Names and atmosphere

Recommended Posts

The counters look generic like in High Command.

But one can assign a real life commander to HQ units, so obviously one can determine the name and commander of a unit from some info screen (right?). Good! smile.gif But how about other units e.g. Panzer forces? Will Guderian be somewhere or do we just have generic counters? And then the navy: will we have the "Hood", the "Bismarck" etc.?

It´s not so much because of gameplay but because of atmosphere. One reason why I liked CoS much better than 3R is that CoS had those "individual" units ...

You can actually rename any unit that you wish at any time but by default they have authentic names. Last night, after the Reich collapsed, all that I had left were some die hard Italian units dug in around Rome and the battleship, Andrea Doria was providing some badly needed offshore support.

All for naught though, advanced jet fighters from Allied bases in Malta finally sunk her as she was heading to Taranto for badly needed repairs and a combined Soviet,American,Canadian and British assault wiped the last vestigages of the Axis presence from the European continent once and for all.
