I don't really have any other ideas, no - aside from the idea that people shouldn't be god-moddy douchebags. :PUh, I think Captains and Soldiers as PCs could be cool. As in, you could have a few people playing as soldiers in a Platoon, and another as that Platoon's Captain - but you could also have another Platoon completely filled with NPC Soldiers which could be led by a PC Captain, or even a PC Soldier in a platoon led by an NPC Captain. Mix things up, keep it interesting, y'know?

Sure, I thought about that, but there are two problems: first, people would like to be captains rather than ordered by someone. Currently, there's no downside to being a Cpt., too, so platoons would be empty of soldier PCs and devoid of purpose. Second, since there are so many nations to play as, I have a fear that you'll have people picking "popular nations" (UK, Germany, France etc) while the smaller nations wouldn't have many people (Belgium, Astro-hungry, etc). 

[i]So why not have an "Axis" or "Allies" system instead of PCs picking individual nations?[/i]

Because I want the added depth and remove the genericity, and creating interaction between PCs of different countries.
