I reached Moscow
The following problems have occurred:
1. The characters don't get photos (apparently they're not properly linked)
2. It is not possible to buy a new unit during the game, the purchase takes place, the prestige is removed, but there is no unit in the reserve list (there are free slots). And Soviet missions are tied to reserves.
This is the hotfix for those Soviet Corps campaign issues reported by Anderkav.
The Soviet random hero name fix only works for new heroes.
And the fix for deploying units purchased during a scenario only works after a scenario transition. Since the scenario file is only loaded and thus checked when a scenario is first started.
SU-6 is still missing switch indicators and big picture. Will do that once more new units are added, probably next update.
