And that, my friends, is why lawyers actually have jobs. Thank you for feeding the legal machine with moneyz.

I agree with everything OnkleSam stated. I discussed one extra issue I have on the resource system last night on my stream. I am quite uncertain if it might create a degree of 'luck' in crucial early game teching decisions.

The reason I say this is that CoH is not really a scouting intensive game for tech structures in comparison to games like AoE and SC2. With sectors being OP'd with either fuel or ammo, you can never be sure if your opponent is going for heavier fuel or ammo based strats. The way CoH works means you simply will most likely not see an OP close to the base if an opponent hold their portion of the map.

In vCoH you can know roughly how much fuel your opponent will have depending on how long they have held the fuel or you have denied them fuel. This might mean you can maybe squeeze in WSC before going to t3/t4 for AT or catching your opponent really off guard with a puma.

This could make many players always take the 'safe option' just incase something might happen, rather than knowing exactly what will happen. In early game this is critical and you shouldn't have to waste fuel on a 'maybe' decision. Luck and linear play is what comes into my head with this resource system.

Give it a higher skill cap? there's no such thing as a skill cap, in any game.
