I am aware that:
1. everything works against the a.i.
2. in MP everything depends on how attentive the opponent is
With that out of the way, here's the idea which I haven't tested yet:
- Build MIC only for the first two years or so
- tech rush light tanks
- get army xp via exercise and volunteers in Spain
- build a ton of light tanks with lvl 5 engines
- mobile warfare doctrine, right, right
- ministers that boost speed
- build lots of fighters and CAS
Since light tanks only cost metal which Germany has an abundance of, you shouldn't need too many CIC for trade.
Now the tank template could either be:
- all out light tanks for maximum speed with the downside of low org
- light tank + mot (in which case the light tank would get as much armour as possible until it matches truck speed)
Typically you fight the 1939/40 campaigns mostly with infantry and light tanks and only need medium tanks in 1941 for Barbarossa.
So it's necessary to start WW2 in early 1939 and take everything from France to Poland in that year.
Launching Barbarossa with some 15,000 to 20,000 light tanks (wild guess) in spring of 1940, with tanks that might reach speeds of 16 kmh.
It's vital of course to defeat the Soviets in 1940 or at least cripple them enough.
After a successful Barbarossa it doesn't matter if your tanks are outdated anyways.
I'm hoping for the fighter/CAS combo to be the wrecking ball for my light tanks.
What do you think about the idea? And rather max speed low org light tank-only or mixed with trucks?
