Here's my France 1950 guide.
European front: Don't push, instead rebuild the Maginot Line but remember to extend it to Belgium. Also build a line of fort from Lyon to Marseilles. Hold on until the cavalry that is USA arrives. They should be arriving at about turn 10.Then start to push towards the low countries when the Soviet generals are gone, reduced to atoms and the ht and ra spam are gone. After the low countries, push towards the Scandinavia region and finally South towards Poland and the Balkans. After that meet up with the African front to eliminate the Middle East countries.
African front: Send all troops to the city on the border of Egypt. The Soviet territory right next to the neutral country would be taken by the British. Send a division if they are struggling. After that the US and British forces would rush towards Cairo. Let them fight while you take Alexandria. By now the Balkan countries would start spamming towards your position. Build coastal arty while attacking Cairo. After that maintain defensive position until the European front ended the Balkan spam. Attack Iran and Iraq then push the Soviet.
Asian front: Hit Thailand with everything you got. Hanoi should have fallen into enemy hands by then. Build another fort line from Bangkok to South Vietnam. Same with Europe and Africa. Wait until most of their troops commit suicide on your forts then push into Commie China and Japan. After that push into Siberia and Kazakhstan. Kamchatka should be taken by the US forces since they have an American to rescue. After that just push into the heart of the Soviet Union.
Tips: Nukes and Stealth Fighters are your best friend Use spare funds to build super arty after finishing the Maginot lines. Gens used: Guderian and Konev

Only Bradley made it through on 25. Most troops seemed to refuse to land

Haven't retried yet, but at the end Bradley, the only guy to be helping, ended up going in the water.

France 1950 is actually more fun than USA- but I used a slightly different strategy.
Africa: put Leeb and Rommel on the starting howitzer and two-stacked heavy tank, Rundstedt on starting triple stack motorized infantry, rush Egypt. Cairo should fall by turn 4-5- spawn Arnold in a triple stacked rocket arty and take Damascus and Jerusalem with strategic bombers.
Asia: put Horton on starting cruiser, spawn Nimitz in HMS Prince of Wales (special unit, hits land units HARDDD). Bombard Thailand, no need for ground troops at all... leave them alone. Spawn Guderian and Konev in triple stacked heavy tank and rocket arty respectively, at first send both to deal with China then send Guderian west and Konev East.
Use missiles and strategic bombers from turn 15 (you will hardly need ground troops anymore in Asia- use the missiles and nukes in Chinese cities and produce some from your original cities in France too).
P.S. I did not touch the troops and starting gens in France at all until the WTO were at my doorstep- then I started spawning tanks/arty periodically just to hold them off while I wrecked them from the other side...
