Extending weapon crew remanning to tanks, giving an AT gun a barrage ability, and an ability that works differently from suicide M8 mines.
I'll give you True Sight and Blizzards. They're yours.
Deep snow (rivers), earned vet, weapon drops, doctrinal units, separate AP and AT mines, vet unlocks, Ostwinds and Quads, unmanned crew weapons are all not new.
Vaulting is new, and my tanks getting shocked on the first hit is also new.
You guys forgot ice, where an arty or mortar round lands on my super-unit and sinks it. Or put another way, the only part of a map where my vehicles won't run into every obstacle they can.
If a barrage ability on an AT gun and building doctrine units out of production buildings is what we are now calling new, I have too high of expectations.
Relic certainly isn't Blizzard. There's no making that mistake.
