Imho the main issue in most of WW1/WW2 scenarios is rushing Russia is just too much lucrative which eliminates other Axis/CP options.
That's why some maps implement special rules to offset it. Domination 1914 NML is the most successfull one to cancel the obvious lucrativeness of rushing Russia to expand other options thanks to conscripts.
Other option could be decreasing Axis/CP income and randomly spamming a few German subs in the Atlantic each round.
