To quote Stalin (I think) "Quantity has a quality all it's own". You can win games by mass attacks (meaning vehicles charging forward), but probably with the new scoring system (not really new anymore) you would probably end up with a low win. You know, you can let the US have their M1s, they are pretty useless against massed infantry. Spread them out and march them forward. An M1 cost 250, a squad cost 25, that is 10 units he must kill to equal the loss of an M1. Keep about 2 or 3 hexes between squads to prevent splash and artillery suppression.

You can also use terrain too, stay in the low ground and woods to prevent his TI from seeing you. But then you make the big risk of releasing initiative to the enemy.
