What is airdropped combat group and what is withdraw and refit?

Airdrop combat group drops 2 airborne squads and a at gun with a crew
Elite riflemen are a call-in rifle squad with veterancy
Withdraw and Refit allows you to refund a vehicle and get most of the resources you spent on it back.

Withdraw and refit isnt that bad then - you can get rid of old m20's, m5 AA halftracks, and stuarts once late game outclasses them. You can use the resources for shermans and jacksons then.

Yup that's exactly it. The strat I used in beta was to call in the jeep and use that till light vehicles and schreks came out. Then the M20 to lay some AT mine until armor arrives. Then start on shermans. Pretty much lets you quick tech to medium armor while still using light vehicles.

Awesome man, can you please give a description or screenshot of each commanders? Would you please give details about the WC51 and Forward Observers + IR Pathfinders. Is the M3 Half-track Assault Group similar to the Soviet ones? I heard someone said there is a commander with the Jumbo also.

WC51: It's a jeep with a machine gun
IR Pathfinders: PAthfinders that have one less guy, but can call in artillery
Forward Observers: riflemen in cover see further
M3 halftrack: Halftrack with assault engineers

Based on the descriptions of every ability that was said... these 3 commanders trump the starting three. I find it disappointing when i cant find a use for all of a commander's abilities, but these commanders seem very useful.

Sweet, looks like Rifle company will be my fav doctrine, will rifle spam => Ez8 spam be the new bulletproof strat?

Mortar halftrack is decent. Riflemen can build stuff.
The priest is so good, surprisingly fast recharge with probably OP range.
Time on target is accurate and can knock out idle tanks.

It looks to me that:
US Armor: For Armor rushes, Skip T4
US Infantry: Good for long team games
US Airborne: Good for shorter, smaller games.
----------
OKW Special Ops: Armor rushes, Skip T4
OKW LW: Good for shorter, smaller games.
OKW Breakthrough: Good for long team games

The base commanders.
OKW Breakthrough: Good for long team games
Breakthrough is certainly viable in 1v1 when u go Mechanized regiment HQ, Puma + Panzerfusilier + Sturmzofficier and then convert muni to fuel and go for Obersoildaten then Panther or wait for Jadgtiger depend on your opponent. As OKW, I dreaded T-34/85 most. Those things are evil, they just kill my precious sturmpio and too tough for my Puma + puppchen to handle
