I doubt this is legal. Making a free game/mod in another engine would be okay-ish (see Renegade-X based on Command & Conquer: Renegade from 2002), but asking for funds is a no-no unless permitted by the owners of the series (I've only seen that go through once with CarBot's StarCrafts mod for SC2 because Blizzard likes him).

The name "Commandos" is purely indicative, but somehow I have to put a reference to the original game. If Pyro prohibits the use of the name simply we will call it differently.
Unreal Engine is the best choice for a project like that, it's free and it's powerful, we don't need a custom engine (It's not worth it and will cost a lot!)

I doubt there is any chance pyro would let you use the "Commandos" name unless you offered them a big sum of money for it and buy it from them

ZAf word, commandos, you know. It's what the Boer resistance members called themselves against the British. I doubt anyone could force anyone else not to use it. Adding BEL or using game art is somefing else completely.
