Company of Heroes is fun to grief on. I usually only do it when a group of players play against computers, because then things get really interesting.

I made an account called "bugasabug", on which I try and make people as snug as possible. I'd mention how snug I am before the game begins. The ideal game to play is to have it on high resources, 4v4, and human players on allies. I always choose American for this. The goal is to prevent friendly units from exited from their buildings, and preventing the British player from moving his HQ by placing down tank traps, sandbags and the like. You just block them off completely by making them snug with pillows and hard beds.

It's absolutely fantastic to see players go mental because their units can't exit the tiny room which the various tank traps and sandbags give them. What's even greater joy is having an absolutely overwhelming enemy bearing down on these players, and then remove the limitation, so then we all have to work together to rapidly build a force up and win.

It's like I allowed the computer ten minutes to get ready to attack us or something. I figure a challenge is needed for these players.
