Hi, here some more pictures of the Sevastopol siege:

The Romanian Regina Maria (and some italian aships) is trying to prevent the soviet forces to relief the city
Image

The battle near Maxim Gorky I has started
Image

After heavy fighting, the soviet forces have retreated to the city itself
Image

Gorky I continues resisting! :P
Image

And here Guille, the Gorky icon:
Image
I was thinking if you could try some different, not the standard concrete base we see in the game. The real fort didn´t have any. Anyway, your help is always welcome :)

And here a minor modification I made to the T-34-41. I modified the original icon, which is the same as the T-34-40, to make it more accurate: the cannon welding to the turret:
Image
I also added the T-34-42, in this case is the same icon as the new T-34-41.

Thanks for the icon, mate! Yes, I was planning to add a much less conspicuous concrete base to that fortification, not merely puttin it on the regular one... Stay tuned!

Gorky will never fall! 8) . But it did after all :| , revenge will come in 1944.

But right now we are in Sinyavino, trying to break the Leningrad blockade, there is some fierce fighting around Kruglaya Grove!
Image

And at the same time shock forces from Leningrad try to establish a bridgehead at the other side of the Neva, it seems everything okay.... for now:

Oh, will it just?

Let's see if this is a more compelling argument:

I am making the "Stalingrad of the north" scenario, in other words, the battle for Velikiye Luki. It´s going to be a race against time :twisted:

And here some screenshots from my own "alpha testing" of the Operation Mars scenario:

Hi everyone. I have an idea regarding the SU-152 and ISU-152. The game make a strange separation between them, one for AT and the other for artillery (I think).
As in real life both models were used as tank destroyer and artillery units, I was thinking to made them available in both categories as upgradeable units: SU-152 -> ISU-152.

What do you think about this?.
Regards.

Hi people. I was wondering about the conscript concept applied in the original game. From my point of view it doesnt make any sense to have the Conscripts unit just for the Soviet side, I mean, almost every country during the whole conflict had conscription. If we are going to apply that concept, USA, UK and Germany should have conscript units...
My solution is this: change the conscript unit in favor of Soviet Riflemen or just remove them forever as Regular Inf should be the unit fulfilling that role.

Conscript -> Riflemen

or

Conscript -> Regular Inf
Regular Inf -> Riflemen

What do you think of these ideas?.

Best regards.
