I just recently acquired this game, but more so I recently downloaded the 4.5 patch. And I didn't see within read me the following changes:
1. Squad selection is preselected and statically assigned (Meaning I can't change my soldier or equipment layout before the battle)
2. No Soldier Statistics after the battle

With the older Close Combat Invasion Normandy at the end of the each battle you can see the statistics of how your soldiers and the enemy's soldiers performed. Including their kills, bravery and medals achieved.
I'm I missing something? Did my patch not install properly? Or is that the new game design?

with the 4.5.07b patch

My game doesn't have fixed Battle Group

unless

1. I play Classic CC4
2. I download the "Locked Battle Group" mod http://closecombat.matrixgames.com/WaR/WaRmods.html


After Battle I have all soldier info (see pic)

So, where do I change my game type to Classic CC4? Or is that a different version from Wacht Am Rhein?

Click on Play Classic CC4 to play classic CC4

I've played the classic and the regular wacht am rhein. And on my classic I can change the unit setup. But no statistics at the end. And I just played a new battle? So, with the Mod will that remove the locked battle? Or enable it?

My game version 4.50

It's not a mod it's an official update.

I'm downloading it now... How are you able to play MP? Is there a mod for that? I wouldn't love to play you online if possible.

You are mistaken.  You can not change the battle group in Classic CC4.  Never could and never will.  You can change the battle group in CC WaR.

Both can be played MP over LAN or TCP/IP.  There is no mod for that, it is a feature of the game.  There are a few game lobbys about and after you install the updates you will have the menu option for Battle HQ that you see as the third option in Andrew's image above as a way to find opponents.  There are other options.  Having a VOIP application like TeamSpeak or Skype helps, but is not required.

 I wouldn't love to play you online if possible.

Excellent... At least you know how to read. And yes, I was able to get all the features you mentioned. Happy Hunting.
