I've only played the SP campaign. It's basically Saving Private Ryan - The Video Game but that's no bad thing.

It wouldn't quite be fair to say CoH = DoW in WW2, but it's not far off the truth either. IIRC the only new feature in CoH is the destructable terrain. Buildings and cover can be destroyed and new cover can be formed by craters and rubble, but the amount that the physical battlefield can really change (in gameplay terms rather than visual terms) is actually pretty limited.

IMO, if you're looking for a new twist on DoW then CoH is good. If you never played DoW then CoH is awesome.
