If you have not learned by now, then let me tell you:
Adding commanders DOES NOT FIX BALANCE PROBLEMS.
It CREATES THEM.
FACTION THAT REQUIRES COMMANDERS TO OPERATE AGAINST STOCK UNITS IS A FACTION WITH A HUGE DESIGN FLAW.
Capital letters, so it will be more clear for you.
I didn't say add I said make the current commanders less useless. Right now USF has fairly good/viable stock units (with some black sheep here and there like OKW) but were it lacks the most compared to OKW is the fact half it's commanders are total shit.
And requiring commanders to do well had been the deal since day 1 for Soviets.
Relic isn't going to redesign the factions, but they might at least be open to buffing more commanders so they are viable.
To throw another suggestion onto the table I say reduce the damage of shreks but increase their ROF so they have the same DPS. That way you tanks actually have time to deal damage instead of exploding the minute they get in range of a blob.
