November 1, 1939 : Campaigng in the West.

Yeah, unit upkeep in ETO is no joke. The Germans can hardly build any units until at least France falls. Even the Russians are largely restricted from new builds pre war due to upkeep costs, unless they choose to completely ignore tech investment.

Yes, this is fully intentional. Germany must husband her resources in the early part of the game or suffer consequences later. I also raised the upkeep for USSR. The USSR player will have the choice to go for either a less numerous amount of high quality units, or only basicaly trained hordes. Remember that you pay for high quality "twice". First when you raise the level, then each month due to higher upkeep.
