About upcoming new commanders

All this talks about upcoming new commanders push me to this question: Do Red Army and Ostheer need new commanders? They have over 20 commanders each, and several of them really blank and non-popular or have better counterparts.

During last revamp, these factions, in fact, got new commanders - NKVD and Infantry doctrine. Both got new abilities and looks mainly unique, like it should be. And that's why i am thinking about upcoming new commanders. No doubts, western factions have less number of commanders (8 for each), and new commanders would be appreciated for them.

But, what if eastern factions, instead of one more commander, will get one more revamped commander in the same way, as last revamp was? I would like to get some opinions about it.

If you revamp Commander X into Commander Y, you're left with Commander Y.
If you make Commander Y as a new commander, you've got both Commander X and Commander Y.

The only way I see a revamp being better than a new commander is if you want to get rid of the original commander.

This makes sense if they revamp 2 commanders instead of adding 1 new one in my opinion.

Regardless it's whatever to me as long as there is new stuff added.

Ok, what the poing to have Anti-Infantry Tactics? This commander have zero unique stuff and have counterparts as Terror Tactics and Shock Rifle Frontline or even Counterattack with better synergy.
Or what about german Festung Armor Doctrine?

I am not saying they are bad, but they are outshadowed by other doctrines. What the reason to make a new commander and leave these unclaimed commanders. And again, Red Army and Ostheer have over 20 commanders each, what the reason to make this list even bigger, if not all commanders are used by players?

I'll put it this way. If Relic decided to delete the six least popular OST/SOV commanders, would you be in favour of that?

No. Imho, it's not the right way to make situation better. The right way - make them more interesting and unique, like it was made with NKVD. It's looks like brand new commander for me after revamp.

If you assume no third option is on the table and it's a choice between leave them as is or delete them, which do you go for?

What kind of a question is that? It's not connected with the thread at all. Just say it directly - you disagree with my idea. It's easy.
