What I do to deal with mass micromanagement in Singleplayer missions is I gather up my single squad of men, maybe 4-6 troops and a tank or 2, I gear them out and play the mission and focus just on them, then let the rest of the AI do what it will do with the remaining forces. I Direct control and babysit just my one squad. I gather ammo on them and all in all win the mission with a very small amount of men. I realized the nightmare of having to control the whole army when I first started playing this game and worked out a way to deal with the microing and still win. So far, so good.
As for MP Microing thats where it pays to play with smaller money pools, you wont have as much and therefore it is easier to deal with them. The Helmets, dont worry to much about them, I gave up on Helmets awhile ago, they only stop 1 round and seem to stay on thier heads for about 10 seconds.....I just said forget it. Ammo isnt to much of a deal b/c the troops either will die or you just plain wont fire all of it before the game ends, most likely they will die.....
