Campaign Ranks & Advancement

 

In The Close Combat II game engine the soldiers ranks are identified with numbers from 0 through 9. The highest four (#9 - 6) are generally officer grade ranks. The middle ranks are usually Non Commissioned Officers (NCO). And the lower numbers are the enlisted men's ranks. 

Note that the lowest rank #0 (sometimes also rank #1) in many services is only a blank black field.

soldiers can be promoted when showing good performance (Kills, especially tank kills by infantry, acts of bravery, medals, etc) over a series of battles. Promotion generally occurs rather seldom though, Also a soldier cannot be promoted indefinitely.

A gap between the ranks means that the next higher rank cannot be achieved through promotion in Close Combat II.

  Example : An American Private (#1) can, in theory, be promoted all the way up to staff Sergeant (#4) but no further.

Therefore a Polish soldier born with the rank can never be anything else during his short CC2 life.
