United States
Am I the only one who thinks it's still the best or maybe second best US commander? Would love to hear top player's opinions on this but the top 200 popularity ranking is definitely not representative of its strength.
I might not be a top200 USF player but I can tell you why it's most likely not popular and that's because it's not adding anything that the USF really needs.
Like what do you get from the doctrine? Early light vehicle? Nice, but that's early game. Cav Riflemen? Cool close range infantry, but USF doesn't struggle in close range engagements. M3 Halftrack? An interesting replacement for the ambulance I suppose but it's a bit of a waste to be selecting a commander for an ambulance replacement. Sherman 76? Yeah I mean it's neat and all but it's a Jack-of-All-Trades unit in a faction 90% made up of them. Combined Arms? It's expensive and lackluster.
Now that you've chosen this commander and the novelty factor's worn off; how are you dealing with the axis lategame units? They're tearing you apart at long range and your cav roflmen can't do a thing about it. How are you dealing with axis heavy tanks? Got another bounce from the 76 on the Panther, really regretting not having gone Jackson at this point.
It's like a gimmick commander but the gimmick is sucking eggs.
