Not currently. We're discussing ways that they can in future.

 Well, parked Zis trucks that can be used to reinforce from.
 No armor or MG.

 Or the current machinegun less outposts? :)

Maybe a MG or other structure can upgrade to secure the sector or point.

I like this idea actually. Have the outpost upgrade to an OP. You can build as many as you want, but only 1 per territory can be upgraded for a nice munition cost

I´ve got the information that the release will be in a near future, so do you discuss that to release or will you make an addon? ???

How about upgrading it with a propaganda post (doctrinal?) that inspires near troops.

Also it can just be a propaganda post without any buffs.


The model would simply be a speaker tower. But of course more fluff can be added to it. Maybe a stalin portrait etc.

what about having ingenery build under ground pipes back to hq, 1 section (10m) (3 inches on screen) built every 2 seconds, and can only be detected by mine detectors to be sabotaged? but only individual sections be destroyed?

 Oh, hey, I love that. Xcept make it harder to make. But... !!!
 Would permit cut-off map sectors to stay in touch, and units
 to 'stealth' move around up and to behind the germans!!!!!
 
 AWESOME IDEA :D - A 'Nydus canal' :)
 Xcept I'd make it to a house only, personally.
 Tunnels would stay in place (sections) can be detectable via
 mine detector :)
 That's an AWESOME idea :D
