| rdfs:comment | - It is no secret that the British order of battle is centered primarily around their ability to defend their own territory. This is another throw-back to the First World War, where entire armies entrenched themselves and fought massive battles over a few miles of land. When British tanks first appeared during that war, they allowed breaking the enemy's fortifications, and eventually won the war. In Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts, the British use this same war-winning tactic of massively fortifying captured ground and then using powerful armor units to get more ground, fortify that, and repeat the cycle over and over.

| Name | |
| rightbranch 3 data | - Allows calling in a Churchill Crocodile, which is basically a Churchill Tank with an additional flame-thrower for added anti-infantry strength.
|
| leftbranch 3 data | - Improves all British command trucks. It increases the speed at which all Trucks produce units, reduces damage taken by trucks, and increases the amount of resources the trucks gather from Fuel and Munitions sectors. Also, each truck provides +5 Munitions and +6 Population Cap points just by existing.

| leftbranch 2 data | - Allows all British tanks to entrench themselves in sand bags, increasing their armor and reducing damage taken from all sources. This entrenchment makes the tank temporarily immobile.
|
| leftbranch 1 data | - Increases the Maximum Health of all British Defensive Structures by 50%, and reduces the amount of damage they receive from all sources by 25%.

| abstract | - It is no secret that the British order of battle is centered primarily around their ability to defend their own territory. This is another throw-back to the First World War, where entire armies entrenched themselves and fought massive battles over a few miles of land. When British tanks first appeared during that war, they allowed breaking the enemy's fortifications, and eventually won the war. In Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts, the British use this same war-winning tactic of massively fortifying captured ground and then using powerful armor units to get more ground, fortify that, and repeat the cycle over and over. The Royal Engineers Support tech tree is geared precisely to bolster the effectiveness of this tactic. On the one hand, it reinforces all British fortifications, making them extremely resistant to attacks. It then increases British resource-gathering speed, allowing the Brits to accumulate the massive resources required to build a powerful armoured assault force. It even provides British tanks with the ability to entrench themselves as part of the defensive line, or to do so on attacks to draw enemy fire while other units surround and destroy the enemy. Furthermore, this Command Tree makes available three unique British armored units, each based around the Churchill Tank hull - a slow but heavily-armored tank that does not submit easily under enemy fire. These tanks often lead the British assault, absorbing fire and providing support against enemy infantry. Overall, the Royal Engineers Support Command Tree bolsters the player's offensive and defensive properties almost equally, if used right. It capitalizes on enhancing the fundamental qualities of the British army. The result is often a slower game, with the British holding their ground against significant opposition, culminating with extremely powerful strikes to cripple the enemy until he submits. As a result, non-British players often find that this Command Tree makes the British player very difficult to fight - though somewhat tedious.
