Do automatic promotions work? I see that Rundstedt is the only FM that's been auto-promoted. I had to promote two of the old guys just so I could attack with full force when needed. I have 3 more old guard generals. (all thats left)

I'm in the midst of the invasion of France and I now have the following generals:
3 level 7
15 level 6
13 level 5

Of these, 1 is FM 11 are Lt. Gens, the rest Majors.

If I give my last 3 Generals to the Huns, will SOMEONE get promoted? I just need some Generals.

It sure seems like MJ and LT generals gain XP much faster than FMs do. In the time some of the guys have gone up 2 or 3 levels, Rundstedt has all of 75 Experience (I guess he gets 1 XP per day of battle)
I've even had one of those old guard Generals go up a level just before I promoted him myself. I expect he'll be sent to Hungary before he gets another level.

i remember right the land generals promote the way they are supposed to.

it's the air and navy leaders that do not. they only autopromote when they are in the leader pool.
