Infantry 27W
When you need a frontline that pushes rather than holds, this can be a decent option when you're looking at infantry templates. The 27-width hits the sweet spot for plains, hills and forest tiles. Two of these fit cleanly into a 54-width engagement without penalty, letting you concentrate serious firepower without overcrowding. The org at 37.5 is not great but OK. Avoid feeding this division into sustained back-to-back engagements without rotation. The field hospital support company helps offset manpower bleed on longer campaigns, which matters at 11.9K manpower per division. Supply cost of 1.44 can hurt a bit. This means your logistics need to be in order before committing these to a major offensive. Don't push through broken supply lines. This division will degrade fast without proper support. Best used for: Main offensive pushes on prepared frontlines, coordinated breakthroughs alongside armour, sustained attacks in varied terrain, and any campaign where you need infantry that can genuinely crack a defensive line rather than just probe it. Not suited for: Supply-constrained theatres, prolonged attritional combat without rotation, or facing heavy armour without tank support alongside. Piercing at 4.1 won't stop any serious tank division.
Mountaineers & Artillery 33W
Juicy terrain modifiers to go alongside strong stats. Any combination of mountaineers and artillery can form a powerful overall offensive template. This template shines in: Offensive push on mountain and hill fronts, jungle and forest campaigns, fortified defensive lines, river crossing offensives, and any theatre where terrain is the deciding factor.
Basic Garisson
The smallest useful division in the game, and arguably the most IC-efficient unit you'll ever build. This isn't a combat template. Its entire purpose is suppressing resistance in occupied territories, and for that job a single cavalry battalion can do a decent job. The logic is pure economics: one cavalry battalion costs almost nothing to produce and consumes virtually no supply. If you're looking for the cheapest garisson template that can do its job, this is the one.
