Except for the fact that I started out with some decent mission suuports this time, it felt like the first time I ever played this game online: all my units were recruits, I'm playin with people that I don't know/have played against. And most of my enemies still had their original battalions.
Thank God I learn quick...

yeap, this game it's a real bitch with new players, go in 4v4 and add to your friend list the guys that you play good with.
