USA Rangers with Thomson - USSR Regular with PPSH 41
http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9F%D0%9F%D0%A8-41 [nofollow]

About rifles, i think no difference what the model will be.
Please issued to all soldiers rifles. For info in 1943 most USSR soldiers have PPSH 41
And look at "Faces of war", "Men of war" games, i think you find more info.

Not need tune balance.

Sorry for my bad english, and good luck with mod.

[vengefulnoob]

All the uunits are individual and ingame, the mod will be released very soon, besides, the team don't want to duplicate or reskin vcoh stuff

[WartyX]

Why would we simply reskin the US faction?

We don't have any problems with making an entirely new and unique faction, in fact it is almost entirely implemented already since we are so far down the development route.

And Faces of War is hardly a game to base the Russian faction on, it offers completely different style of play to what we intend.

Because create new model need more time.

Yes, Faces of War another game, but you can see models and compare.
And in Faces of War all Russian models infantry, vehicles, truthfully look.

I think you want creat new game, but its mod.

[WartyX]

I think you underestimate us. We have already created the new faction, including all the models, we aren't just starting out. We have a large, talented, committed development team who have been operating for over two years.

Our reference for realism has been a combination of period photographs, actual blueprints, Soviet and German accounts of the war etc, not other games. In fact, we have several dedicated historians on the team.

Since when did a mod have to be basic? We can create a 'new game', so we are creating a new game 

[Dominic 'Dragon' Cassidy]

Well, we are creating a Free to Download Unofficial Expansion pack .
Which also means no extra crap, this is Company of Heroes: Eastern Front, period, and like OF added the British and PE with no wave of extras and huge changes, that is how we are working.


Note: This isn't just aimed at you, but the many people that want many changes.
