Company of Heroes

Company of Heroes is a 3D RTS game set in WW2. The game revolves about control points (which gives you resources) and tactical management of individual units. While I'm not really into RTS since Starcraft, I think this one is really nice.

I've tried about every "acclaimed" RTS, but most of them are either way too fast or only about who can gather resources the fastest (click click click), or where the game revolves about nothing more than sending the most units in. What makes this game different is that you can only build a small number of units (a company, sort of). While the number increases for every control point, you're still limited. So you value each unit you already have, which suits my playing style perfectly.

Anyone else playing this? The base game should be available really cheap, I got it for free with my graphics card. There's also a stand alone expansion, with completely different gameplay.
