I wanted to desperately love Company of Heroes and 2 - but it was just too fast for me. I remember there was a mod to slow the speed down - but that stopped working at some point.

I never could go back to it just because of the speed of play

I would love to see a version implement a combat system similar to the XCOM turn-based tactical battles.

AngryJoe seems to like it, with the caveat that there's obviously still a lot of work that needs to be done.

Really excited about this one, in part because it's a theater that doesn't show up in gaming very often.

Also, it does sound like there could be at least an active pause during which you can give orders.

I'll admit, the game's apparent focus on the Allied invasion of Italy definitely has a certain appeal.  If the gameplay isn't overly "arcade-y" and/or too much of a click-fest, I might be taking a serious look at this one.  At the very least, it's staying on my radar for the time being.
