Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts Message Board  

Having ships and submerines would be out of this world!
or even more control of air raids...WOW!

Like I said before - my dream is CoH in the time of The First Indochina war. Vietminh against French, border battles 1950, big airdrop in Lang Son (Operation Hirondelle in July 1953), operations Camarque, Lorraine, etc., finaly Dien Bien Phu in 1953-54. Airdrops, bombing raids, rescue missions to save some isolated outposts, .... River convoys using Black and Red river being ambushed and forced to protect themselves, attacks agains De Lattre line (Maréchal de France Jean Joseph Marie Gabriel de Lattre de Tassigny), etc. .... My dream.

I have already got the unleaked beta of Company of Heroes Tales Of Valour From Some Bali Site It is perfect and graphics are mad you get to be russia,british,germans,americans,italians,french,canadians

Mmmm... While I wouldn't be surprised at an Ost Front campaign, thus introducing the much requested Soviet Union faction, I am exceedingly dubious of a supposed French or Italian faction.

Even more so with supposedly "mad" graphics in a beta, of any kind, because quite typically the graphics packages are the first thing to be pared down precisely for the benefit of download practicalities since by far the fastest growing aspect of a game's size is the graphical components, meanwhile the actual mechanics of a game can often be extremely small.

As for a Canadian faction, it'd shut up the whiny board trolls that won't ever shut up about requesting them, but exactly how one would actually be implemented and made noticeably different from the British Commonwealth faction (which by definition already included Canada) is suspect.

Is it just a joke? Or You really have some real stolen copy? I am sorry - do not believe You.

It's actually pretty simple to figure out which category his "claims" fall into, let's just have him name the French and Italian tanks supposedly in the game he claims to have.

Funny facts about the Italians in World War II.

1)Several of their tanks had five reverse gears.
2)Their first conquest in WW2 was against people with swords.
3)They failed miserably in their attack on Greece(they actually lost ground because they retreated so much).
4)They ran from forces less than half their size.
5)They spent more time running then fighting.
So to tell the truth their would probably be no Italian army in the game because the only decent part of their military was their navy and that got defeated in 1941 by the British navy. So saying that a game series that has been fairly historically correct would field the Italians is just a blatant lie.
The French didn't really partake in major battles but did fight a considerable guerrilla war against the Nazis in France but they did not have a diverse enough military force to be able to warrant an entire side. You may say that the Battle for France might be worth putting in but it was fairly one sided for the Germans as the British and French were wholly unprepared for what happened to them.
As for the new sides I would say Russians, Japanese, and maybe the marines with a little naval support thrown in.
