It is going to take a lot of effort to get the existing armies to be able to complete with some of these new units and their abilities. Shermans with crews? Smoke launchers? Boss sauce.

Agreed.
In other news, buildable sandbags?
I don't recognise that particular model, so it might be new, but why would it be new unless there was another purpose. Yeah.

Kyle stop talking about balance and non cleared units or you could get in trouble.

I was under the impression that KT is open for discussion !? Well, thx anyhow, we shall know soon enough
KT is, stats and balance is not.
Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

Guys, there are only 4 more weeks till official release and probably an open beta will begin even sooner than that.
You shouldn't jump to conclusions based on bits and pieces of information, just wait a while and you will see for yourselves how awesome this expansion will be. I can't say more but rest assured the new armies are quite unique in terms of gameplay and abilities. And hopefully by the time it goes live most balance issues will be dealt with.

You can bet all your money they won't.

Also, what about the American officer squads:
Lieutenant
Capt.
Major
So it seems that they must be bought in order to tech. I'm guessing that they are limited to 1 of each.

Unless I missed something, they are the tech. All buildings are there by default, but you can't use them until you build the associated officer.

Probably not, but then again the original factions have underwent significant balance changes too for almost a year. I don't think balance issues will be that big with the new factions. Mostly people will have to understand the way they play.

Dear, dear looks like Jackson is the new Firefly now. And the M2 utility car is like the old greyhound with some more sheningans. M3 Scott is like a bastard child of T70 and Stug III E.

I could see in the replay that the M3 crew had a bazooka on it.
Isn't it more viable to kill an enemy scout car 221 by decrewing your M3 and shooting the bazooka instead of chasing it with bullets?

Might be part of their risk/reward scheme. If you do that, you can't re-enter the M20 (M3 is a Half-Track) until the unit is out of combat, which in-game is considered after about 5 second after seeing the last enemy. If Grenadiers arrive to support the Scout Car, you might be forced to abandon the M20 to save the crew members, but then the Germans would capture your M20. So it'd be very high risk / high reward to hop out in combat to use the Bazooka.

I guess the scout car will be far away while the crew is jumping out. Or that the crew is pretty easy to kill.

It looks to me that the 'armored company' can skip teching. No major required. Did anybody catch in the video how much the officers cost?
The major looks like a 3 man squad.
I think I missed the captain's squad and the Lt. is a 5 man squad.

Yes, vCOH sandbag is back, can be built by Rifles (Inf company), engi (rear whatever), Volks and Pio.

Just seen relic stream just asking if the American base is all one building or separate buildings damage wise.
It's looks like a big target. Will there be any v1 or v2 streaking across the sky to blow it to bits, looks like a sturmtiger could deliver the coup de grace.

Not sure if you're talking about CoH1 or leaking.
