#Ne xs company of heroes 2 image series
The Company of Heroes series has always been known for its focus on World War II authenticity and the latest expansion is no difference. British units such as the sniper is a Scotsman while the commando is a Northern Irishman. The developers actually hired voice actors from the distinct cultures to represent both the proper accents and if they would have come from the working or upper classes in the United Kingdom. When playing as the British forces it was notable that the developers have incorporated a diverse cultural makeup in the units. Other infantry units include the Vickers heavy machine gun team and .55 cal armor-piercing sniper, which is particularly useful for challenging light enemy vehicles on the battlefield. In regards to infantry units, the British forces have access to their premier Commando squads that favor stealth and bomb planting for their battlefield incursions. The tank types are varied enough to allow for players to select the perfect set of them for each combat encounter, be it a faster movement speed or more armor and firepower to face off against German armor. VII Infantry, Churchill Crocodile, and Churchill AVRE. IV Cruiser, Sherman Firefly, Comet, Churchill Mk. In the form of raw fire power, the British have a powerful selection of tanks to pick from including the Valentine Mk. Players looking for a more mobile approach to combat are also in luck as the British forces also have a quick moving vehicle with the universal carrier vehicle that combined with an infantry squad is perfect for quickly capturing points. Aside from the royal engineer crews being able to build the mortar and gun emplacements, the basic infantry units can also build quick defensive structures including trenches and saddlebags for unit cover. Primary defensive emplacements include the 3-inch mortar, 6-pounder anti-tank gun, and 40mm anti-aircraft weapon. The defensive structures in particular are great for use in protecting capture points and vital strategic locations such as bridges and main supply roads. The ability later in matches of being able to focus on a range of defense structures or a more attack-based army of tanks make replaying maps a new experience every time. Beginning with the early tech tree units all the ways to the more advanced, such as the Churchill Crocodile tank with a giant flamethrower gun, make for continual changing gameplay situations throughout matches. The units comprising the British forces might be some of the most varied and unique seen in a Company of Heroes game. Overall, the amount of content strikes a nice balance of variety for both series newcomers and veterans looking for new additions to their existing game. The expansion's content includes a total of 15 units, six commanders with unique abilities, and eight multiplayer maps that range from a German steelworks factory to the city of Düsseldorf. As players progress through the British tech tree they're given a choice of selecting the defensive-based structure 'anvil' approach or alternatively going with the 'hammer' approach that focuses on mobile and powerful units. One of the major differences between other Company of Heroes 2 armies is that players can decide between two approaches to their British forces. The focus of the new Company of Heroes 2 expansion as its name implies is the introduction of units from the British army forces. Following last year's release of the single-player expansion Ardennes Assault, developer Relic Entertainment expands Company of Heroes 2 again with the standalone multiplayer expansion of The British Forces.
