What is your favorite build to field?

Feel free to post them for any countries you want, I'm just curious as to what people like the best around here.

I recently, finally, found a Soviet army that works well. I'm pretty unskilled with them, so it was nice to figure this one out. The tanks are best placed in cover, and never lose their attack dice or movement capabilities if needed. The partisans platoon generally disrupts all the infantry and their ammo dump, and the rest of it just attacks however it can. I've also played it without the hero and 2 IS-3's in place of the IS-2 vets. The IS-2's are actually better because of the veteran abilities.

IS-2 Veteran - 67 (x2)
Ammo Dump - 10
Soviet Partisans - 23
-1x Cossack Captain
-3x Communist Partisans
-1x Fanatical Sniper
Soviet Union Assault Detachment - 17
-6x PPSh-41 SMG
-1x Soviet Grenadiers
Hero of the Soviet Union - 8
Maxim M1910 MG - 7 (x2)
Soviet Grenadiers - 4

(expanded rules 210)

Tiger I - 56 (x2)
Ammo Dump - 10
Hungarian Infantry Company - 24
-1x Tenacious Officer
-8x 8mm Huzagol 35M
-1x 37mm Light Antitank Gun
SS-Panzergrenadier - 7 (x3)
Grizzled Veteran - 8 (x2)
Veteran Fallschirmjager - 10
20mm Flak 38 - 7

(200)

The idea behind this build is for the flak to sit with the ammo dump, the infantry to creep up with the tanks, and the veteran fallschirmjager to drop behind enemy lines without a line of a sight, and on the following turn drop both grizzled veterans into his hex and move them up together behind the enemy.

Sherman VC 17-Pounder - 27 (x2)
Supermarine Spitfire Mk. I - 15
Ammo Dump - 10
Canadian Infantrymen - 3 (x6)
Intrepid Hero - 8

(expanded rules 105)

I've used this Canadian one a couple of times, it worked exceptionally well against Italy.

-1x Inspiring Lieutenant
-2x SMLE No. 4 Rifle

Kuomintang Machine-Gun Team - 6
Chinese Infantry Company - 26
-1x Kuomintang Officer
-10x Kuomintang Riflemen

This is a Chinese army, that I tried to keep realistic. The P-40 representing the Flying Tigers and the UK infantry representing the British troops fighting the Japanese on the asian mainland.
