I'm sure he won't be disappointed, should he feel the need to satisfy his desire.
Just a note. If I were to make a comparison with any other tac level game, then I would say that it reminds me of some aspects of OST, but is very dissimilar to CoH.
It really is a unique system though, and stands on its own feet without really attempting to copy any other system. The method of selecting forces alone make this worth getting as it really extends the playablity of the game more than any other similar game of the scale that I have ever played.
