I have to agree, the infantry dies very fast in this version, too fast for my taste. The vanilla zoom contributes to that. Your inf. starts to die because the range of vision of most units is higher than the players view screen. by the time you are able to identify the thread your whole squad is already dead. Thats game breaking. Apart from that, the game plays allot faster than the previous versions because tanks don't cost manpower anymore. Considering the allied material superiority thats a good thing but playing the germans who couln't easily replace there tanks losses it just feels wrong and not historically correct. Tanks now also simply waste the infantry, even the at-squads. those are almost useless now when not in an ambush position. so good luck taking those out when you're hard pressed and out of fuel.
With that said, I'm going back to playing Normandy 2.1 if i can find it, or even blitzkrieg (the dead seem to live quite long these days :D )
