    If you haven't included 'punishment battalians' then I strongly recomend that you include them for both sides.

    Also, large numbers of Soviet trainee pilots were drafted into the infantry and sent to Stalingrad. It could be worth having these as a unit as an indication of just how desperate the Soviets were.

    You could also include a barbarian, destroyed after attacking unit to represent 'friendly fire'

      Well, I have a Penal Batalion for the Soviets. It is dressed in a prison outfit and has a Molotov and Submachinegun. They got the suicide jobs of closing gaps with suicidal counterattacks.

      British regulation gear huh? Well, let's just say it was in style back then! Honestly, what, in that small little bit of uni could I make more Soviet looking? I chnged the helmet/head to a soviet one, but maybe a color change of the brown to greenish?

      I also have a commandpost type unit, though it functions differently. The actual commandposts to be attacked are 'cities'.

        Well, allied equipment received was often given to Snipers as they where considered to be much better than the average soldier, the soviet soldiers almost worshipped thier snipers, and every young soldier wanted to be one, so I think it isnt totaly unrealistic to give them allied uniforms, another step would be to have officers drive around in american jeeps, which where considered to be much better than the russian ones.

          Well the soviet snipers urban uniform of that period was a mostly black uniform but with jagged grey streaks at various points. and there was no actual set pattern they made each uniform slightly different to try and confuse people looking out for snipers. so there was about 1000 different types of uniform made for snipers before they realised that that was enough. also a sniper never wore the same type of uniform twice in a row.

          It is intresting to note that because of the uniform being black and grey quite a few russian snipers were shot by their countrymen/women because they thought that they were thw SS i wonder if you could represent this................................

                    No time for praying!..... FIGHT!!!

                    I am having trouble with the AI cities building things they shouldn't be able to. They are given the ability to build only 'capitalization' renamed... but they end up with temples and things which aren't available at all. Any ideas?

                    Thanks,

                      It could be that they were building the said things before you edited the techs etc. So you might just have to go into the cities and change their build to capitalization

                        Yes, i have done this. For some reason my testers are telling me that the Soviets are building temples etc, while all they are allowed to build is "Decisive Victory" which is Capitalization. I have an idea to solve the problem, but it is something I'd rather not do. So if anyone has had this experience before, how you were able to solve it would be great.

                        Thanks,

                          Welll, they are not only building improvements, they are building improvements allready built (first they build a temple and then they continue to do so, despite the fact that it allready exists) give them the ability to build the basic russian infantry and the problem will be solved.
                          The AI "re"-builds improvements only if it hasnt acces to a defence unit.

                            @DEBUG?

                            Does the @DEBUG thing work for you guys? I just wrote a crapload of events, all seemingly correct. Alas, there is a bug in there which shuts her down. I have tried adding the line in the events, but i have never seen any kind of prompt telling me how far the events go before they fail.

                            And yes, I have a solution for that stuff up there Henrik.

                              I think this is the same problem that Nemo had with Second Front. The problem can probably be solved in the same way that Henrik described, hence the German POW units in Second Front.
