Ok so, you can;
blow up bridges (also in cc2 right? never played tough)
have 2 battle groups at one map?
Let infantry make an alternitive river crossing, without using a bridge?
and;
the turns represent a shorter time as in previous cc?

This is good news, I just want to know:
Is there requisition points?
What changes are there to the multiplayer mode (if any)?
What changes are there to the scenario editor mode (if any)?
Can you blow up bridges?
Are there different flags for each nationality?
can you mount halftracks?
Any other information that you would like to share is fine too. |

Can you blow the bridges? Is that what the red square represents?
I can't see anything on the battle dashboard to suggest there's a "blow the bridge" button like in CC2. Is it an option for the German player to blow the bridges during their movement phase or something?
If so, I hope it has a chance of failure, or the German player suffers some kind of drawback for each bridge they nuke; I'd hate to think you could just blow up all the bridges on the first turn. That would be naff. |

Schrecken, could you possibly be any more esoteric?  |

And the good old bridge element to move over and under it.
Now, that´s quite exciting - a remake of CC2! Do we get the original CC2-feeling back? Will the Oosterbeek-bridge be blown into our faces again? And the Königstiger to roast Shermans beside the tulips? "See your tank on the road explode". Last but not least: Will someone make some good tools to mod it?

Notice how the shape of sectors on the strat map are with each re-release progressively evolving into hexes!

How many allied icons on 1 map

How many icons on one map; never mind whether they are Allied or not?! Why would they allow the Allies to stack and not the Germans? Think of all the fragments of units which came together west of Arnhem to hold up 1st Airbourne's advance!
So hexes, and now stacking! The strat map is beginning to feel like a boardgame of old.

24 red dots vs 15 green dots. Of course we can't tell whether one dot represents one or more battlegroups now! The way that some of them are grouped suggests one dot = one battlegroup. From that and the unoccupied areas on the stratmap it is impossible to tell how many combat maps the new game will have. Original CC II was theorised to have capacity for 50 although I don't know if anyone fully tested or exploited that. |

Another thought:
Only one of the two Allied units stacked on the strat map is mentioned (in blue) at the top.
So can only one fight? |
