You play a country that can't afford Tanks, and want a cheap breakthrough offensive* division with high Soft Attack? *(edit: replace breakthrough with offensive)
Then take a look at this Template:
(Here with 1939 Artillery, 1939 Infantry equipment and Superior Firepower Right until the 5th Tec (Regimental Combat Teams) )
This divison has 393 Soft Attack at a cost of 1789. That's 220 Soft Attack per 1000 IC. I don't think there is a divison with 1939 tec with higher Soft Attack per IC and >30 Org.
[with Superior Firepower Left it is a bit stronger (+2.5 Soft Attack) but I think for other units the right path is better]
14/4 has 323 Soft Attack with 1561 cost -> 207 Soft Attack per 1000 IC
4/4 is a bit stronger per IC cost (224) but has only 219 Soft Attack
If you can afford a bit more IC and want to do quick encirclements after breakthrough you can motorize it:
But it's a lot more expensive now. 104 Soft Attack per 1000 IC
Or with another small 1936 research (called motorize rocket artillery and found in the upper right corner of motorized) you can do this:
Over 400 Soft-Attack and 12 km/h speed with 1939 Tec. And still below 4000 IC cost. 108 Soft Attack per 1000 IC
When you have a bit more time (or rush research) you can get this: (1943 Tec)
303 Soft Attack per 1000 IC!
And if you research 1946 Rocket Technology it looks like this:
326 Soft Attack per 1000 IC! (Each Tier of Rocket Technology adds +5% Soft Attack to Rocket Artillery)
And motorized:
789.5 Soft Attack and 12 km/h and still only 4000 IC. 197 Soft Attack per 1000 IC
