I don't support Oskus view of commander, the commander should ALWAYS be the leader. Not only does he have the command bar (how little that helps from time to time), but it would prevent others (the guy with it) to issue confusing orders just for fun.
I meant that the commander would be attached to one of the Alpha/Bravo/Charlie/Delta squads, and move with them. All leaders would have command bar normally and able to issue orders for their subordinates. Commander would give just rough orders, decide overall tactics, while the squad leaders handle the micromanagement; formations, ROE, etc.
In other words, it's almost like having Alpha/Bravo/Charlie/Delta as fireteams, and a commander would be more exactly a squad leader here.
On TS3: Commander + Alpha/Bravo/Charlie/Delta leaders would be able to talk on "command channel"
That is my vision... I hope my explanation wasn't too messy. In reality this concept is not complicated at all.

Actually I think Osku's idea might turn out as a good idea. If we try that for a couple of times we could all judge it's advantages.
The fewer men, the greater share of honor
