Given all this, a Commando unit can easily survive prolonged periods of time behind enemy territory. This also allows the Commandos to know which areas to avoid, and easily slip between enemy patrols.
Given the right Command Upgrade, they can also set up Detectors for Radio Triangulation deep inside enemy territory, in order to monitor enemy unit movement. Like other British Infantry units, Commandos can also construct Slit Trenches to defend themselves. Commandos can also throw grenades, and can plant powerful manually-triggered demolition charges. In larger groups (or coupled with other airborne assets) they can be used to assault weak points in the enemy's defenses, or as a surprise flanking force to assist a British main-armored advance.įoremost of their special abilities is the use of smoke grenades to cover the Commandos' retreat: it allows them to disappear almost instantaneously (with the bonus of temporary camouflage), giving the unit time to freely flank an enemy or to disengage from combat entirely. They can work entirely on their own, disrupting enemy movement and harassing their rear positions. Often landed behind enemy lines, Commandos have several powerful abilities that allow them to cause significant damage to enemy assets, then disappear into the fog of war to avoid enemy counter-attacks. This gives them superiority in almost all one-on-one infantry combat situations, especially if the Commandos can get in close and personal. This glider will produce one unit of Commandos automatically, and can produce more of these for 510 510, 6 6 if the sector it's in is ever connected directly to your HQ Territory.Ĭommandos are Elite Infantry, armed initially with Silenced Mk.II Sten Sub-Machine Guns (though they can pick up abandoned weapons).
Instead, the player must first land a Commando Glider on the map for the price of 560 560 (more than twice as expensive as an american riflemen squad). They are available only to the Royal Commandos Support company, and require the Glider-Borne Commandos upgrade.Ĭommandos are not produced by any of the British Command Trucks. The British Commandos in Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts are 6-man Infantry squads with superior fighting capabilities and a plethora of useful abilities. Army Commandos were highly-trained, and wore a red beret to distinguish them from the rank and file.
The result was the creation of independent Commando units, which were inserted in various ways into German-Occupied Europe to carry out raids and sabotage missions on enemy assets.
