Awesome mod Now some build orders?

I've seen some replays but nothing in detail on how to start out with the soviets.  I notice some don't build the barrack building right away. Love how there are certain upgrades in specific buildings to make units more effective.  I notice that conscripts can do well in groups of 2 or more but I don't want to spam them.  Of course I don't know what unit does what quite yet. Even the special FAQ doesn't help at the moment. 


Gotta say again impressive mod. Looking forward to see what else will be done. especially if you are working on a new axis side.

Vehicle Rush
2X Ingy - CS - Barracks - Conscript X3 - Armoury - NKVD upgrade - Build NKVD as required - Tank Hall/Light tankovy - T70/T90

Strelky/Sniper combo
1X Ingy - CS - Barracks - Conscript X3 - Support Barracks - long range upgrade - Strelky - Sniper - Armoury - RB Strelky & ZiS upgrade - Strelky/AT guns as required

There's a couple to start you off.
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.

Re: Awesome mod Now some build orders?

If its on high res, this is what I do.

2xIng-CS-Barracks-Soveit Support barracks- Light surport upgrade-4x Streaky, 3xTankhunter with CS(if he died), amoury, Men vs Tank upgrade- SB Streakly, Upgrade t-34.

By this point anything happens, I might get fast tanks or stick with the rush.
The Russians think there sooo tough, wait till the Ostheer comes...

NKVD+T34=win, with either Tank Riders or "Stalins Organs" for support.  ;D :D :) :D ;D

Re: Awesome mod Now some build orders?

honestly i never get stalin organs, they suck
i always use 2 sniper teams, because it drives the wehr player crazy if they are supported by red banner strelky...

Building orders?
Build what you need.
First 2-3 ingenery squads (same as pios but have lower HP than Pios/Engies and rifles so they can kill pios while being out of range themeselves) than a Command Squad that is better than any single german infantry unit and gives you global bonuses once it gets vet.
Build barracks first, WSC if you will have 30 fuel for the first upgrade and Armory if you have at least 50 ammo and some fuel. Any WSC will unlock Strelky infantry and a AT unit, I think Medium range upgrade is better for starting players.
Than upgrade youre units in the armory as needed and go for the Tank Hull. T-34 are only good (very good) with a gun upgrade so most players choose light tank upgrade and go for T-90 SU-85 mix.

Re: Awesome mod Now some build orders?

yeah true
i played a 2vs2 both soviet players went propaganda and annoyed the hell out of me with 6 katyushas
we eventually won because my wehr ally owned them with vetted and shrecked stormtroopers!
it was a hard (and cool) match on St. Hillaire
if i find the replay i post it

Re: Awesome mod Now some build orders?

Ok, send it once you find it, I like watching replays.
Theres one strategy you can do when you use:
Wait until the units retreat back to the HQ, quickly bring up your Organs then "bring the rain" onto the HQ.....works almost everytime (if timed correctly) and the bombardment is so quick they hardly have anytime to react.
