MOBILE assault
commando are op and they can spawn form building for cheeesy mortar wipes (althought they are 3 at the start they reinforce to 5)
flamer for re a 5 man eng squad with good vet adn good weapons
buff to IS (no one use it but you can beat ober with lmg with it)
land mattres the only rocket art of brits
tank repairs when u need your tank fast or to save on if they are about to get fausted

Special weapons is DE way.
At infantry which stands Alright vs enemy infantry and tanks check.
Mobile HQ which drops awesome vickers and piat (great investment but might need to skip aec) check.
Hold the line - You rarely Will use it cause you have next ability.
Artillery - say bye bye to any static defensive units
Churchills - did I told that you can have comets and chuirchill with flamers at the same time?

In overall I think it's win win in any situation commander and best option when you have rough start so you can be more aggressive with forward reinforcement from halftrack.

I would normally agree with STUG Life and Vipuks but I also think that Vanguard deserves a spot on here, sure it doesn't provide elite infantry, mobile indirect fire and a boost for infantry sections like Mobile assault, or a mobile Forward Assembly, Tank Hunters and whatever else Special Weapons provides but still, having a foward HQ glider that is able to train medics and spawns with an officer and able to train commandos is still a pretty good deal to me, not to mention you still get the Churchill Croc and 2 sort of awesome artillery/air abilities, at least I find them awesome, the air one is kinda situational but eh... better than nothing. And the combined Vehicle/Infantry cap booster is also pretty great, not to mention the repair ability.

Every commander other than emplacement regiment or artillery doctrine is viable. So, pick the doctrine you like using the most, and learn its abilities.

The easiest doxtrines to master are special operations, mobile assault and vanguard.

I think Vanguard Operations commander is a good choice because of

Raid Operation: which enables rapid capture of territory point.

Forward Logistics Glider: provides Airlanding Officer, Commandos, and Medic. Commandos and Airlanding Officer can kill enemy infantry easily.

Vehicle Crew Repairs, Strafing Support and Crocodile also adds more versatile power to the British force.
What would you say about this Vanguard Operations commander comrade?

"sure it doesn't provide elite infantry"

Airlanding Officer and Commandos aren't they elite infantry? what's the drawback of these 2 squads? Thanks.

UKF do not have commanders they have Regiments.

The ability "designed command vehicle" is available in 2 Regiments:
Royal Engineers Regiment
and
Tactical support Regiment

Vanguard, Special Weapons, and Commando are really good commanders. Although the other ones can work if you really try.

Special weapons just happens to cover the biggest weaknesses of British, lack of AT snare. It also gives a Croc, which is amazing. That weakness is pretty glaring which is why most people pick special weapons. If you can play with that weakness then the other commanders are preference in play style. Not to insult Smith but I wouldn't recommend going Royal Engineer Commander. I should probably experiment with it to see if it's hidden OP though.

Oh sorry I was thinking about Royal Engineers while typing this lol.

I used to roll with Special Weapons before I got Vanguard, but after I got Vanguard I started to rarely use Special Weapons anymore.

However just keep in mind that if you wanna stay mobile Special Weapons will be a better choice in the long run, Vanguard is just more of a bigger scale commander or at least was when I used it so I'm not sure how it performs nowadays.

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.

Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy :clap:
