The NEXT Company of Heroes - Bring on the British

Posted: Fri Apr 06, 2007 8:46 pm

Looks like the next COH will feature Brits vs an upgraded Germany. Welcome the beloved SAS to COH.

see the story on the homepage for more info - or do a damn google search yourself (you lazy ass, lol) for more info

Guess it will be a standalone game but compatible w/ COH, so all 4 countries can be played.

Brits
Royal Canadian Artillery: Heavy Artillirty based with the M7 Priest. Different modes, such as Overwatch, creeping barrage, and counter battery fire.

Royal Commandos: Glider SAS troops + Tetrach I light tanks. Abilities to see through FoW, intercept Axis 'messages', decoys for artillery and glider drops. (Fake coloured smoke?)

Royal Engineers: Churchill tank variants. 290mm mortar, Flamethrower, cover for tanks, trenches, machinegun nests.

Germans
Scorched Earth: Ability to make impassable terrain, enviornment based defenses.

Luftwaffe: Fallshirmjagers, Flak Cannons, He129 Tank buster.

Tank Hunters: King Tiger, JagdPanther.

Brits also seem to have an 'ability' where they go into patrol mode in enemy territory, agressive mode in home territory, having an officer nearby will let them go into agressive mode in enemy territory as well. They can dig trenches making infantry almost invulnerable to any kind of bombardment, requiring infantry to flush them out.

i guess to get the full scoop you have to buy this magazine. found some posts before the official announcement, they were hilarious, speculating it was the brits because of the "moustache"

I am damn excited. I just moved again and have had a lot of shit to do. Ill be back on soon. But German Para and Jadpanthers would be nice. And SAS oh my. And they say vehicle AI will be better. I sure fucking hope so. Also the 2 campaigns should be cool too.
