Question should be why is the C.P IV and Stug -E still call-in and not build able from HQ...

No, it shouldn't. Base buildings for default units, not for doctrinal ones.

Thankfully, it is still a rule for majority of the doctrinal units (i didn't count infantry units, but all of them, except panzerfusiliers, are call-ins as well):

Lend lease has the conscript repair kit passive. Could give it T4 assault guards without mentioning in the text.

Please, do not suggest things like that. There is no connection between CRK and assault guards. Also, things without mention via UI is always bad.

IMO, M5 should not be in the doctrine, since it is basic unit for Red Army (same goes for Ostheer with it's grenadiers/panzergrenadiers battle groups). There is some variants, what can be instead according to gamefiles:
- WC52 - visually identical to WC51, no skins, can be equiped with DShK, maybe some other grades as well.
- Universal Carrier - no skins, can be equiped with DShK.

Both this vehicles were used in the Red Army, and i believe some balance tweaks will help to separate them enough from M3 Scout Car.

In other word all these vehicles built from T0 for a tech cost.

Doctrinal stuff should not be in Tiers in the first place. This idea, suddenly, appereared when Relic didn't find better solution to nerf premium mediums in 2015.

I am still for standartsization of doctrinal vehicles around CP + final tech reuirement + reharge time nerf and excluding them from the Tiers. It is more essntial to the game, since it's much closer to how it was designed in the first place for CoH and CoH 2.

Tiers are for core units, not for doctrinal stuff.

Every skinslot in your loadout haveing a number of coded skins, which will be used. M4A3(76)W was in AA campaign, that's why it has all skins from AA. Also, it has historical skins, which were created by players and added to the in-game store.
You can't just apply skin from one vehicle to another, because it's not working in that way, even when models have a lot in common.


Also, it's not the only issue with skins. Here is the list of all inconsistency, which i saw:
Soviet M4A2(76)W - didn't have skins untill 2015-2016
Ostheer SdKfz 234/2 "Puma" - didn't have skins untill 2015-2016
OKW Opel Blitz - doesn't have any skins at all. I suggested to give it panzergrau as default (to be in line with sWS, Tiger and SdKfz 221), but it didn't make it.
OKW Tiger - doesn't have any skins at all, using a panzergrau as default.
OKW SdKfz 221 - doesn't have any skins at all, using a panzergrau as default.
UKF M5 - doesn't have any skins at all.
UKF Achilles I (a.k.a. british M10) - doesn't have any skins at all.

We were trying to push Relic to cooperate with skinmakers, but they decided, that it will require to much work.

I hope all these suggestions get implemented. I have an issue with the UI that I think were introduced with the commander revamp patch/new commander patch, and that is that commander ability order is screwed up on a few commanders.

This is on the command bar in-game for Soviet Industry Tactics:



And these two are in the main menu commander preview:

That‘s right. I‘ve already mentioned it before, so balance team should be informed about that:

Some doctrines have wrong order of abilities
