Title: Russian Veteranship
Post by: GonTo30 on January 23, 2010, 04:00:14 AM
I though of something while playing Company of Heroes Eastern Front.
I thought that the Russian streklys should have 1 bar above there head because they have combat experience.

The Russian Guards should have 2 bars above there head because they have twice the combat experience.

 Yea, I was thinking the same too.
 Would really be appropriate.

 I'd like if vetted conscripts upgraded to Stelsky and
 Stelsky to Guards, no?

 Guards ought to vet 3 :)

 Cosmetic changes only, of course.

On the subject of vet I really hate what they did with it. Using 'you pay for your vet' as an excuse.

There's only one said unit that you can "pay for your vet" for, and it gets completely different, unlike regular vetting up . Conscripts have 8 men and 0 pop, Strelky have 7/7, Guard have 6/6, all three have different 200 munitions upgrades (which is ridiculous by the way), and all 3 have different abilities/weapons.

And then they have no other units with vet. They just took the three similar-but-not-really infantry units and used them as an excuse to BS their way out of having USSR vet.

At least the Brits have units that gain vet and confer an equivalent to vet.

Agree with you 100% - especially the part where the units aren't really similar but nevertheless are supposed to represent three levels of veterancy.
