Is this compatible with COREd WitE2 and mapmod ? I guess all those mods are rather complementary.


Yes, completely compatible with any other mod (that doesn't alter Soviet Unit insignias). It just adds image files, no settings are altered.

Adds 140 new Soviet unit insignia

v1.6 Patch notes:
- Added insignias for all Cavalry Corps and Divisions.

A golden symbol indicates corps, silver indicates division.

The double sword and horse-shoe badge and the blue color seen in the per bend background were used by the Soviet cavalry troops during the Great Patriotic War.

The yellow text on cavalry units indicated it has a higher base morale value than regular units.

The 6th and 11th Cavalry Divisions have the Order of the Red Banner, Order of Lenin and Order of the Red Star badges added to their insignia as these were awarded before the start of the Grand Campaign scenario. If you know of more units that had major awards before the start of the war, but they are missing from the insignia, feel free to let me know.

Patch notes:
- Added 71 new insignia for all NKVD units. Trying a different technique to make the text more readable, but some of these full unit names are long, and there is not much space. Should in any case be somewhat easier to read insignias in v1.7 and forward. (If you can read russian :) )

The People's Commissariat for Internal Affairs (Наро́дный комиссариа́т вну́тренних дел: Naródnyy komissariát vnútrennikh del), or NKVD for short, was the interior ministry of the Soviet Union during the Great Patriotic War (WW2). If you want to read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NKVD

The Internal Troops of the NKVD wore blue caps, Border Guard Troops green. Unit insignias have corresponding ribbon colors.

Patch notes:
- Added 404 new insignia for Railroad Engineer (NKPS Corps & RR Construction Brigades) and Engineer-Sapper brigades, regiments and battalions. Engineer-Sapper brigades have a golden badge, regiments and battalions have silver. Badges are historically accurate (as far as I know).

"The Germans considered them among the best of the Soviet fighting man –
those who often fought with such motivation and eagerness, that even when
annihilated, unlike many in the Red Army units that suffered the same fate,
they tended to take much more of the enemy with them. So much so that
Germans nicknamed them the ‘Black Death’ for their black, formal-like uniforms.
To their countrymen, they were known as the Naval Infantry of the Soviet Union."



Patch notes:
- Added 160 new insignia for Naval Infantry Brigades and Battalions.
Brigades have a golden anchor, battalions silver. To my knowledge, the anchor insignia used is accurate.

My comrade, in your final agony,
don’t bother calling to friends.
Better that your steaming blood
should warm my freezing hands.
Don’t cry and moan, you’re not a child,
you’re not wounded, you’re merely shot dead.
I’ll take your boots to remember you by –
there’s still lots of fighting ahead.

- Vasily Grossman

v1.10 Patch notes:
- 508 new insignias for Rifle Divisions.

Examples:


All (unless no info found) historical rifle divisions have been researched using russian sources.
If the divisions had any major awards at the start of the 1941 Campaign, they have been added
to the insignia upper right corner. Some also have their origin flag symbol showed in the upper
left corner, like the 201st Latvian Rifle Division for example. Some divisions were awarded the
Honorary Revolutionary Red Banner; these divisions insignias have a red star with extra ray effect,
similar style to some real Honorary Revolutionary Red Banners. In some cases liberties have been
taken adding some extra graphics to insignia (like the 249th Rifle Division formed mostly by
NKVD personnel). Some divisions full names are so long that you barely can read what it says
(or not) on the insignia (if you can read cyrillic). It's unfortunate, but I've tried to make it as
readable as possible, using the current insignia style. If you cannot read the text and want to know
the division full names you can go to the Russian Wikipedia page linked below. There you will find a
list over most Rifle Divisions in the Great Patriotic War. Each page has the full name of the division.
Use Google Translate if you need, it works well: https://tinyurl.com/kexdnpks
(Possibly in the future there will be an english version of this mod, but no promises.)

As always, if you notice something off, or just have suggestions/feedback, let me know!

Status: offline 		Right. The game hardcoded names are Pol. Rifle Division. At least the 1st and 2nd Polish IDs have what I believe is somewhat correct name on the insignia though, including the words пехотная дивизия (Infantry Division). I might correct all of them in a later patch, thanks for pointing this out.

You have very cool badges of Soviet units! Excellent and very high quality work from the point of view of the Russian! So far I have not found mistakes in Russian names.

If necessary, I can post the current result of my work. My entries in the English Witepedia have been fully translated and work has begun on the Soviet troops absent there. Basically I take information from the Russian Wikipedia, but sometimes there is no necessary information there, so I look for information on websites and forums ..
