Keep in mind that there are also a lot of bugs in the beta. Which are the top priority for testers to point out and make sure are fixed, before balance. That being said, there is a hard counter to these mines in the game, it's called a minesweeper - the range of which was also significantly buffed in the patch. |

The community commanders are the defensive ones you saw in the livestream. You know, the ones with the tank traps. |

Sound like this thread is going from "what units did you think were cool in CoH" to "I wish CoH2 was vCoH" thread. To which I respond: Different game, you can still play vCoH, or even better you can still play EiRR. |

If they added more commanders to those you could bring with you into battle, it would make the decision less significant. Same goes for if you could change your commander once you have chosen it, why not just make all the units available and get rid of commanders all together? I think the limited commanders that you can bring into battle and the permanency of the choice once made gives that "key choice" to the gameplay as well as a risk/reward for particular strategies. That being said, I do think a confirmation window is a good idea. |

Who me? How do you know? Also, I was just kidding. While it is uber powerful, the fact that you lose all of your resource income for the rest of the game once you call it in kind of balances it out. |

Front armor on the KV2 will bounce shots from a Panther sometimes, good health too. |

CoH2 is actually more unpredictable tactically as your strategy is more dependent on the commanders that you have chosen. If you were given so much flexibility within the vanilla faction people could essentially opt to not utilize commanders and thus would be opting out of a key gameplay element. It simply makes more sense within the context of CoH2 to make abilities and units that sit near the extremes of the tactical spectrum (much more defensive or much more assault oriented) exclusive to certain commanders. |
