Red Army Suggestions / General Ideas
« on: May 13, 2010, 05:37:35 AM »
So I was listening to some history lectures and reading some stuff. Keep in mind, I have not played the mod, so may suggest some redundant stuff.
I read a cool\sad story about a Soviet tank driver who was fighting the Germans (to their surprise) with an outdated tank... 1.... by shooting them with a pistol because the tank was outdated... 2 and was also fighting without legs. This heroism contradicts the fighting the Germans were expecting. I mean I'm pretty sure the Germans thought it was going to be a walk in the park. They were expecting a fight like Tannenberg where the Russian army just collapsed and fled after incurring a couple million losses.
Instead Russians tended to fight with an increasing fanaticism and heroism.
So I guess when it comes to the game...
Russia spent a lot of money on tanks. So it is safe to say that one of their specializations should be tank skills....
Maybe a skill where your tanks will come back to life briefly to fire away a few shots....
Soviet artillery is good.
Contrary to shit you hear like "In Stalingrad, every two Soviet soldiers had a rifle and a clip."
While this occurred, Russians were still outproducing Germans in everything by at least 50%. Meaning while they industrially outpower Germany 2 to 1, the Germans were preparing for war with Russia for awhile, while Russia... was not...
So in the game Russia should be able to make a lot more, on a lot quicker notice.
Thanks
