Happy New Year COH Fans!

Process Overview

Players are invited to submit their proposals (more on that below).



Submissions will close on January 25th.



The Community Balance and Mod Team will assess proposals and pick the most promising as a basis to work from.



The balance team will present the two best proposals per faction for community voting. The wider community will be allowed to vote for their favorite selected commander for each faction.



The Community Team will discuss, test and iterate on the winning proposals.



When we feel designs are refined enough, we will release the first mod for wider community testing and feedback.



Subsequent mods will be released based on said feedback.



Once we’ve reached Good Spot ™ status, we will start creating the live build for this update.



We are currently targeting this update for April/ May implementation.



Submission guidelines

Each player can submit one proposal per faction. Please use the appropriate threads on coh2.org or on relic offical forum. These threads are for submissions only.



Discussion of submissions should take place in separate threads so that submissions are easy to reference.



Players must only use units, abilities or assets which already exist in the game, and are fully functional. (The Hetzer is not an option as it is missing animations.)



Some players have asked about captured equipment. This is a possibility but should be sensible, and thematically / historically appropriate.



If you have already submitted an idea elsewhere, please repost to the official threads.



Requirements and Rational

The name and theme of your proposed Commander.

What new strategies/ options does this Commander add to this faction?



Any historical basis, or additional context/ rational you wish to provide.



Here you can find the threads for your submissions:
