I can build rifle corps that are double digit CV in 1942, sure...but only because they are way overstrength. They are not punching at their true TOE weight. They're acting like a 1943 rifle corps, at least until a few combats knocks off the padding. A genuine, non roid raging, pre October 1942 rifle corps at true TOE strength with 20,000 or less men is not impressive. 7ish CV. I'd rather have the 3 rifle divisions at that point. (Or even the two rifle divisions and brigade.) A post July tank corps is more like 6-7 CV with attachments. By autumn you can start seeing double digit CV tank corps, if you feed them a few wins and get them trained up. This is more than good enough to cause a rumpus somewhere. The ones in April are fairly weak due to the 42a TOE, but they'll go up from there naturally relatively fast, whereas with rifle corps you are working against the grain trying to make them act like a real 43 corps until almost the end of the year. The first real ToE for them doesn't hit until October.
