Will the Russians actually speak Russian...or crappy English?  And if in the English version of this mod, the Russians speak Rusky-English, will it be possible to take the speech files from the Russian version of this mod so the Soviets actually speak Russian?  My Germans currently speak German and Allies speak English.

They said they took the Russian sound files from COH for the Russians in the mod. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

All speeches have been taking from vanilla factions in Russian. So yes, they all speak Russian, but you might hear occasional 'sherman', 'greyhound' or something similar.

 Russia faction will speak 'Russian 'american faction-eze' ;)

 Such as : We have our shermans and greyhounds! Our Pershing
 cannot be beaten! Thanks to god and President Reagan! We
 shall push the jerries back!... ... in russian ;)

 PTRD squads will call their weapons bazookas... in russian...
 See? But, no it won't be crappy english :) Hopy happy :)

Why is this important? Wehr and PE speak German-accented English. Russian-accented English is pretty cool IMO.

 Well, he has his tastes. You can copy paste german-german,
 etc on top of 'english' german accented german troops, so...
 Heck, I went nuts when my americans spoke french. I fixed
 that pretty quick ;)

 It would be SUPER nice if we could have russian-soviet and
 english-soviet but I'm fine with american russian soviets in
 the meantime, but would DEFINITIVELY be something to look
 into. I've already offered to get the voices down in russian-
 accented french ;)

 Focus on getting mod out, first!
 If people want to help pitch in, by all means!
 Not happy ? Make your own voices/accents. It's not
 that difficult. And share it if it's good! :)

 Whatever works... works ;)

Agreed. I kinda like the accented English...that way I know what the hell is being said without it taking much away from ambiance. (Although I understand if you're really particular about "accuracy" and all...in which case many movies must suck for you).

My Germans currently speak German and Allies speak English.

And Chancellor, curious how you did this? Or am I completely ignorant and there's an option in-game?

 You... can... 'mod' the game ;) Lol.
 For example, my game version is french :)
 I take american version and COPY the speech of USA
 so that my US troops stop speaking french and start
 speaking american.
 Can do same for using russian (*USA*) sound files and
 soon my USA troops would start speaking russian :
 'Komrades! It's so great to be amerikan! Send that Sherman
 tank ahead!!!' (In american-accented russian) ;)

Theres a lot of things you can do to make your CoH the way you want it to be without sacrificing online multiplayer/automatch compatibility, such as custom skins or even units replacing other units...for example I can get the Stuka to replace the PE Henschel.  But if you just want the sound files to be different, Loup pretty much summed it all up.

The WW2/Archives folder in your CoH directory has the sound files.  For example, I downloaded the German speech files WW2AxisSpeechGerman and renamed it to WW2AxisSpeechEnglish, and then replaced my original copy.  This file changes the Werhmacht speech files.

Its actually not worth the trouble yet.  The Stuka model isn't 100% perfected yet.  I'd wait a while if I were you.

 The Iron Cross mod in-game Stuka looks pretty damn
 perfected to me ;)

The Russian language is awesome, and making a Soviet Faction it would be a sin to make them speak English!

 I think USA should speak german, and german speak Hebrew ;)
 I'm fine with in-game soviets speaking
 1) Russian language 'American faction'
 2) Russian language 'Soviet faction'
 3) ENGLISH language 'soviet faction' with russian accents ;)
 4) GERMAN language 'soviet faction' with russian accents ;)
 5) FRENCH language 'soviet faction' with russian accents ;)
 etc ;)
