Looks cool so far, but don't you think the heavy mortar is a big too heavy? I mean it shoots arty rounds!

It is an end tier unit, expensive, inaccurate and has a long reload time between shots. So no.

Dafuq man, don't ask for proof if you'll refuse it if it's not in your favor, logic fallacy for the bloody win.

No machine gun for the soviets. We had a maxim gun hmg planned, but that would be on wheels and handle like an at-gun. But it is a bitch to animate, so not in the first release. But honestly, if you need crowd control as soviets, then you are doing something wrong.

Hmm, i'm a little worried to tell you the truth about how blobby their infantry are going to be, especially with heroic charge. I kinda relate them to how the british perform in EIRR right now, although granted they have a lot of more interesting choices.

Why u choiced to reskin american atg to zis-2?

Compare that reskined model from video to real one:



You should reskin it to zis-3 it would be more realistic.

Zis-3 would be too strong. Gotta give those german tanks some chance. ATGs ought to play only a minor role in the soviet army, getting big tanks yourself is the way to go.

No.
The video showed pretty clear that the Katyusha works the same way as a Calliope, and the Howitzer was just a reskinned 25 lber.

Do you have a crystal ball or something. Don't lend it to me, because it's a crappy one.

Katyushas only fire 16 rockets, less than half of a calliope, and health and armor is comparable to an opel blitz.
The firebase fires 10 shots per bombardment scattered over an area of about 2 screens.
The ZIS-2 can ambush, not cloak or camouflage. And threadbreaker rounds do less damage.

JFYI.

I think the heavy mortars would need a skin that makes them look bigger and heavier to drag, just like the MG that is dragged on wheels in a form of a mortar that is dragged with wheels, then it would look cool and more nicer than 60mm skinned mortar that shoots 105mm shells :p
