Remember the old WW2 movies with commandos rowing into shore from a sub? How about we have the ability to use commandos and subs in coordination? Pick and drop off on enemy shores to establish an air base or something more devious, perhaps?

The submarines have a crew.

That would work with small groups of men, like they did in WWII. In this game a commando group has about 1,000 men.

Just like we did at D-Day. The two subs that went in helped locate good beach areas (hard enough for tanks) and directed the convoy.

I like the idea. Can't wait to see if they add marines and paratroop.
