The Germans, controlled by the AI, are attempting to capture numerous Soviet locations. The Soviets are outnumbered, but beginning shorty after this, reinforcements begin arriving over the Volga (south map). These reinforcements are random, and although they are Russian, and fight the Germans, the Russian player cannot control these Russians directly (they are from another command). Interesting scenario.

LOL, I got duplicate versions of Red Barricades running on vassal right now.

But what always bothers me with these games, is the effects of smoke is always over-exagerrated and over-used.

The artwork would look even better that way.

It could be just an overlay, like turning hex grids on/off.
