Better not have 10 man squads, or at least have a cover system that works for that.

That doubles the chance that there are 9 guys are staying in green cover and one idiot who's trolling around in the open field and your squad gets instantly supressed. -.- |

It irks quite a lot when playing Dawn of War with Imperial guard. 12 men, 5 only takes cover no matter what you do. - if you are lucky that is...
But yeah hopefully a cover system that enables 10 guys to perfectly seek for cover.

Because a forum post should be like a woman's skirt. Long enough to cover the subject material, but short enough to keep things interesting.

With the odd chance of the squad shooting the commisar and retreating off the map  |

"You can always count on Americans to do the right thing—after they've tried everything else." The officer is considerably better than a riflemen squad at carrying weapons. Officers have good accuracy so they will hit most targets. |

Modify the reqeust of the cover status of a entity. Instead of requesting if any member of a squad is in red cover, request the status of every single member of a squad and calculate a new average cover value for the squad and add specific weights for each cover type. Then compare the new average cover value with some thresholds. Something like: Green/Green/Green/Green/Red = Green; Green/Green/Green/Yellow/Yellow = Green; Green/Green/Green//Yellow/Red = Yellow; Green/Green/Yellow/Red/Red = Red; |

Wel they said new improved cover system, maybe that problem wont exist and your men will bunch and be taken out with a single mortar.
Or russians may be weak and hard to suppress but be alot.

Dafuq man, don't ask for proof if you'll refuse it if it's not in your favor, logic fallacy for the bloody win.

Or Better: Instead of calculating the resulting cover type, make a LUT for every infantry entity and compare the actual status per member with this table to determine the cover status of the whole squad. It's a bit of work for larger squads, but you can balance each squad seperatly. |

- I heard some new stuff about a dynamic weather system, if it starts snowing for example, troups will move slower in the snow as on the roads.
- There will be a "Man of War" line of sight system
- Stealing enemie vehicles... .... lolwut?
- If buildings are on fire they slowly burn down until you can't use them any more
- Soviets: mass but class
- Wehrmacht: low on number count but superior
- Base building will stay in the game

A wonderful fay whispered me this stuff into my ear in the last night.  No just kidding. I read through Gamerreplays.org and the Company Of Heroes main page and collected some stuff I read about. (+Reviews from several game sites) |

I didn't hear much about the Soviets using a ton of infantry, but I did hear about them specializing in elite units.
