(1) As said above: pure AT divisions cannot fight.
(2) I like AT, it is really nice if used well. The only problem: TD is vastly more powerful and preferable in almost any way. Still, some nations can use them. FRA and SOV are good choises, depending on the JAP playstyle CHI can use a few as well.
A few suggested builds:
INF-HQ-AT-AT -> use your corps HQ as a mobile anti tank reserve.
INF-INF-AT-AT -> use a corps of these as an army or army corps reserve and bring them up where the enemy tanks show themselve. Can be a valuable addition for the SOV to delay or even defeat the german spearheads.
INF-INF-AT-ENG -> very powerful defence against armored spearheads. Excellent for the second line to contain an armored breakthrough. Vastly more powerful if in difficult terrain behind a river.
