I do totally agree about the CoH thing. While there is no base-building (thank god!), in addition to the reinforcements in the skirmish mode (which I didn't think was such a bad thing, to be fair), there were a few other things which struck me as being straight from CoH. Graphically, it looked like it. MoW and CoH have always looked very different - this is one of the things we spend a lot of time and energy telling countless people who have never properly played either game, but AS really does look like CoH - right down to the dotted white circles under the infantry. The gameplay is a bit similar, but I must say I haven't played AS enough to give a proper value judgement on that. It only came out a week ago and I haven't spent all my gaming time on it.
As for your point about being able to select Heavy or Medium tanks in the multiplayer mode, I seem to remember there being that option in the rules section where you choose unit types - 'no heavy tanks', 'no superheavy tanks', etc. Maybe this bit has changed since you last played it, Speedwolf, or maybe I am thinking of something else.
