Congratulations to the whole EF team. I am aware that you have put in enormous work on this, and you have added personally to my enjoyment of the game to a huge degree and I want to thank you here, and now for all your efforts.
As an aside, I'm personally sad to see you remove RMC. I really think thats something you guys should have discussed more widely before making your choice. The RMC were frankly better than the normal brits, at least not as unhinged. You've put so much work in to make them and now throw that away? I don't understand. Surely the team of people who put all that work in must not be happy to see it die? You made a better brit faction, with IMHO better balance in terms of the game than relic did.. and you reove it?
Although you are right, your focus was the Eastern Front, Stalin asked the Brits repeatedly for a second front. So I appeal to your whole team here and now, provide the front in game as you did and put the RMC back :) To quote history ! 'second front now!' :)
Balance can be worked on, but honestly, I like Eastern Front because you guys add content into the game. Its almost always been as solid as a production release, and you guys should be rightly proud. But please be aware, your value is in adding in the units, not in removing chunks. Its now a less rich, less interesting, less fun add on.
For now, while I appreciate the Osteer, I can't change my version. I prefer the RMC. This obviously means I can only play with friends on the same version, but what can I do.
However this pans out, thanks for your efforts, You guys have added immesurable fun to my CoH install for a long time
