I understood , but this won't be THE breakthrough. I will follow the Manstein Plan, and making havoc in Belgium will lure the French to rush to her defense. (I have trouble in English with that. Is it her or its defense?)
Thank you for the English lesson (I was asking for it )This is going to be interesting - I never really could reproduce Sichelschnitt in the old HoI2, because of the map layout. Perhaps it's more possible in DH.
The historical thing would be enough for that...
Another thing: Still being a DH noob, I don't get what's the purpose of LARM in the early game, as its soft attack is barely above that of INF. Wouldn't it be better to make a breakthrough with massed MOT?
Unfortunaly, combined arms bonus is disabled in DH, so combine ARM and MOT in army corps is now useless : you won't have the great speed advantage of MOT, and the toughness of ARM will be dilute. So it's better to make separate armies of ARM and armies of MOT.
Be also aware that panzer leader bonus only works with LARM or ARM and don't work with MOT. For MOT, 2 talents can be usefull :
- Offensive doctrine (bonus when attacking)
- Logistics Wizards, gives even more speed to MOT.
Obviously, MOT are made for speed, so don't attach any brigade (exept engineer) on them.

To those who don't see the unfolding trap, I have only one thing to say: The French army is recruiting! :closedeyes:
But hurry up, it won't last.

I have 4 divisions of them, so it is probable that I will use some of them. Actually, I have a pre-planned operation for 2 of them. For the two others, it will depends of the needs or of the opportunities. I will try to keep them for when I really have an advantage in using them, that is why I didn't capture Brussels with them since I had another choice. But I won't use them to capture an undefended Paris, if the possibility arises.Paras?
