Russian Campaign

[HeaDBaby]

can you please explain the last 3?

Order of the Patriotic War, Order of the Red Banner and Order of the Red Star?
The Order of the Patriotic War was a basis for the emblem of the Soviets in the Red Alert ^_^
Look in the wiki. There is a lot about this.

The Order of the Red Banner was awarded to individuals as well as whole formations, which then added the prefix "Red Banner" to their official designations.
The Order of the Red Star was an order of the Soviet Union, given to Red Army and Soviet Navy personnel for "exceptional service in the cause of the defence of the Soviet Union in both war and peace".
The Order of the Patriotic War was awarded to all soldiers in the Soviet armed forces, security troops, and to partisans for heroic deeds during the Great Patriotic War.
Now, the Order of the Patriotic War is one of symbols of the WWII, like the Iron Cross.

And finally, about my country:

The Order of Bohdan Khmelnitsky (Russian: Орден Богдана Хмельницкого, Ukrainian: Орден Богдана Хмельницького) is a Soviet/Ukrainian award, named after cossack hetman Bohdan Khmelnytsky, first established on October 10, 1943 (during World War II) by the Presidium of Supreme Soviet of the USSR and re-established by Ukrainian president Leonid Kuchma on May 3, 1995.

For The Defence Of Stalingrad Medal

[UeArtemis]

Ushakov Medal is for Naval.
I think that the Partisan Medal is the Medal "for Partisan of the Patriotic War"

This is real funny I mean they rely don't even know if there gonna make a campaign and you chaps are just throwing crap to a wall to see what's gonna stick

Das Taub, i hate to say this, as im not 100% sure, but from reading a book called "Stalingrad" by Anthony Beevor, who is a highly respected historian, and in it, it mentioned a factory in Stalingrad, which was producing T-34 tanks, and sending them straight into the defence, without gunsights and most of the usual tank features, apart from the hull, the engine and the gun. So in theory you could put the T-34 into a stalingrad mission, though in a very limited number, say just one or two. Also, i dont think many were actually used in Stalingrad, as the factories were vitually destroyed in the battle.


Also, as people have mentioned Stalingrad, i was thinking it IS neccessary in a campaign, though you cant just focus on it, or randomly shove it in.

Maybe there could be a completely separate campaign for stalingrad (and leningrade mixed in aswell, as that was another huge siege and battle)

Mission 1 (for stalingrad)
Lead Elements
- Lead elements of the German force are 5 miles away from Stalingrad. You must hold them off for atleast 30 minutes to allow for the defences to be strengthened. You will not be able to build new units or be re-inforced by reserves, as we cannot spare the man power.

Mission 2.
Outskirts
The 24th Panzer Division have reached the Outskirts. You must Hold them off, and drive them out (secondary objective) for aslong as possible. Each extra minute helps in your next mission. If you fail to hold the germans off for 30 minutes, all is lost.

Mission 3.
The Docks
The Germans have pushed us back to our dock, and our only supply of troops and munitions. YOU MUST DRIVE THEM BACK IMMEDIATELY. NOT ONE STEP BACKWARDS.

Mission 4
The Factory District
The Germans are attempting to capture the last areas of the factory district we still control. Hold out with your last remaining troops until re-inforcements arrive in 30 minutes and then drive the Facists out. Do not Fail.

Mission 5
The Grain Silo
Our valient comrades have fallen defending the Grain Silo, which is now in German hands. You must take it back at all costs, as the German officers in the tower are calling down lethal artillery on our ships in the Volga and troops in the city.

Mission 6
Trainyard
We have pushed the Germans back to the edge of the Trainyard. Now you must finish the job. Secure the whole trainyard. Eliminate All Enemies.

Mission 7
The Turning Point
You have been tasked to break through the Romanian defenders on the flank of Stalingrad. This is part of Operation Uranus, and we will encircle and destroy the Germans in Stalingrad. Note: your troops can now mount up on our T-34s comrade. Crush the Germans underfoot.

Mission 8
Final Battle
The Germans have been completely surrounded in Stalingrad. Only pockets of resistance now remain, focussed in the Centre of the City. Wipe them out. Victory is at hand comrade!

Mission 9 (Maybe)
Their Land. Their Blood.
Berlin. The final obstacle the Nazis have for us. They will use all they can to defend the city. Fight your way to the Reichstag and capture it for our glorious Motherland. The end is nigh comrade!

Mission 10 (maybe)
Inside the Reichstag
*a description for this is better really. It's a inside layer of the Reichstag, and you need to capture the building (3 strategic points) to win. Only infantry in here. would be difficult to make this map, but would be new and different from all the others. Think of the Call of Duty World as War style mission, and something similar to that*

There are also possibilities to the Leningrad Siege, though i don't know as much about the Leningrad battle.

I think Das Taub's campaign is very good. Da game needs a campaign with a close storyline like the Normandy 1 in the original Company of Heroes. I am no historian but i think that the Minsk battle is a very gud bg 4 the Russian campaign.

I agree, but he didnt need to post it 5 times 

EDIT: Sorry, meant TrueSights

'I agree, but he didnt need to post it 5 times  '

That Wasn't Me. that was TrueSights

I never said anything about the T34-76 not being included in Stalingrad, i was talking about the T34-85, and the SU85, and T70/90, none of which were in service in 1942.

Ah, then i apologize, i misread that. Yes, that would have been accurate as the T34-85 wouldn't have been at stalingrad at all.

Hey, I think If you do a Stalingrad mission it should be sniper based, because The Soviets used a heckload of Snipers in Stalingrad!

Wheres the fun in that though? You need to have conscripts to throw at the German line while the snipers take them out. Otherwise it'd just be a walk in the park, 20 snipers versus 100 germans. That'd just be a slaughter and too easy

[xxredmaxx]

I was thnking more you have 5 minutes to place 15 snipers in stragic points defend for 5 mins then get reinforcements and push the Germans out of Stalingrad
