One of the most effective and safe ways to capture high fuel and munition points is to make 2-3 sandbags next to the point, get your squad in cover and then click on the point. That way all your men are in cover and that helps them take a point underfire. This is mostly effective with volks and grenadiers, because u can win vs charging rifles and cap the point. It takes you no more than 3-4 secs to build the sandbags. It's a good time investment early and mid game.
The one real bad thing about building sandbags is that if you lose your position, you give your enemy an excelent defence opportunity, making it harder for you to reclaim your losts. To avoid this, you can wire the opposing side of where your men are standing. That way the enemy can not benefit from your sandbags.
As Scorched Earth you have Roadblocks, which combine Tanktraps and sandbags in one. They are by far the most effective way to create a chokepoint since they can't be run over even by the heaviest tank. The green cover they give is similiar to the protection offered by sandbags, making the most generalised defences in the game. In team games, combined with a wehrmacht mg42, this can be a position that can't be overrun. Similar to sandbags, combine with wire and you have the perfect defense.
