I don't even think I understand most of what you just wrote bro.

Anyway, I just don't like such posts, suggesting units based mainly on nationality is just plain stupid.

well pls i know i might be the only person for this but i think that naval infantry dont fit in right to soviets so maybe instead of them


3 man squad (instead of naval inf in propagand startegy )
wich starts armed with 2 Mosin Nagats and 1 PPSh-41 Sub-machinegun and could be upgraded For 75 munitions
with: 2 SVT-40 and dp-28

they would be for breaking through enemy lines
would be able to throw anti-inf grenades
once vet 2 unsupressable
once vet 3 additional member of the squad with mosin-nagat
if squad is upgraded then with SVT-40 ???

one of the squad members can be a woman ???
Would cost 385 manpower 30 reinforce and 2CP ????

And pls do not fukin give out ye

I dont really see the point. Because your polish suggestion. Well, They aint special in anyway. You have to think that each unit in COH has to be unique in its own way. Just like you and me : D <3

Lets go through it. Your Polish red army soldiers are like ordinary strelkys? Only because they are polish doesent mean they run around in polish uniforms or something. No, they wear ordinary soviet uniforms. ( which imo is really boring.) The naval infantry however run arounds in black seamans uniforms rocking the party out of germans! XD They are both unique in there performance (Dp28 and PTRS rifles together. No other units have this.) And apperance because nobody except the naval infantry did wear those uniforms in the war.

Your idea is great. Sure, but not for EF. They sound more like a Men of war unit . Especially when one of COH:EF rules is NO COUNTRY NAMES. We have foreign support for the ostheer. And thats enough. Because in the end. People are going to want the sniper to be called, TEXAS SNIPER or the sappers to be called SCOTTISH SAPPERS.

Many of these units you can hear on there voice which country they are from. And thats enough.
(btw off topic, doesent the british rifleman have polish flags on their helmets? Indicating they are from a polish unit?)

To put it in short. Your suggestion already exist almost. The only thing missing is the name Polish. And we will never, how much we ever want. Get that kind of name on the units ;/

However, you can always give more suggestions on units. Keep it upp ^^ However, you can say here on the forum. They are polish , but they will be called red army voulenteers or something . But. You will have to be ready that many people are going to critize your suggestions (been there myself.) because many of the units people suggest doesnt fill anything to the game. COH and COH:ef arent exactly game focus on the historic realism.

I would rather describe them like.. Dawn of war with a WW2 theme? XD

Have a good day !

here you are :)

Long-term forum users know that I'm from Poland, and this how I see this topic:

1. EF adds two armies: Soviets and Ostheer. No place for Polish army here.
2. LWP ( Polish People's Army) was based on Soviet Guard Divisons, so it means they had moar equipment and tanks. But they still used 100% of soviet weapon
3. They fought alongside Red Army, under STAVKA's command.
4. Most of their officers were communists or russian officers assigned by Stalin.
5. I don't understand this quite well, but where's the point of arguing here? I mean devs clearly stated that there won't be any country-named units either in Ostheer or in SU.

Summary: if you want to play as Polish People's Army, turn off your speaker and imagine they speak polish. And that's all.

6. If you w

TBFH, I doubt the Poles would be as well equipped as a Guards division. The (in some cases not so) infamous 13th Guards Rifle Division fought through Stalingrad and was one of the few units to gain considerable ground despite atrocious losses (estimates are 198-250 survivors in the entire division at the battle's closing). Most Guardsmen (I have no idea what 'Guards' is in Russian or what the plural would be) were very well trained by even western standards and were armed with exceptional amounts of SVT-40s, improved iterations of the TT-33 which was more commonly issued then in other units, pre-1941 M1938 Mosin-Nagant rifles (higher manufacturing quality due to lack of cost cutting production measures) or the M1936/41 'Carbine' Mosin-Nagant with permanently affixed bayonet--along with plenty of DP-28s, PPsHs in all forms, and many of the few lend leased western anti tank weapon such as the M9A1 bazooka and as many PTRS-41s as the unit could handle--when, at any point, would a Polish unit, which was regarded as grossly inferior to a Soviet unit (by the Soviets, ofc) be as well-equipped? Even moderately experienced Strelok divisions such as the 144th Infantry were just largely Mosin-Nagant based, and lacked the training, leadership, and synergy (13th Guards Rifle worked very closely with the 12th Guards Tank(ovy) Division throughout the war) of even the worst of the Guards.

Case and point: Dont make oddball connections! Polish units arent needed, theyve been suggested and disregarded 1000 times over. Its not YOU specifically, but the topic has been suggested too much; its flogging a dead horse.  8)
