I am new to flames of war but I am interested in building a 29th IN DIV army (from pg 218 turning tide).

Company HQ w/ Bazooka teams - 25
2X Rifle Platoons - 310
2X Anti-Tank Platoons with Bazooka teams- 170
Tank Destroyer Platoon, 4X m10s - 320
Field Artillery Battery 105mm - 140
Field Artillery Batter 155mm w/trucks and tractors - 215
Anti-Aircraft Platoon 2X M1 Bofors - 90
Priority Air Support, p47s - 190
Aerial Observation Post - 40

Total = 1,500.

This list has major advantages in artillery, air, and AT support being able to hammer the enemy from a distance. However it lacks some maneuverability and heavy armor. I hope to make up for this with the combined fire support of the air and artillery, and moving my infantry aggressively toward the OBJs with support of the Tank Destroyers. I would appreciate any opinions/advice.

If you have proper expectations of the Arty -- meaning, pinning and restricting movement -- then this is fine. I am concerned about which units will be actually killing stuff. Do you see the M10s doing that?
