Guest Mike Posted November 25, 2002 Share Posted November 25, 2002 Rocket launchers aer all off-board artillery represented by observers. There are no political officers in the game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Steiner Posted November 25, 2002 Share Posted November 25, 2002 Yeah, it's just no fun at all without the commissars around to shoot anyone with powder burns on their wounds. Or to hammer empty cartridge cases into the kneecaps of German prisoners.. [ November 24, 2002, 10:23 PM: Message edited by: Sgt.

meditek Posted November 25, 2002 Author Share Posted November 25, 2002 'Commissars' were a feature of the Russian army and leaving them out is a mistake. However, if they must be left out then their presence could at least be modelled by by making it a rarity for Russian soldiers to leave their alloted positions. They seem to be modelled the same as the Axis lot. meditek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nippy Posted November 25, 2002 Share Posted November 25, 2002 'Commissars' were a feature of the Russian army and leaving them out is a mistake. They are in the game in a way. I beleive that all Company and Battalion Commanders for Soviet partisans have NKVD "Blue Cap" Uniforms. Which is historical as NKVD offices did sneak behind German lines for form Resistance groups from escaped Soviet Soldiers and Civilans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefly Posted November 25, 2002 Share Posted November 25, 2002 Commissars and NKVD troops are not the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lars Posted November 25, 2002 Share Posted November 25, 2002 I'm amazed at the number of times this comes up. Just play badly enough that there won't be anyone left to shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRSutton Posted November 26, 2002 Share Posted November 26, 2002 Seem to me that about 4 million Russians surrendered. Looks like there were at least a few who left their positions. It would be nice to see commissars in the game, but don't over rate the influence that they actually had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
