Naval infantry and USMC are a must. An expansion taking place around amphibious operations on Crimea, or around Odessa would be cool and take full advantage of the new amphibious vehicle mechanics.

The Khrizantema and Shturm are purposely built to remain out of sight whilst their firing post and sight remain visible. The vehicle would be a completely different shape and armoured differently had they been envisaged to operate in a different way.
This is quite a big problem.

It uses the old Soviet Army manuals, then extrapolates them into the present. I found it useful.
 
Russian doctrine hasnt really changed tactically since the Soviet times. The tactical principles are still the same, just the quality and type of equipment to apply to them has changed ,as has the reliance upon lower level leaders to use these principles instead of being directed to do so.
 
The soviet military considered a "tactical" unit in 1989 to be a battallion, now the AFRF considers it is a company. The introduction of battalion tactical groups as building blocks for creating task forces instead of using a battallion to attack along a 500m axis indicates this more flexible approach and the new reliance upon intuitive lower level leaders and NCOs that the west has been doing for some time. However in fighting the tactical battle and at levels CMBS is concerned with, the TTPs are still the same.

I remember a mission im CMSF that had some Syrian SF ambushing a platoon of canadian dismounted infantry, or it might have been the other way around. Also another campaign that was about the US mentoring Afghan forces that had battles at maximum contained a company of troops. That was so sick. Ill be making missions, but I dont know what of yet. But I will be definately making some small unit RF Recon missions.
