Munition Question
« on: November 27, 2009, 09:37:02 PM »
I know that munition isn't used for different skills, so what will munition be used for with the soviets?

Is it used for the universal upgrades instead of fuel?

 Yea, that's what it very much looks like. Individual permanent
 upgrades (PPSH, etc) but not throwaway uses (Grenades).
 Perhaps the big universal upgrades, too. Apparently those
 are very expensive, and have to be chosen carefully?

I thought munition will also be used for tacticel aids like "for the motherland", "not one step back", "god of war"

Cooldowns instead of Costs

You still pay for upgrades as usual. But all Soviet use abilities, like handgrenades or artillery strikes, are not restricted by munitions costs, but by cooldown timers. For example the Commander’s light artillery strike never costs anything, but once used you have to wait ten minutes until you can use it again.
This is not rocket science to understand Mikhail.

Exact Quote From the guide.

Here is a new question, acording to this

Quote
No Retreat

By Order No. 00227 by the People’s Commissar of Defense of the USSR Comrade Stalin has ordered us that retreat is not an option anymore. Deserters will be shot. Soviet Union troops cannot retreat, but they are cheap and more of them just keep on coming. Not one step back!

Propaganda War and Force Retreat Will work?

if they work, the retreating units will be really shot?

i hope so (:

 Yea, that's been asked before, but never fully explained.
 It's only the unit's throwaway use of grenades/arty, etc
 which is cost-free. Upgrades, and doctrine-artillery, etc
 still uses munitions.
 
 As for the Force Retreat (as well as the officer's) I believe
 it's already been explained that yes, it will work. No, they
 won't be shot at. It's just that they won't have a VOLUNTARY retreat button. Which is different from being
 FORCED to retreat ;)
