This allows me to make pushes into certain areas without the risk of my armored divisions being encircled and lost as the motorized can quickly plug any holes. If I am to use 8 combat width then I'm probably better off using support art/at.Generally, I have a decent infantry division template which allows me to spam them in order to hold a line (against USSR for example), a handful (~15) of armored divisions to break through in certain areas, and about ~45 motorised divisions which follow the armor and defend the new territory until the infantry can fill it in.

So let's say I have a 10 division army, I'd attack with 5 at the first until they begin to waver, then I'll switch with the other 5 while the units that were just in combat reorganize and so on.Īnd yeah sometimes I use heavy armor in mountains just to wear down the defenders a bit and then send in infantry to clean them up.Īs for the line vs support artillery I'll take a look at the stats and see what's would be more sensible to use. Ohh I see, that's a good idea! That way I can keep presure until they break. You might even get away with using armor in the mountains (for low manpower losses) if you have enough CAS in the area (CAS don't care how fortified your enemy is).

So you'll need as many spare divisions as your supply situation and IC would reasonably allow. Trick with taking mountains and such (other than getting around and ignoring until they starve) is to press the attack so that enemy won't re-org and new divisions won't fortify. As for exact number: see how much line artillery would give you compared to support artillery and how high penalty you'll get for mountain attack. Originally posted by Sir Edward XII:Thank you for the detailed reply! So from what I understand im better off using AT and Artillery on the support column rather than attaching them directly to the brigade? And using mountaineers to fill up the combat width? Generally - yes (especially in smaller width divisions).
