The answer is, "it depends". 

The basic rulebook contains the lists for 1944-45 northwest Europe and eastern front.
The Blitzkrieg handbook has lists for France and the Low Countries in 1940.
The Far East handbook has lists for British Empire, Dutch Empire and Japanese.

There used to be extensive lists available on the TFL forum https://toofatlardies.co.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=16&sid=09b8c3bdd5f5f8346aa01771e8fd05ad
Tragically, these were wiped out recently when the forum crashed and had to be relaunched.  But if you are looking for a particular list, I would recommend to ask there first.

Thanks. Well I don't have the game rulebook anymore, but was planning on ordering the new one when the pdf only is available. I wanted to teach my group the rules using their Germans and Americans, so the rules will probably have those again I suspect. My collection is for Burma and the Islands, so I would need the Commonwealth, Japan, and USMC lists.

Might be worth checking out the files section on the CoC Facebook page.

Second edition CoC is supposed to be released on the 28th so you won't need to wait very long for the PDF, in theory at least  ;)

TFL tries to follow historical OOBs as closely as possible so you won't go wrong if you can find historical references to follow.  As for the Pacific, that will be the next release for CoC, scheduled for later this year.  The current Far East handbook is really focussed on British and Dutch campaigns - so you'll be set for Burma but you'll need to wait before you can go island hopping with the Marines!

Great. Thanks. Finishing up my Commonwealth stuff and starting on my Japanese.  By the time I get around to marines, they may have that out too.  Feels good to finally get this 20mm stuff on the table after buying them over a decade ago. 

BTW anybody out there have a good Kohima scenario?  I have always wanted to do the tennis court. I think it might make a good convention game.

If you have no luck looking (or it’s easier) give me a shout as I’ve probably got most of them somewhere.

Thanks all. I think I was able to get most everything I needed on the facebook page files.

From TFL: [~0900z, 27 May]
The advanced order options have been taken down and today we are having a big product restructure.  That means you won't be able to order Chain of Command now until tomorrow.  The PDFs will release tomorrow, hopefully at midnight UK time.  That's what happened with Midgard and the web people tell me it will be the same again.  After last year's fun with "web people", I can only hope they are right...
