#Company of heroes infantry only upgrade

Burn the bunker located near one of points using the flamethrower of your engineer team. Seize munitions points, build OPs on them. Neutralize MG emplacements with grenades by sneaking to them from flanks, by dirt roads, covered by hedgerows - don't rush frontally across the fields under any reason! Eliminate two MG-42s near the fuel point (left edge of a map) by attacking them from the roadside - move quickly to avoid spending too much time under the fire of two german snipers shooting from the houses. Rifle squads (and one engineer team) that moved to the north-west should clear the area from enemy MG-42s and infantry (reinforce your army with riflemen produced in barracks). Then capture the gun and strategic point next to it, build OP, repel possible german infantry counterattack (afterwards you can replenish manpower of this squad in the base).

Send soldiers you have from the beginning north-west, with a task to seize two points: munitions and fuel, but one squad should move east to kill enemy AT gun crew there, near the strategic point. Start working on additional infantry squads also, you already have barracks. Produce two sections of engineers in your base to the south, first of them will have a task of extending the base. If you manage to do that in 50 minutes you'll be awarded with Soldiers's Medal. Now this task belongs to soldiers from Able company, to you. Many of american soldiers were killed when trying to capture hill 192.

Upgrade captured building to the barracks, bombard with all you've got hill 192 first and assault it finally from the north (do some passages in hedgerows with bulldozer if necessary). If you want to complete additional objective in the designed time limit don't move with your forces over the whole map, just concentrate on the assault along the left (west) edge of a map first, then turn north-east and capture small german base near the northern (top) edge of a map. German remote controlled self-propelled Goliat mines can also be annoying - enemy Pioneers send them and detonate under your tanks. Note: in this mission you may have some problems with enemy rocket artillery shelling you when coming close to the hill. Capture Hill 192 in 50 minutes (reward: Soldier's Medal).And I don't think it has to do with grenades being much more powerful, the blobber will often get your nearest squad before they lob a grenade so it has to do with a host of other reasons like mortars and mid-game vehicles. The game discourages blobbing, which is the single biggest problem in CoH1.I know people have been saying that at high-skill level it is more balanced, but 90% of the playerbase is not high-skilled but more like me. Often times during multiple fights, you either look at a different squad and lose your squad in the fight you were looking at, or not look away and lose a squad in the other fight to a grenade. The whole game is built around the concept of sneaking in a grenade when your opponent is not looking. This is the biggest reason why i dislike CoH2. In CoH2, every faction can do everything with slight gimmicks. In CoH1, the Wehr used to be the defender that slowly got stronger while US was usually stronger at the start. You don't know what role you have in the match.But i've been told it used to be much worse in the earlier days of CoH2 so i guess that is still an improvement. The fecal-brown colors just don't cut it for me. The color scheme, this one is more personal than actual criticism i guess.

In CoH1, when howitzer shells were landing on you, you could be looking elsewhere on the map but were instantly alerted and could micro your units to safety. Calliope in CoH1 sounds so much better than CoH2. I don't know why but the sounds in CoH2 seem to sound like firecrackers. I have tried to play CoH2 for the last one week on a friend's advice and i've come to really dislike the game for these reasons: I used to be rank 10-12 in COH1 (back in the day, rank now doesn't matter anymore but i guess would be 16).
