Mission system, squads and specialisation


I've been wondering over the past week about the mission system, squads and character customisation and how it all meshes together.

The mission system is replacing the platoon, allowing commanders to direct any number of squads around the continent to perform various tasks, mainly involving capturing or defending territories or parts of facilities.

Now as a commander you will be able to set missions, but will you be able to direct them at specific squads?

And as a squad leader, my squad may be specialised mainly in tanks or aircraft, light assault or infiltration... would this information be available to commanders so he knows what troops he has at his disposal?

I guess I am worried that the command system will be very dumbed down; set a mission then someone picks it up, with no more interaction than that between the commander and the troops he is leading.
