Trust me Veg, you will like WIC. I know how much you like SC, CC3, and DOW, so I'm 99.999 % sure you will like WIC. It' like an OFP/ArmA/BF2 RTS.
It's fast paced, and missions last from as low as 6 minutes (can't remember how we did so well, but it was fast) to 40 minutes. Gator and I played a mission where we had one pixel left on the map control meter (A little bar that moves in the direction of which side has more control of the map). We managed to regain control of a few strategic points, and pushed the computer back until we beat the map with something like 4 minutes remaining.
There is a point limit for requisitioning units, so there is no advantage to one role or the other. Meaning, no tank rushes or the like. I like to play as the Air Role, and at most, I can afford (4) heavy gunships (Apaches on USA), one Bradley type vehicle, and any units you can purchase from Tactical Aid points (Not counted towards your req points). Without you playing the game, it's difficult to explain the Tactical Aid system. As you kill enemy units, you rack up Tactical Aid points. For example, if you manage to save up 80 Tactical Aid points you can drop a small Tactical Nuke (the explosions are insane, if you thought the Nukes in SC were big, heh just wait).

welllsince I have to much BAD crap with UPs (tho mostlay in them being jackassess when crossing the border) I am more inclined to use others over UPS. When they go to canada they WAY overcharge on the contents in many casess charging you as much as the item is worth when you get it in what they call taxes. BUT USPS going to canada is not near as bad. Many US retailers have given up on UPS shipping to canada because of customer complaints or at least say use another.
