him do his plan of "an irradiated sea of cobalt". What do you mean we're not in NonCredibleDefense?
