Well my GOTY arrived yesterday, but I am having some troubles whit error messages but I will reinstall it and try again.(Its not my lucky month)
Hopefully I will be up and running tomorrow, and able to get some first hand knowledge of your style of play and command.
Would it be any real problem having one player acting as command HQ maybe in an secure location or as co-pilot in a Blackhawk or any were else were he is slightly more secure.
And bay the way a like the panic and screaming in the com channels its nice knowing that some other players and not joust me have lost contact whit reality.
And a would not ad a third commander to a team if its avoidable. A 12man team is to large in many ways and I prefer two-three 8 man teams and Platoon commander, The commander should not give exact commands to the Squad leader. More general like move to coordinate and do this or that. The micro management is still a task fore the squad leader, the assistant squad leader is in game terms more of a replacement if the squad leader dies.( or if you need to split the squad).
The Platoon commander directs the Squads to the locations he believes is most suitable to complete the mission(Some times even sticking to the Plan). And relay information to the squads regarding the other squads and possible enemy units. Its also his task to be creative and com up with emergency plans fore the hole platoon. And to decide when to call fore support and pick up.
Maybe it means that a second channel will be needed to command and control the unit. But then the complexity will rise and also the difficulty(at least in the beginning)
Cheers
