No need to get mad bro. I may have worded it wrong, but the point I was trying to make is this: how is "Build infantry lots, lots of infantry," a criticism of the game? A tank is more than IC expensive fancy infantry, it's faster and drains less manpower, both matter. Besides, armies were largely foot infantry for a large part of the war, especially on the losing side. I understand that upgrades are wasted IC, especially after 36' infantry, but having an armored core of specialists is far from "just build infantry and never upgrade it." Especially when you can focus upgrade IC, if you use it, on specific divisions. My assumption was that the previous poster had played neither 3 or 2, but had played 4. Thus the comparison. I'm in complete agreement that 3 fixed everything except the map projection and modding. Building your own order of Battle is one of the best parts if any HoI game ever made.
