In addition to the multitude of tasks carried out behind the scenes, Engineer squads can also be equipped with a flamethrower for clearing out garrisoned enemy troops, demolition kits for bringing down buildings, and minesweepers to keep the rest of the forces out of harms way.Īllied mortar squads are tasked with softening up enemy defenses from a distance before an attack. Constructing buildings, repairing damaged vehicles, setting up MG nests and planting mines just to name a few. Although not very useful in heavy combat situations, they do perform many tasks that play an important role in the long run. As you can see, the basic riflemen squads are properly equipped to take on almost any enemy threat.Įngineers are the heart and soul of the Allied forces. If used in concert with the M1 and grenades, the BAR can be devastating. The Browning Automatic Rifle provides a rifle squad with additional firepower to suppress the enemy. Makeshift sticky bombs are used to destroy or immobilize enemy vehicles and armor. Grenades are excellent for clearing out entrenched enemies. In addition to the standard issue rifle, riflemen squads can be armed with grenades, sticky bombs and BAR rifles. Equipped with a standard M1 rifle, they pose a considerable threat to enemy infantry, especially when the allies have heavy cover. Harnessing their strengths and using their unique abilities to your advantage, join up! and experience Relic's next gen RTS, setting a new standard for both graphics and gameplay in the genre.Īllied riflemen are well-trained, versatile soldiers. In Company of Heroes you take command of these troops. The Allies sustained heavy casualties throughout the war, totaling approximately 17 million military deaths, compared to about 8 million on the Axis side. With such significant challenges, the Allied troops relied on persistence, numbers and versatility to eventually win the war. The Allied forces had their work cut out for them in WWII, facing an enemy fighting on their own soil, with superior armor and a strong defensive position.
