I've been playing the game for a few months now and was wondering which armored unit is the best: Main Battle Tank or Armored Fighting Vehicle.

"Best" is conditional, BUT in most conditions and for the cost, most people agree that AFVs are the better value.

and technically if what to unock marine aphib assult probably the best... basically AFV but has Recon and can land and where. Good even if not using with marines"And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him "

Well if you really have to choose between the 2 then the afv ofc; just because it's not as expensive and doesnt get rekt by terrain modifiers as hard as mbt
but lets be honest
ideally you wouldnt have to build either of themI am The Baseline for opinions -

If then you don't use armored at all, what do you use instead? Should I be building up a ton of infantry and strike fighters?

Works for me .. but your Milage may vary and if going SF really have to be active to be effective. if you just want to log in once a day ; grab a big stack and roll the dice sending them on attack then not going to work."And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him "

Ok so I should focus on infantry and support (with strike fighter). Should I use mechanized infantry or airborne or just stick to motorized?

In general there 4 meaningful tactics:
- artillery build
- chopper build
- striker build
- navy build
If you feel like 'fooling around', you could also go for the air assault build, I guess.
If you play in a team, there might be also the air support build. -
ok thanks

Yet, it is how I win most of my maps. -
Main Battle Tank best terrain fields, worst it's urban and mountain areas.
AFV best terrain it's urban areas.Guns are always loaded. -
I always build infantry. No armored.
Very satisfying to march into a country with max level infantry and crush them. -

Tanks get too expensive, afv's are a lot cheaper if u had to pick. I micromanage units so i usually feel no need for any sort of armored, but i do love afv/marines.

I never use MBT unless I’m in Eastern Doctrine. I think for most purposes, you want AFVs (but as many people pointed out both are generally not the best to use as your main component of your military.) I generally build some sort of token armor force just in case it’s required however.

I just got done invading thr main homeland of the second best player in the game being the 3rd best player and I used mostly AFVs and infantry with only 2 stacks of MBTs. The AFVs in my experience on this were highly more effective in my invasion and ultimately led to my success then the MBTs did. I stupidly used only SAMs in my invasion for air coverage and didn't bother to bring any MAAVs in due to never seeing any helos in combat previously all that much which ultimately led to the killing of 15 out of 40 support units but overall the AFVs have better air defenses then the MBTs do, they can be airlifted and move quicker which to me is far more important as it allows me to move quicker and reinforce my lines better, and lastly they cost less to manufacture and research. So to me the AFVs are superior to MBTs in almost every aspect
