Commander

A Commander is a general who leads troops into battle. In World Conqueror 2, Commander is an upgrade that units can receive that increases their combat ability. How much the combat ability is increased depends on the rank of the Commander. The Commander's rank can be increased by spending Medals on the Commander in the Commander menu of World Conqueror 2.

Each country can only have one active Commander at a time. If a Commander unit is killed, that player must wait several turns before having the option to promote another unit with Commander.

In World Conqueror 2, computer player Commanders appear to have control over their entire country's military operations. The Commanders of other countries will converse with the player if the unit they command is destroyed, or occasionally if the player invades the territory of an allied Commander. Commanders will also sometimes converse with the player in Campaign missions.

The Commanders of the major warring countries of World Conqueror 2 are historical figures who played a large role in either World War II or the Cold War. Most countries will not have a specific Commander, and instead will have a silhouetted figure where the Commander would normally appear. These silhouetted Commanders do not engage in dialogue.

Commanders reappear in World Conqueror 3 with an expanded role.
