Gameplay
You start with an officer, the only proposal of this team, is to stay alive, and organize the forces you call. You start with 2 basic forces to call, Combat Engineers (3 big squads, plus 3 supporting halftracks) and a Reccoinnasance platoon (4 non-reinforced Greyhounds plus some jeeps). With these basic forces, you start by taking some strategic points faster than the enemy, and the first encounter will unleash, as soon as the strategic points are common to both enemies. As long as you combat your enemies, capture points, make survive your forces, you'll gain experience, and then Command points. When you have Command points, the game starts.
You'll select a Battalion, between Infantry, Armored and Support (or Artillery Battalion). When you select one of these, you'll see a complete Unique tree of platoons for that Battalion, and you can enable those platoons with more Exp. This trees can include from Big infantry platoons, Anti-Tank platoons, Tank platoons, with lotta new units like M4a3(105), and more.

As I said in the other thread, personally for me it has very little fun factor. For example, German Pioneers were able to destroy my Armoured Rifle Company, most of whom decided it would be fun to keep leaving the hard cover I had them behind.
