  1. Picking up a sniper-rifle doesn't make a trooper a sniper. However it is no problem in CM.
  2. How many private armies are like that in Russia? A few hundred years ago after the demise of the Habsburgers in Europe the English and the Dutch had something like them. The East Indies Compagnies, they were a law upon themselves could even declare war. After the governments took over and the colonial era started. Russia move to the 21st Century with yesterdays politics you lose.
  3. Follow the money as usual. To run his mercenaries money is the lubrication to keep this machine going.
  4. I completely agree with you. If I play Soviet WW2 I use their 81mm as the US use their 60mm. If the mortars are on map regardless nationality direct fire is my first option 2nd option is over the Fire Direction Centre which is very time consuming.
  5. Till June 1941 they had a friendship treaty with Nazi Germany.
  6. Prophetic words by Otto Von Bismarck. Never fight with Russians, on your every strategy they will react with unpredictable stupidity.
  7. This will go down in history as: 'The Great Patriotic Coup D'état'.
  8. You can promise people anything if you don't keep your promise. My take, he gave everybody the sh*ts.
  9. Little Off Topic. Would this work against drones? You would be invisible from the air.
  10. Somehow we can agree with the propagandists, it is said there is a first time for every thing.
  11. Putin is like a cancer patient on palliative care. He will be OK for a limited time.
  12. Prig is not running Wagner according this blog. https://twitter.com/Gerashchenko_en/status/1672653350741893121?s=20
  13. Meantime in Rostov-on-Don. Schadenfreude? злорадство (zloradstvo)
  14. I would advice to invest in popcorn manufacturers shares. To watch Wagner Forces vs Russian Regulars.
  15. Not exactly they didn't have mine-detectors in the First World War that was a Polish invention. I understand it was a night operation before the battle. Cutting the wire is only the start. By the Geneva Convention minefields need to be marked so I imagine they have wire around it. Minefields slow you much more down.
  16. If Putin thinks he gets away with it he will nuke Europe tomorrow. But the Red Square possibly becomes the Black Hole.
  17. Engineers IMHO who cleared the minefields and marked the passage.
  18. Exactly I stopped playing the game you just analyzed the reasons for me. Thank you very much for this.
  19. Like @Lethaface says it takes intensive micro but developing a drill what works is fun. Crack and Elite Infantry can do house clearing but it takes testing and experimenting to come up with a model which works. At least in SF2 against Syrian I suspect green and conscript.
  20. I shared and referenced this on Discord. A mandatory read in my opinion.
