if your campaign is only ending after 2 battles - then did your A0 get killed?. Getting "yourself" killed terminates the campaign.

As to troop ratios, "AI tank heavy" does not mean a fleet of panzers with no supporting infantry, it just means more tanks (generally a company buy instead of a platoon, if it has the points). Try buying an Italian force with computer buy with and without the switch on (do it about 10 times with each switch setting for a representative sample).

What was the value of your core + supports? - The OPFOR will get 2.5 times that in an assault, and if Italian with lower morale and training than your troops, that means the same points will buy more - perhaps 1.5 to 2 rifle coys to one British one. Plus many Italian rifle sections are rifle only, no LMG - rather cheaper.

Armies will break at about 75% destroyed or in rout of the on-map forces and all victory hexes owned by the other side and none of thier forces near enough to an enemy-held hex to contest it.
