Rules only based on honor rarely work. Some people just want to ignore them and some people simply didn't see them. The times they work they are either very simple (example: play as Germany, make only light tanks) or you play with friends willing to read and understand the rules.

 

Games are played based upon the bounds of their mechanics and applying arbitrary limits usually doesn't end well.

if you want to prevent tank rushes, I suggest to multiplicate the price of vehicles and defense buildings x3 and aircraft x2 and slow down the speed of vehicles a wee bit. makes infantry an option in gameplay.

 

Or just fix the broken mechanics that the units exploit or fix the units themselves.

But then we're going into full modifying than small changes.
