Let's play a little game for fun. This is not intended as a suggestion thread but as a way of venting out awesome commanders. If you could make a commander what would it be?

I'll establish some ground rules just to be safe (from flame wars).

1) It has to be balanced. If it's strong it's cost should match.
2) Custom abilities are welcome provided they adhere to rule one
3) Try to justify what it would add to the faction
4) (Optional) As per Relic tradition; try to put one useless ability in!

I'll start;

United States Forces - Heavy Support Company

0cp -Forward Observers
Riflemen now see further while garrisoned or in cover.


2cp - Designated Marksman 60 Munitions
Each squad can now be upgraded with a marksman. This marksman has a 25% chance to instantly kill enemy infantry. -Takes up 2 inventory slots.

6cp - Reconnaissance Pass 60 Munitions
A P-47 flies overhead revealing a part of the map.


13cp - M4A3E2 76(w) "Jumbo" Sherman 600 Manpower 180 Fuel
A Jumbo Sherman is called in to break through enemy lines. It's similar in role to the Churchill in that it tanks damage. It only has the standard E8 abilities.

16cp - "Line breaker" Bombardment 400 Munitions
All available regimental guns are assigned to your sector. All enemy fortified positions and frontline sectors are shelled with a combination as follows. Flares initiate the barrage locating enemy forces this gives warning to enemy commanders. 3 seconds latter light 81mm Mortars begin shelling the edges of enemy front-line territories while 105mm Howitzers begin their barrage, creeping across the sector to the mortars. Any buildings (even ambient) are shelled with 155 and 240mm Shells. Only frontline territories are selected.

I feel that this doctrine would give the United States Forces a strong late game punch and ability to deal with Axis players who like to play statically or blob. I have a similar doctrine of the OKW who I feel are not as strong against the static Brits as Ostheer but I think I'll see what you guys can think of next.

Let's see some great ideas people!
