Rather than go on a rant, may I suggest you try some of Hans' battles and operations for the early war and PTO. At The Scenario Depot under CMAK.
Small Operations, May 15th, 1940
Play as Germans vs AI lots of armor, French do not roll over.
Small Battles, Tank Charge at Tenaru
Play as USA vs AI. A few tanks.
You might change your mind about other types of battles. Maybe not.
Not everyone has the same style. If you like these, there are more. And Korea, Vietnam too
