I usually attach one Arty to the vanilla divisions (Soviet: 3 inf. German: 2 inf. etc.) But I rather use SP Arty for speed, so I produce only SP when I have that tech. I prefer heavy firepower. Just like the Soviets did. Towards the end of the war they would Arty-strike almost everything

Good discussion.

After reading it, I'm going to make a few corps that will be 4 infantry divisions of 2xInf +2xArt. I always have trouble attacking into France's wooded northeast. I think this might be a good work-around.

Normally as Germany I'm religiously 2xInf +1xArt. I'll still remain that way.

But now that the AI can invade next to ports, figuring out how to defend the coast is important, and I'm wondering if I should do AA or AT for my units defending a port.

In 1.2, I would build 3xGAR+ 1xArt, and I think I still might do this, because it's cheap, and can hold a province for a bit to allow reinforcements.

I have 2 Gar + 1 Arty/AT + 1 AA
