Notes

  • There are numerous mistakes in the CMDList output, and even in various command, error, and item descriptions. This Wiki endeavors to correct those mistakes; so when in doubt, trust the Wiki over the game's descriptions.
  • Update 6/2022: Many of the newly added slash commands were found in @Shenanigunner's excellent COH Technical Reference Guide, by far the most useful and complete list of slash commands that exists (other than this Wiki, of course). Thank you.
