Thx for the advice. I will try that. I guess to be specific is with the US how do i maximize their effectiveness in the early game? When I do 1v1 I find myself overwhelmed. By the time I get my liutenant they would already have armor.
You can try getting zooks on a couple of your riflemen asap, zooks can take out a flack half track if you ambush it. I've noticed that a lot of USF players take too long to get at weapons that can deal with the FHT.
