It is the Soviet Airborne Forces that deserve to be in the game, and implemented correctly, with the right skins and ability. After all, it was the Soviet Airborne Forces that inspired the rest of the world to create the Airborne Forces after maneuvers in the Kiev District in 1935, before that, in other countries, they were just experimental units when the Airborne Forces were created in the USSR starting from 1930. After the Kiev Maneuvers, the Germans and French began to convene their airborne forces, and the British began to create an airborne force after the success of the German airborne forces in Belgium.

the Airborne Forces played a huge role in the Soviet military theory "Deep Operation" and remained an important part of military theory after the war. And Although Soviet operations are not popular against the backdrop of Normandy and Operation Market Garden. But over the years of the war, about 30 tactical airborne assault forces were thrown behind enemy lines, which were used to:

- the capture of airfields and the destruction of enemy aircraft (in the areas of Medyn, January 1942; Maykop, October 1942)
- strengthening the troops that fought in the encirclement, and assisting them in leaving the encirclement (Rzhev area, February 1942)
- capture of bridgeheads during the landing of amphibious assaults (Odessa region, September 1941; Kerch Peninsula, December 1943)
- violations of the control and communications of the enemy, the work of his rear (for example, Demyansk landing)
- solving special problems (for example, Maikop landing).

The largest operational airborne assault forces were used in the Vyazemsky airborne operation in 1942 (more than 10,000 paratroopers), the Demyansk operation (8,000 paratroopers), the Mtsensk Operation (more than 6,000 paratroopers) in the Dnieper airborne operation in 1943 (4 500 paratroopers). The largest unrealized operation was supposed to be near Leningrad in 1943 - "Operation Polar Star", in which about 50,000 paratroopers (5 Guards Airborne Divisions) were supposed to participate. But due to the fact that the Germans captured two senior officers who told about the operation, the Germans launched an attack and the paratroopers were defending the front line

More than 20 landings were at the final stage of the Soviet-Japanese War (about 16,000 soldiers)

I personally want to pressure Relic to remake the Soviet airborne commander, adding historical skin and authentic abilities.

Relic should be called out, but realistically CoH2 story at worst is just tasteless and badly thought out. Relic got so much hate and problems, but in reality if we compare other games\movies they do much worst in terms of lies and history revision.

As I was always saying, main problem of CoH2 story is that it focused way too much on "unusual bad cases". I mean, tecnically speaking, nothing what was shown in the CoH2 couldnt have had happen during the war. Pretty much any "questinable" event which was shown in CoH2 did happen IRL and there are even soviet documents confirming it. On the other hand, such events could have accured maybe few times during 4 years of war and including it in the story is at best stupid.

Its as if, Relic would have made US campaign where in every mission you would have to bombard civilians, loot and comit other warcrimes. It would be a bad taste, not because it didnt happen, but because its plain stupid to base your storytelling on this narrative.

Idk, I am personally offended more by games like CoD. Because they are intentionally re-writhing history and intentionlly strate up lying. CoH2 is just an example of really bad writing in my opinion, without intentions of depicting soviets like trash.

But CoH2's single player campaign is rewriting history. This last mission brings the line under the whole company. The protagonist claims that millions of people died for the sake of a photograph of the flag over the Reichstag. So either an idiot or a liar could say that, or if the USSR would attack Germany and not vice versa. The main character is an officer who fights from the beginning of the war until the end of the war, he became a military correspondent and was supposed to see burned villages, massacres of civilians, concentration camps, civilians who were driven to forced labor in Germany (remember that in forced labor in Germany killed 2,164,300 Soviet citizens). And all this happened until the end of the war. And he says shit like that.

Description in the mission in which it is said that the Red Army refused to help the Polish Army, apparently here it is worth understanding the Warsaw Uprising - a lie. The Warsaw Uprising began after a major Soviet offensive 500 kilometers deep and 500 kilometers wide, after which supply lines were thinned. And even in these conditions, Rokossovsky (an ethnic Pole) began to help the Uprising, an offensive began on Prague (a suburb of Warsaw), the Insurgents dropped more than 300 tons of supplies, artillery spotters were parachuted for more accurate artillery support.

The whole CoH2 single company is a rewriting of history and its personal political vision, and I would very much like to know whose political vision of Quinn Duffy or the former THQ is, I hope someday some Relic employee who participated in the creation of a single company will tell us this story.

How is that a sing of cowardness of soldiers?

And before that first solider says "we understand we are with you to the end" and that does not sound like a thing a coward would say.



Mission 5 text:
"The symbolic city of Stalingrad remained a key battlefield for more than five months, starting in the autumn of 1942. It was characterized by vicious close-quarters combat,infatry attrition, Luftwaffe bombing, and the perilous Volga crossing. For the Read Army, the enemy would be not only the Wehrmacth but also a new imperative from Comrade Stalin: Order 227. With the new order, Soviet troops were forbidden to retreat without a senior officer's command. Newly formed "blocking detachments" opened fire on soldiers retreating without permission.
Isakoivh detested the order but carried out his duty, fighting alongside his troops to reclaim the city named for their great leader.

"He ordered us to stand fast and save Stalingrad. So we knew that it was "do or die", We could not retreat"
Lt. General Vasily Chuikov, Red army.

Oh, how cute. But there is no such quotation in Chuikov's memoirs. But there is such a quote:

Soon I was informed of the arrival of the commander and commissar of a tank corps. I immediately invited them to the dugout, detaining everyone who was at the headquarters at that time, and asked:

- How will you, a Soviet general, being the chief of a combat area, look at if your subordinate commanders and staffs retreat to the rear without your permission? How do you assess your act from the point of view of fulfilling order No. 227 of the People's Commissar of Defense - the unauthorized transfer of the command post of the formation to the rear of the command post of the army?

I have not received an answer to my questions. Both the commander and the corps commissar burned with shame. You could see it in their eyes. I strictly warned that I regarded their act as desertion from the battlefield, and ordered them to be with the command post at an altitude of 107.5 by 4 o'clock on 13 September.

All in Chuikov's memoirs are two moments of mentioning order 227 during the Battle of Stalingrad, this and the text of the order. Another lie from Relic?

Nobody is saying Stalin was an angel or that he didn't commit crimes against humanity. That's not what's being discussed.

However, depicting the brave men and women of the Red Army as spineless cowards who are unwilling to fight for their homes and families without being forced at gunpoint and reinforcing negative stereotypes already disproved by reputable academic research is racist, just like how saying the French Army is made of defeatist surrender monkeys is also racist.

The true terror of these totalitarian mass murderer regimes that deserves criticism lies in the political purges or the famines, not the way they defended themselves against a ruthless enemy who sought to wage a racial war of annihilation.

Where is the truth about the Nazi regime in the game? One at least as evil as, if not worse than, the Soviet Union? A mere footnote in the campaign. The campaign narrative that Quinn Duffy made doesn't try to criticize totalitarian regimes, it only seeks to criticize the Russian one, and disingenuously at that.

CoH3 will be far better off without his politics involved.

EDIT: Honorable mention of 'truth':
"One Russian carries the gun, the other the ammo"

Can the CoH1 German single company be considered then as justification the myth of a clean Wehrmacht? If there is no mention of politics or war crimes, but the second part is one huge "Enemy at the Gate" propaganda?
