It's day 4, I've got 51 divisions up. I'm planning on invading Mexico. Light tank and motorized infantry spam is really nice. I know artillery is really good for chipping, but I like blitzing through my opponents with 25 tank divisions. They're really fast and get the job done. I think armored cars are also a good option and I'll probably mix them in with my light tanks. The troop buff from Axis is also very helpful.
