I think the addition of concrete pillboxes (spelling may be incorrect, sorry) would really add to the gameplay, adding a new dynamic to the idea of a 'base'.
The ability to use and position them in the mission editor would also be a great idea. Plus, if they were connectable with tunnels or passageways it would be possible to build something like to French 'Maginot Line'. It could also be used in a Vietnam setting, but with a more rustiic feel, of course.
