Company of Heroes 3: Final Stand

I've played at least 2-3 rounds with each faction, DAK is at 3,000+ perk points and the UKF are one match away from getting their ultimate perk (which took longer than the 2 hours it shows for Final Stand itself, as I've been playing with the base game). Once the developers patched in matchmaking, I've only played a couple solo runs and have been doing co-op primarily which has been fun. The game tasks you with trying to survive waves of enemies, plus bosses (watch out for those sniper bosses!), with whatever units and abilities you happen to draw, which is a delightful change of pace from the usual experience we've had in the base game. The Perks system does provide a unique feel to each faction on top of their already unique units and Abilities, for example I chose to level up DAK first because their ultimate perk, which provides weapons the players can equip when bosses are defeated, sounded the most intriguing for co-op play. Sometimes even the shared perks which every faction has will have a unique little touch for a specific faction, like DAK can instantly spawn their units with their version of the unit training time perk while the British get to pick from an additional technology option. The roguelite customize-your-own-battle group mechanics lead to some interesting - and I'm sure frustrating at times on higher difficulties - gameplay. You don't always get what you might want, but can usually make do. In one match as the British I was presented the choice of the DIngo vehicle so I grabbed it as I hadn't used it yet, and my next option was for an armoured car, so I picked that too and had a highly mobile force that match. In a match today I was given the option for a Sniper unit, which is a precarious play as they are expensive to produce and can be defeated with ease, but it worked out due to my previous infantry choice and my co-op teammate providing a solid frontline while the Snipers were placed in the buildings behind them. Overall it's been a fun experience with maybe a handful of bugs that I've seen (from what I can recall there's been some Bazookas that drop and can't be picked up, some Buildings on the map aren't counted as Buildings for Abilities, and the worst one is some kind of progression bug where it doesn't properly save your map completion/perk point gains). I hope the developers decide to spend some Manpower and Munitions on fleshing it out some more, as they certainly have a good framework to expand upon, and the roguelite system should allow them more freedom in adding units such as the existing campaign-only assets. Thinking about the DAK weapon perk and the Sniper match, something I would love to see would be a perk system for the units. Increase squad sizes, add weapon slots, give options for Battlegroup perks like scoped rifles for Panzergrenadiers, etc. It is a bit of a grind to knock out the 3,000 perk point challenges (which provide the special boss unit cosmetics Final Stand includes), so anything that alters the gameplay and helps keep it from becoming stale would be nice, and unfortunately I believe we can not mod it so the final fate of Final Stand is is in the hands of the developers.
