Mine is not even Germany, its actually USSR '33. Not to hate on the german game but after beating SU with their cheating free divs so many times its upsetting (really, you've lost 24 million men and probably countless civilian lives and you still get free divs? No tnx). I actually enjoy USSR since its the greatest feeling in the world to get attacked unexpectedly by Germany in '40, where your infantry cant scrape German tanks and 1 of their divs can almost reliably push back 2 or 3 of yours. You're really grinding for time until the germs run out of fuel for the Panzers and until '42, where they will finally run out of MP and you can finally begin the counteroffensive. The feeling and joy of planning Maskirovka and preparing a mass attack on the germans to signal their Stalingrad will never not be an incredible feeling.
My greatest moment, which i still have in a savefile, is from the scenario stated above. In late '40, the germs just go full blitzkrieg on my ass, with about 30 arm divs and about 350 other divs, of which about 50 were allied ones. My army was, no joke, still moving into position, and i lost a few overrun divs here and there, until finally winter came full force and german attacks slowed down just enough for me to get tons of ARM and INF with the occasional HQ sprinkled in. '41 is another slaughterfest and i get pushed back north to Leningrad, 2 provinces short of Moscow and the Dniepr in the south holding back the main german forces. Finally German manpower runs out and i plan my Stalingrad: i gather about 30 or 40 armored divs (out of like about 100, so 1/3 of my armored force) in the baltics, launch pinning attacks against the german center/central south and, when the germs sends their tanks south, BAM! deep pen onto Riga. In the end, about 35 german divs get pinned and eventually destroyed, even though they almost broke out of the encirclement over 3 times. After that it was a sweet and bloody ride all the way to Paris.
