speaking of EA moderation, the multiplayer for this game had an innovative auto-censorship system built into its in-game chat. the expected profanity was automatically rendered as a bunch of asterisks, but so was stuff like "god", "jesus", and "allah". they also censored the names of certain members of the nazi leadership, which meant that friends and I spent most of the build-up portion of the multiplayer games trying to remember which war criminals made the cut and which didn't.

as a friend of mine pithily put it many years ago, "for an organization called the global liberation army, they seem to do a lot more war crimes than they do liberating"

FYI the description for the black market in the above post is borked.

The Commanche was probably the subject of more balance patches than any other unit. It's the kind of unit where you must have a plan to deal with them (concentrated AA will kill them quickly provided you see them coming) or they will utterly steamroller you.

yeah they strike me as being sort of like the starcraft mutalisk in that they're so strong and versatile that you have to balance the game around them
