@MayDay:
What about tanks vs. artillery on defense? After an amphibious assault in Europe (Normandy for example), Germany and Italy will retaliate. Tanks are better on defense than artillery. Is the extra cost for tanks worth it?
Mmm, a tank is only abit better than an inf for double the price…
If your (remaining) force is large enough to withstand an attack it might be, but if you just got a few units left, then i think it’s pity about the tank.
I guess it depends on if you want to sting or actually take and keep the territory. And on the strength of the coming counter attack.
Finally my choice for tank or inf will depend on the budget i have a USA, if changing a tank to an inf means i can send 1 more full transporter, i’ll probably chose for that. It’s often a counting puzzle and that makes me a cheapskate
