Command delay

Will this game feature a delay on commands like Combat Mission did?
If so:
-is the delay constant like in CMBO or increasing with number of waypoints as CMBB and CMAK
-if the latter, what is the maximum delay when ordering a green T-34 down a curved road?
Thanks

Yes, but it's pretty straightforward. The Soviet side has a command delay of a phase (40 seconds) if it changes from one order "type" to another. For example, changing from one movement order to another would not cause the delay, but changing from move to fire or fire to move types would. Envision the guy waving his flags or shouting at his men. There is no delay for the German side in terms of on-field commands.

You got my money also.
I would like the command delay to be either a known quantity (for units well within C&C) or an unknown quantity (represented by a ?) for units that are well away from direct LOS of platoon HQ or other platoon elements. This could be an optional realism level of course.
Good luck with this game.
