Some variants as Guards Cavalry can be added later if there is a need for them and their statistics aproved them or they could be a part of SE units for example. Divisions from Siberia are regular infantry and Naval infantry would be for flavour mostly so not high priority, both are not included. I was undecided for Maxim MG infantry as counterpart for other heavy weapons infantries but Guards are playing that role already. Later variant more than early one but early one has alternative choice in SMG infantry while in the same time they differentiate enough so by adding one more it would be hard keeping them equally appealing.

T-28 has good date of appereance for early war, IS-3 for hypothetical battle and T-34-57 fills gap for better tank in 1943.

Recon class is underrepresented at the moment, couple of tank scouts and soft target scouts come handy to fill it.

Anti-Tanks in their self propelled mode for early war. Same goes for artillery with adition of heavy gun, switcher and rather cool rocket-tank. Switchable 76mm is a good idea but for now undecided about it because of balance impact on previous scenarios.

Anti-Aircraft palette filled with self propelled variants.

Transport units consists of diferent movement types variants, air, horse, tracked, halftracked, wheeled.

For fighters addition of land lease equipment. La5FN is a possibility but it depends on statistics distribution between it and other fighters preceding and succeeding it. Bombers are mix of soviet and land lease variants.

Finish troops would contain basic weapons from most important defensive classes if airplanes are added they will be reused from available models like M.S. 406 and Blenheim.

It's too poor set of units
I am disappointed

[Blitz1945]

Brazenman, they have not started beta on this and are catching breath after Sea Lion I am guessing. But, boy I hope it's soon!!

[goose_2]

Before Christmas?
That would make a sweet gift.

[uzbek2012]

Against the backdrop of current policies and various local armed conflicts it's time to make DLC for modern subjects ) Russia in Crimea and Syria , not some utopian additions to the theme on Sea lions and perversions with the Siberian infantry )


PS. The Soviet hope the company will be released before the end of the year !?

На фоне современной политики и различных локальных вооруженых конфликтов пора делать DLC на современную тематику ) Россия в Крыму и Сирии , а не какие то утопические дополнения на тему не состоявшихся Морских Львов и извращений с Сибирской пехотой )


P.s. Надеюсь советская компания все же выйдет до конца года !?

[Brenmusik]

Careful now I hear the sound of a thread locking

[tenshin111]

and perversions with the Siberian infantry

Uzbek, you seem to suffer from perversions with posting too many images. Maybe calm down a little?

[IainMcNeil]

Soviet Corps is about WW2 and so any games set in a different time period would not be covered here. If someone wants to create mods that's fine and they should be discussed in their own threads, but its nothing to do with Soviet Corps.

Soviet Corps will be entering beta soon but release will be early next year.

I hope there'll be a chance to apply for beta tests? I bought the Steam version only in late August but already clocked in 230h So you can count on my dedication!

[Blitz1945]

I am ready as well! I tested all of them but Sea Lion...
I am very hopeful to be in on this one!!

already clocked in 230h

Amateur
Just kidding

[Stephen1024]

Think goose trying get his goose cooked haha

I got 677 hours on current install had nearly 1000 hours on install before the game to addictive, nearest other game is order of battle pacific which I got about 300 hours on.

Wait till you start mod your own army and play some mods from here to.

I think its the ease at which you can play game but it is also technical to, then there mixed parts the game and the modding add so many great sides to it.

Look at what there is

Panzer corps
Grand campaign which branches east and west, now there new sealion branch
Allied corps
Afrika korps
Ability mod your own army
Other peoples mods

So guess welcome to family and think slitherine need start clinic for us Panzer addicts

"Honey, I just need to capture one last strategic objective and victory will be mine! Then we can go shopping" haha

But let's not derail the topic too much

[tenshin111]

Back on the topic - I'm glad to see proper heavy artillery in the units lists (203mm, assuming range 4 in that case). Switchable KV-2 is also nice.

Now I wonder, if we're gonna get some "what-if" possibilities in this campaign, for example pushing the western allies out from the continental Europe in 1945 or maybe invading Finland and then a follow-up invasion on Sweden to capture the iron mine in Kiruna and thus denying the Germans vital resources.

[Blitz1945]

There are an abundant amount of Soviet what if's I think!
Also, attacks in the east in Manchuria and Korea.

[Blitz1945]

They could be pre Barbarossa too like the attack on the Japanese forces in 39.

[goose_2]

I think we will all be disappointed if there is not a Finland scenario.

[Blitz1945]

I agree. You need some time to build a few core troops before the big show starts. Troops should be limited and exp. capped though.
