I'm really enjoying the game to be honest,  it is very interesting that i don't have limitless ammo and have to be mindful of how much i use, as well as i can use my snpier very effectively to take down the enemy with a mg team to back him up.   i always try to grab a german mg 42 for my squad as soon as possible to allow good supression fire and then use my sniper to pick them off.  and antitank gredades on a sniper rock Smiley   

The way the terrain especially the buildings get destroyed is more realistic in my mind as well.  Not to say i don't like COH but it is refreshing to play a game that has ai that is intelligent and that you need to really use the terrain to win and not rush.   Thats the biggest issue with coh i have, that the individual unit ai is so disasterous, if the fow ai could be meshed with coh it might improve.

I also like the point system for re-inforcement of your battle force in multiplayer, might be somthing to look at for EIR maybe,  say you score pop cap for kills or somthing that allows you to bring in troops but you never loose your current score just can add to it. 

anyway great game:)

The main things I like are towable weapons, recrewable vehicles, realistic LOS, more realistic range/damage (in mods), and the cover system.

If only things like rearming and refueling didn't require stupid amounts of micromanagement and if unit selection/movement was as easy as CoH, the game would be awesome.

the main part of the game put me off: if i multi select then they become a team... and it is an unessisary hassle to unteam them then choose who you want for the next thing.

Lol my guy throws a grenade and kills 3 guys. A PaK sees and shoots me,  hits the sandbags protecting it and blows itself up.

I love the funny moments in this game.
