Profile of Qeit

Rear Support Company .
Provides additional support both directly and indirectly and improves defensive capabilities of the faction.

0 CP. M2 Flamethrower.

2 CP. Unexpected preparations.
- Normal mines for Rear Echelon.
- Molotov Cocktails for Rear Echelon.

5 CP. Hold the line, damn it!
- Active ability.
- Player's infantry in all friendly and neutral territories gains increased received accuracy, faster reload and cooldown.
- In neutral territories bonuses works with only 50% efficiency.
- Neutral territory should be connected to player own territory, otherwise ability doesn't provide bonuses.

10 CP. Sherman Calliope.
- Some buffs for it, please.

12 CP. 240-mm Howitzer Barrage.

Pros:
- Greatly improves Rear Echelon capabilities.
- Strong artillery options.
- Can be really strong in defense.

Cons:
- No elite infantry.
- No premium medium tanks.

Swift Assault Doctrine
Focused on agression and deadly strikes against the enemy.

0 CP. Assault Grenadiers.

3 CP. STG Package.
- Assault Grenadiers can be equipped with 2 STG 44 (munition upgrade).
- Panzer Grenadiers can be equipped with 2 infrared STG 44.
- Infrared STG 44 have only slightly better accuracy (compared to normal STG 44), but their accuracy against enemy infantry in cover or buildings is greatly improved (0.8-0.9 modifier).
- Infrared STG 44 mutually exclusive with panzerschrecks.

6 CP. Stuka Anti-infantry Strafe.
- Same as in CAS.

7 CP. Forced Engine.
- Muni upgrade. Similar to Jagdtiger engine upgrade.
- Increases acceleration/deceleration and vehicle rotation speed of upgraded vehicles (can provide different values for Pz. 4 and Pz. 5).
- Avaliable on all player's vehicles.

14 CP. Tiger Command Tank.
- Cost more than normal Tiger and requires more experience to vet.
- Can be upgraded with pintle MG or tank commander (+10% to main gun's accuracy, +5 to sight).
- Provides aura, which increases penetration of player's vehicles. Only main gun is affected (doesn't affect 251 for example due to obvious reason).
- Additionally, decreases reload time for tanks, if tanks within aura range use Blitzkrieg ability (vet 1 ability). Again, only main gun is affected.
- Aura affects only player own units (possibly at vet 2 provides decreased pen bonus to allied vehicles, but not a reload bonus. For example - player own tanks gain 20% pen bonus, allied tanks gain 10%).
- Aura doesn't affect command tank itself (possibly, pen bonus applies at vet 3 to command tank itself, but reload bonus doesn't apply).

Pros:
- Early- and late-games call-ins.
- Improves scaling of infantry and allows more agressive play with infantry.
- Improves tanks late-game.
- Air support synergy with close and medium range infantry.

Cons:
- Doesn't affect mainline infantry (grenadiers).
- Supplement Assault Grenadiers spam.
- No late-game artillery or air strikes abilities.
- Tiger costs more and avaliable later.

Soviet Supply Tactics
Focused on conscripts with moderately strong late-game (yes, IS-2 again).

- Same as in Tank Hunters. Mutually exclusive with PPSh Package.

3 CP. PPSh SMG Package.
- Mutually exclusive with PTRS Package.

4 CP. Recon Overflight.

6 CP. Combined Arms.
- Same as USF one, but with different bonuses and cost. Accuracy bonus to tanks, infantry moves faster and reload their weapon faster. This one is subject to discuss.

13 CP. IS-2 Heavy Tank.

Pros:
- Allows cons heavy play.
- Provides recon capabilities.
- Provides additional synergy between infantry and vehicles.
- Heavy tank for late-game.

Cons:
- Can provoke infamous "I will build tier 2 and wait for heavy tank".
- No elite infantry.
- Bad for Penals heavy build.
- No artillery or air strike abilities.

Any closed/open Alpha tester sending alpha patch notes is leaking, thus breaking NDA. Please realise this very well before doing so.

Are you serious? Closed beta (or even alpha) info of vanilla COH 2 is still under NDA? The game was released almost year ago. It's f*cking impressing.

Finally some comment from Relic. Where have you been this whole time?

The NDA extends past the end of Alpha, so just because it's almost over doesn't mean it can be talked about.

And as far as I remember Alpha ends in few days. Really good news.
