As an alternative tactic: Use light mortars, heavy AT and one piece of heavy artillery.
Use of mortars (even more: successful mortars) leads the enemy to shell it soon with heavy artillery. Just keep your heavy artillery in the back, a bit to the side of and behind your mortar to be still hidden and out of range.
If the player is somewhat experienced he will shoot at max range (250m) at your mortar. Looking at the trajectory of the shelles and the ejected cartridges you quickly locate where he is firing from. Now move in your heavy artillery and shell him. Be cautious not to move into his last shells onto your mortar, though.
A mortar is like a honey-pot

.
BTW protect your artillery with a hidden AT gun against tanks (doesnt work against heavies head on), but medium tanks can be killed or at least damaged before they kill your artillery.
