Hi guys Im Slinger

Currently Company of Heroes 2 consists of five main factions: Great Britain, United States Forces, Soviet Union and two germanic factions. However many more nations were involved in the struggle for freedem during Second World War. Our goal therefore is to select one of the minor nations such as (Italians, Canadians or Poles), create a well balanced commander consisting only of their national units and persuade relic into implementing it into the game.

I would vote for the Poles only if they got Lancer calvary to charge the germans!

I love the idea, hope it actually gets implemented. I voted Italians and Hungarians because they had tanks and SPGs of their own design and that would make them very unique

@iron knee
thanks a bunch for the kind words, maybe you are interested in participating in this project then plesase contact us. My motto is "think big but make little steps", so no-one would force you to do anything you dont want to. You could do as little as you want and it would still mean a lot to us.
If on the other hand you are not interested on participating at this time, please forward this project to anyone, every person matter. And once more I want to thank you so much for your kind words, they mean a lot to me.

Cheers,
Slinger

I'm glad I could convince you to put it up here :D

However, I maintain that other nations are too big for commanders and too small for factions. Subfaction system pls.

In my opinion Romanian and Hungarian should be on Ostheer, the 'Eastern' Germans. The Canadian and Australians should be British as they were members of the Commonwealth and fought in their name. The US would then get the French Commander, since the US was significant in equipping the Free French Forces.

I further think Romania and Hungary could be combined into one Commander.

If I may suggest units:

They're not going to make brand new commanders that utilize entirely new unit models and voices. They also don't just make them in English either.

Also, I'm sure they don't want to "racialize" commanders, either. Their primary goal is to make money through balanced design, not make money by having a whole sleuth of the same stuff but they all have different skins and accents.
If you really want that, you can try Total War, where they succeed in making a whole rainbow of nations and their own units, but fail to make them operate usefully or in any truly unique manner, and so result in a very bland mess that's not even balanced.

Have you reached out to Relic in any way? Perhaps at least gotten their blessing to try? I just think it would be a shame to put a lot of work into this project only for Relic to say no at the end.

Love the idea. Wierd that it came out so late.

Though i don't understand why Canadians should be in USF. They had UKF equipment.

KEEP CALM AND VOTE FOR POLES! :D

Ofcourse, first thing I've done was conacting relic on this matter, they still didnt respond. But I figured that even if they wouldnt respond we would try make at least one commander and maybe try to convince them after.

@xalvissx

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money
27 Mar 2025, 15:46 PM
Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM
Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM
Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.
27 Mar 2025, 09:30 AM
Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy :clap:
