Company of Heroes graphics and physics

When depleted rifle squads (they're half sqauds of 6 men) are sent back to HQ to get re-inforcements, they occassionally become stuck there, permanently.

I bumped into this as well. My solution is to order them into the HQ, and then out of it. Yes it's a bug, but that frees them up.

Does that game use an armor penetration system or a hit point system to determine wheb armor is being killed?

It's hitpoints all the way Redwolf, but it fits with this gametype very well. This game is NOT about relism, it doesn't even come close to the gametype that probably Theatre of War will be but it's a very entertaining RTS beer and pretzels game.

Don't take it to seriously and you can have lots of fun with it.

Well, I just bought Dropteam instead, so this one 'll have to wait

I have the game and I must say I agree as far as graphics and physics go they are quite sensational, and the game is fun and entertaining to a degree, but it all palls on me after a while and I start wishing I'd loaded CMBB instead. And I don't find the tactics or so call strategies needed to score all that accurate or involved either. Understanding its own brand of gamey tactics and strategies and above all how fast you execute simple commands-key mashing and mouse clicking- and crank out units is the only way to succeed in that game.

No, BF don't put that much effort into mere graphics and physics at the expense of accuracy tactical gameplay, though I'd certainly like something more graphically detailed and up to date than CM-quite a bit more in fact .

I'll buy COH when it drops down to $9.99. Maybe.

For those that dont know, one can use the PAUSEBREAK key to pause the game and issue orders then restart the action. Its the only way I enjoy it. I play at the hardest difficulty against the AI but use this pause feature to manage my units better.
