Officers/ officer Corps

Suggestions

Ok so here is my suggestion

We add officers and give them the ability to call in reinforcements to the squad they are in and make it have a cool down of like maybe 2-3 minutes. Make them be available to every squad because well in real life every squad has an officer.

Then the squad are used to rank up the officer could be called the officer corps and also make a map table spawn in at every objective. Make its special ability is where they use the map table and when they walk up to it they see a overhead View of the whole battlefield and every friendly units position. Then make them be able to issue orders to units or the whole army in general. Also make it where if they follow the orders they get a boost in points or bonus points. However if they issue stupid orders you don’t have to follow them.

Now if you kill a officer while he is looking at the map on the map table make it leave the map on the table and you can look at it and get intelligence on the enemies position however it is a snap shot and it does not refresh when they move so it can become outdated.

Also about the reinforcements the officers can call in make them spawn at a decently large distance away

There are strategy games that let you do this - you might try the Combat Mission series by Battlefront - it already meets your needs.

Commanders perhaps could call in reinforcements to add to the total numbers…like in the Airfield map when you hit the balloons.

I don’t necessarily agree with this, but this has just given me an idea.

make it like with radio squads - officer squad can request reinforcements more frequently, while other squads have longer cooldown

and every reinforcement request adds spawns 4 troopers from the nearest spawn point, which will rush towards your squad (there should be a limit of total 4 troopers)

otherwise - i love the idea

i dont think the other part works well tho - they should only command their squad (how about we call them captains instead?) killing them and inspecting the map might be a bit overpowered and would surely cause hatred towards them - bad idea again
