So what's that going to be, a call in half track?! Hope so, I've been dreaming of that for soviets.

Those looks like Fresh Conscripts from the campaign.

*bump

looks like a US unit spotted in november 13, not a lend lease one

ps: just for clarification -> I dont have any alpha acess. This is a image is from world builder trailer, released in nov13.

Damn, nice catch! Those "Conscripts" look like they might be American GI's. Obviously quality is an issue but that appears to be 5 man squads wearing green uniforms, rather than 6 men wearing tan.

Plus the Commander he's using contains icons for:
(German) Osttruppen
(Soviet) Conscript Assault
Unknown Ability Icon
(Soviet) Partisan Infantry
(German) Light Artillery Barrage

The mix-matching of faction icons implies that whatever he's using is full of placeholders, implying it's in development, as the Americans are.

The Germans are harder to tell, the picture on them is too awful and I cannot tell if they're OKW Infantry or regular old OH Infantry.

So many necros on this forum

On the other hand I wish Relic would release more info about Western Front now.

To be fair, this was certainly a worthy necro, it actually has content. And it's actually something we didn't know before despite being right in our faces!

Also I looked up the vehicle, the Dodge WC51. It'll probably be America's 'Scout Car', the real life WC51 had an MG mount that could fit a BAR, M1919, or M2 HMG.

I bet some kind of medic halftrack.

if I remember correctly, theres some kind of aura in that trailer.
