Reinforcing the army should be a priority. You may want to disable reinforcements for the airforce and navy.

Pay attention to the terrain and focus on taking industrial centers.

If you've got Inf '36 tech, it may be possible to upgrade your guys to '31, division by division. The cost is low and it's quite fast unless it's the current tech level.
Also the airpower. You want to bomb the Frankists and not getting bombed by them. The AI so often forgets figters/ bombers/ both in Madrid or Valencia. There is a good chance you may grab a bonus, which would be helpful since for a long time you'll be facing odds which are not in your favor.

Have fun & save the Republic!
p.s.: sorry, know you didn't ask for advice/ opinions about this :D Share your startegy? :3

I sustained the civil war in positive warscore at the height of Madrid, maintainin Catalunya and Extremadura but lost a BIG BIG battle in Madrid basically from all my army to all his army and suffered a massive offensive from all the sides and i left xD
I won this a lot of times in HoI 3 lol

Eh, happens, bad guys are more and better equipped than your men & women. Now you have enough experience to win the next/ every Spanish Civil war :3

p.s.: it's a bit gamey, but... just before the rumble start, you may reposition the fleet to the only naval base that stays in your hands for sure (between Bacelona and Valencia). And for me a place for endless counterattacksa and retreats is the plains betweenMadrid and Zaragoza. In 3 out of 4 Spain games for me it's an endless seesaw.
Also another idea- upgrading not only the model, but also the type? The militia and especially the garrison look much better as Inf/ Cav (though it takes more time than plain upgade, that's true)

The Fascists benefit from a constant stream of supplies and relatively elite reinforcements from Italy and Germany.

Republican Spain's advantage is that it controls more IC. The fascists can't really research new technology effectively so if you can hold onto your IC and upgrade your army you have a chance. If you want to spam huge numbers of low quality troops consider People's war doctrine.

Once you win, you'll probably get beat up by Nazi Germany.
