Very nice! I'm very impressed. But that sniper doesn't look quite right imo. The sniper should have a long overcoat and an ushanka.

[221]

People seem to want everyone to have a ushanka^^. But I do think the sniper should have a cape, but a ushanka would be very hot in summer.

[TheAllMihtyOne]

well how hot do you realy thinkthe summer will get ower in russia? in siberia it is winter allmost all year round.

[221]

In moscow it can get 30 degrees in summer, quite hot in my opinion .

[TheAllMihtyOne]

is that celcius or farenheith?

[221]

Its in celcius. Didnt think it can be hot in Russia eh?  . You should take a trip to southern Russia in the summer, palms and blue water, its very nice. Just to bad that you cant travel free to ukraine and middle asian countries anymore, after Soviet union collapsed  .

[TheAllMihtyOne]

well the black sea is not some thing u think of as a tropical place but it realy is, a book i read about garman soldiers there ware some who was in russia and sudenly they found cammels, either they were werry lost or u must acsept that it is not so cold every were.

[vengefulnoob]

Russia Is the largest country in the world and the soviet union was even bigger: it covers such alarge area it's terrain and temperature vary hugely

[TheAllMihtyOne]

but though mos tof it is werry cold, the biggest part of russia is siberia and the ground there is frozen all year round, my fourth grade teacher told me that

[221]

Not all of siberia is permafrost, I would say about 4/6 of siberia is permafrost.

Btw on the conscripts information, when it says it can be upgraded with rifles. Does this mean not all of them will have rifles when constructed? I hope not.

[TheAllMihtyOne]

No! what makes you think that? i bet the uppgrade will give them dual weild, two rifles each for twice the fire power

[221]

Are you being sarcastic now? <.<

[TheAllMihtyOne]

ya i'm just kidding, but it sems cool if they didnt have one weapon each when you bought them.

[221]

I dont think they should. They only specific time infantry was without a rifle was during the moscow seige. The rest of the war there was no rifle shortage.
