Description
HATED COMPANY COMMANDER
The Epic Battleground Callout Command Panel
"When you need to be Rdy, be Hated."
Developed by Rdy, Guild Leader of Hated Gaming
🏴 About the Addon
Formerly HG Epic BG Leader, rebuilt from the ground up as Hated Company Commander. It is a combat-safe callout panel for battleground raid leaders: one tab per epic battleground, each a grid of one-click buttons that broadcast a short, pre-written strategy line to the right chat channel.
No typing mid-fight. No fumbling macros. Click Open Refinery and the raid hears "All on Shenzar Refinery first, it auto-damages their base." The panel picks the channel for you: raid warning when you lead, instance chat otherwise, and it prints locally when you are solo so nothing leaks to say chat.
Every callout is fully editable, and the defaults are real strategy for the current epic battleground pool, tuned to your faction.

📊 Pro-Tips
🎙️ Set your channel before the game starts
Watch the Callouts send to line at the top of the panel. If it does not say Raid warning, ask for lead or assist before the gates open so every call lands as a warning instead of getting buried in instance chat.
⚔️ Prep the other faction
Flip the Alliance / Horde switch to load the other side's default callouts. Tabs you have edited yourself are left alone, so your custom lines survive the switch. There is also a Faction dropdown in options.
📌 Dock it and forget it
Drop the window against a screen edge, collapse it, and the flashing red pull-tab is all that shows. One click brings the panel back when it is time to make a call, then one more click hides it again.
🏰 Wintergrasp both ways
The Attack and Defend callout sets are completely different. Set the switch on the Wintergrasp tab to match which side of the fortress you spawned on before your first call.
✏️ Make it yours
Right click any callout to edit it, or use Add for a new one. The message is flattened to a single line on save, so paste in whatever you want. Per-tab Reset callouts lives in options, out of misclick range.
🗺️ Roadmap
| Mode | Status |
|---|---|
| 🥊 Battleground Blitz | Planned. An 8v8 rated tab group with tighter target-priority, kill-order and cap-timing callouts. |
| 🔁 Solo Shuffle | Planned. Round-based opener, kill, peel and crowd-control callouts for the arena lobby. |
The tab and callout system is already built with a mode dimension, so both are additive.
🤝 Community, Credits & Support
In a forty-player battleground, the raid that hears one clear call every fight beats the raid that argues about it. Hated Company Commander puts that call on a button so your leader can spend the game leading instead of typing.
Built on the bones of HG Epic BG Leader.
