One other thing which you might find helps in the long campaign. Try using either cavalry or motorcycle troops(at least 2 platoons worth. I use them in the opening stages to scout and grab objectives or set up ambushes in towns and woods. once contact is made I either pull them back to form a reserve to use on breakthroughs or if I find a hole in the line send them as deep strike troops to ferret out the enemy artillery. When using them as a reserve hold them until the enemy is breaking and then use them as pursuit troops against routing troops. A friend of mine an I are doing a joint long campaign where we each picked a core force and set up a battle plan and each is tasked with accomplishing their objectives. I have a slightly larger scout force which includes 2 motorcycle platoons and more scouts and snipers. He opted for a slightly larger number of tanks. Our armor units are performing about the same with his a slight bit ahead of mine on number of kills but my motorcycles units are way ahead in experience and kills. We just finished our 4th battle in Poland and are moving on into France and my cycle units which have survived have accumulated a total of 73 kills. Of this 1 squad has 28 and another 22 kills. I takes a lots of finesse to keep them alive but they can be really deadly if used correctly.

Good luck
