SpeedWolf, you seem to have a lot more units than I have, I am playing single player skirmish, and I can't right click and bring up any information.

Faces of War seems to be a Ubisoft game, how does that relate to the men of war series?

By the way the dancing Russian is hilarious! is that something that is actually in the game, or did you create it?

you didn't say that it was skirmish, nothing will show up only in Multiplayer or LAN,

Hey, controlling units in this game is really hard, especially if you have a large amount.. do u have any tips or guide on how to control units properly?

It's much harder than Company of Heroes! I have the sense that Men of war is better than COH, but i dont know where it is better? can anyone briefly tell?

The video show a lot on what you can do, but if you're having a hard time i would suggest finding a player who have the time to help you,

Try slowing down the game(Backspace). When the action gets too hot Pause the game (Pause). You can still look around and you can give Move/Attack commands to your Armor.

Men of War is much more realistic . A single squad can take out a whole army if used wisely . Every men and vehicles count in Men Of War , in Company of Heroes , you can lose 2 millions of men , you will always be able to produce more ...

That's what making Men Of War much better than Company Of Heroes .
[I have both] . But I have to admit that I still enjoy playing Company Of Heroes , plus , I prefer Company Of Heroes mods than Men of War's ones .

I would agree with you about the earlier games, but Assault Squad was made to use reinforcements IMO. I play on "Heroic", my game is tweaked but I loose tons of units, but that makes calling in reinforcements so much fun.
