The eastern revamp is better than the british "revamp".


The Tank Hunter commander has certainly been improved a lot, which is very welcome. But I doubt anyone would pick it more than they used to.
Especially now that Ambush Tactics, IL-2 call-in, and Guards have been improved, which will make all the commanders that have those better - which includes most of the main SU commanders people most frequently use.

I really can't see anyone bothering with 'Guard Rifle Combined Arms Tactics' as although it has some interesting stuff and has been improved, it just isn't useful enough to be worth using, compared to all the alternative better commanders.
Which is also why although these commanders are without a doubt being improved, their overall themes mean they just aren't a good or worth while choice compared to much better commanders.

Would be great to have a USF Pershing+ShermanE8 commander. Soviets already have a t34/85+IS2 commander - I always play with that.

Or is that too much?


That's the kind of drastic change (or revamp) to a commander I was hoping we'd from the revamps.

The 'Recon Support Company' is basically rubbish, if they tweak that and keep it as a light recon and mainly inf based commander, it will remain a totally weak commander that would be a waste of a commander slot.

This is the perfect commander for an actual revamp. They could change it to 'Armoured Support Company'. They could massively buff the M8 so that it's like a lessor Puma (as someone else has suggested), and replace 'Airdropped Combat Group' with a Pershing.
The fact that only one US commander has access to the Pershing is a farce and a huge waste of the unit.
And finally, swap Pathfinders with Assault Engineers.

If the existing weak commanders are only tweaked, although they will be improved, they will most likely still remain much weaker choices, compared to the most popular commanders.

In what you've shown there, I feel like a Priest might be more fitting than a Pershing to be perfectly honest.

It'd give that Recon Sweep a purpose. Or if the Recon sweep revealed cloaked units, as it's a sweep, not a loiter...

I dunno. The commander system itself is what makes balancing individual commanders a challenge IMO. Unless that's overhauled, commander balance will likely be a moving target.

Ideally it would be great to have more commanders that have access to the Priest/Pershing.
Only having one commander for each unit is a waste of game content and gameplay potential.

I doubt Relic will be adding any new commanders to the game (even though they would probably sell better than DOW3), so the 'revamp' is realistically the only way to get drastically better commanders into the game.

Plz no Pershing, I prefer more durable 76mm Sherman Jumbo would fit the role better.

There is absolutely no chance for any new models to be added to the game. So you can forget about jumbo.
