Since your mod is going to be released relatively soon, maybe you could ask MOOXE to create your own forum thread in the Moding section, that way all of the questions and relaeases could be kept clear and up to date - I'm sure he would do it for you.
Hi, thanks for your comments, yes a forum is a good idea but not now, when will be released is better: Or I release it, or I upgrade it: the upgrade that I have in mind is a really hard work: a new stratmap at berlin or Gjs level and new maps, and various corrections (historical and not) in azp, data and screen files. I prefer that eastern front experts can play it and say me the corrections that I must do in data and graphics files (or about divisions: for example russians commanders names), about stratmap and some new maps I hope in future to obtain the aid of some maps experts that help me to upgrade it with their works. I like eastern front but I'm not an expert of it; when I have began to work on my mod stalingrad seemed dead and berlin was only a "possibility": I have created this mod for... "necessity": I wanted play germans Vs russians in CC5. I do my best for make it historical correct but the informations about this battle that I have found are not so accurated. Also I couldn't work in a more famous battles as kursk, moskow, 3rd kharkov or stalingrad because someone was working already on them.
Hi, The mod don't have new maps but cc3 custom maps. 3rd Kharkov is not mine, If I remember well is "on ice".
Actually I'm testing my mod, testing go well but I'm resolving some small problems with two maps and reinforce button. Regards, Drizzt
Hi, the mod has been uploaded but my mod files need to be converted into plugin form, Mooxe (site admin) is busy for now: don't worry, when he will have more free time the mod will be converted and released (many thanks to Mooxe for his support!). Regards, Drizzt
Are the Russian Infantry and NKVD troops supposed to be wearing light green?
I thought they would be wearing khaki uniforms.
I know that Soviet Scouts and specialists troops wore green cammo suits...but do most of the regular troops wear green also? Is this representing theTelogreika padded winter jacket?
BTW, Russians are also wearing green uniform in Stalingrad mod.
Thanks again for the mod, Drizzt! The CC3 maps look a little retro though...maybe when you have time you should upgrade the maps with repainted ones someday.
One more thing...someone should start the 3rd Battle of Kharkov mod...I want to command Waffen SS battlegroups!
to squadleader: many thanks!! About uniforms I had as examples stalingrad and berlin mods: stalingrad as timeline is near to 2nd kharkov so I have thought that the right uniforms were light green. Have you seen the color of the russian militia teams (not nkvd)? It's a brown different to romanian brown uniforms, maybe is more adapted for ther regular troops?
As I have said in past, I'm not a great expert of eastern front but I like it. There are surely many others imprecisions: my "weak point" is the great knowledge about historical war detalils that many veteran modders and CC funs have and I don't have. I admire the works of many veteran modders.
About maps, I hope to improve the mod in future.
3rd kahrkov is a great mod idea that unfortunately has not been finished (in past was in preparation), maybe one day will return.
And to be honest...I don't even know for sure if the NKVD historically wore faded green or khaki.
Great mod, BTW...I've been having a blast with the single battles. The Russian AI seems to perform very well...maybe it's the CC3 maps? I made a quick 'personal vetmod'...just making the Soviet teams all 10 men and coding infantry as vehicles...and the AI performs even better on the attack. With T-34s in support, Russian infantry are rolling over my positions...aarghhhh!!!
Thanks for clearing this up, Dima! Actually I was waiting for you to join ini
So the historical RA and NKVD uniforms were shades of green.
I'll play around with Soldier Color Editor tool to try and get the right shades of green...I still think the greens in Stalingrad look odd...a bit too bright and not pale enough. I have a fetish for the uniforms worn by our beloved tiny soldiers
So only conscripts and partisans wear khaki? What about khaki/brown greatcoats?
RKKA and NKVD field units had basically same uniform so the differences were only in color of patches and caps (shoulder straps since 1943).

no, it looks exactly how it should look after month or so of wearing in such conditions.

.
Conscripts were RA soldiers so wore standart RA field uniform.
Partisans/militia mostly wore civilian clothes or just a mix of sov/german military and civilian clothes.
didn't u check the links to uniform pics i've posted?
khaki became standart since 1943.

it was brown. IIRC since 1943 it became light grey.
