Achtung!This guide was written in 2016 and has not been updated for the current version of the game. I usually don't use REC, because I find that it is very hard to verify their impact (even more so if you already have a leader with higher skill level).
It also depends a lot on the tactics you have available. In defines.lue it stats: 'RECONSKILLIMPACT = 5, - how many skillpoints is a recon advantage worth when picking a tactic.' So why not huge units with a width of 40?
That's what I'm playing with right now on my first Germany run. I went with the Superior firepower doctrine rather than blitz. And I've added large amounts of art or sp-art to all of my units giving me 700-1000 soft attack (after bonuses) I'm only 6 months into Barbarossa but it seems to be working well so far.My idea was to minimalize manpower losses with very industrially expensive units. And so far it seems to be working as planned as the Russians are suffering about 10 to 1 losses.

Click to expand.If you exceed the frontage, all your units in combat will suffer a -3% penalty per exceess (percentage?) of frontage.The game usually doesn't reinforce with a unit that would exceed the frontage if it would do more harm than good. Still, by sticking to 20 frontage divisions you can avoid exceeding the frontage completely (outside of some combat tactics) that will result in much more consistent performance.In your case, the unit would stay in reserve and do nothing. But keep in mind: While reserves have no impact on the combat until they reach the frontlines, some tactics will only trigger if you have reserves and/or full frontage.
