Germany - What's your military composition?
Just curious as to what other people build. I normally make four armies, five divisions per corps, of 3INF+1Art (just did rocket art, that didn't go so well), as well as a panzer army, 3 divisions per corp, of 2MedARM+ENG+SPART. Then I'll normally have some marines (normally just a few corps, sometimes an army), maybe some motorized, and that's about it. I don't make much in terms of air power, and my navy is a secondary priority until I conquer Russia.

What do you guys make?

For my Prussia Unit I make every province bordering Poland have atleast 1 division and then my composition is 3INF+1AC+1Arty(Optional). For my units bordering Russia/eastern Poland, I have the same as the Prussia Units. For the rest I use Mech. INF and Motorized Arty

Oh. I have a few MedART+3SITKR+2JRIEKR.

That usually works best for me. :)

poland:
50 armor (2arm+1mot+1spart)

France + BeNeLux:

50 infantry (3inf+1art) (and later the 50 armor from poland)

UK:
25 marines (4mar)
25 infantry (3inf+1art)
25 Larmor (2Larm+1mot+1spart)

I start in 36 making 2BC+2HC+4LC+15Transp.(this give me a navy, and speed up research)
Before I go to war I take my marines on the navy and send them to newcastle.

I also make an army for maintaining control, with 50 infantry(3inf+pol) + 25 motorised(3mot+ac).

I go in fours, so 4 armies of 4 corps of 4 divisions but then I add a specialty corps to each army. So basically 4 armies, 5 corps, 4 divisions. I typically play as minors so I have lots of infantry and always use combos of 3INF+1AT and 4INF or 4INF+1AT if I have Superior Firepower.

For my specialty corps I usually have 2 Armies with Armor corps and 1 with Marines and another with Paratroopers. For my Marines I usually have Superior Firepower before getting them and use 4MAR+1ENG.
