Complete Guide to the Soviet Fighting Man, His Weapons and His War
Disposable Heroes and Coffin For Seven Brothers is a miniature wargaming rules system designed to recreate platoon level infantry combat set in WWII. This system is suited for 28mm, 25mm, 20mm, and 15mm miniatures. Vehicle rules will work with 1/285th scale models. Urrahh! is a DH/C7B supplement describing in detail the major Soviet infantry platoon structures. Also included are the wide range of Soviet armor and artillery, aircraft, and soft skinned vehicles. While informative this is not a stand alone product. A copy of DH/C7B is needed for play. This product keeps with the WWII Soviet spirit (and Iron Ivan Games philosophy) by being chrome free. Why pay for fluff that does not help your tabletop gaming? Other than some brief introductions for new sections and formations, there will not be a considerable amount of narrative. Space is used to present detailed information and to lay out how to implement that information in your games. There are some images, but this product is not a photo album. There are some descriptions of Soviet troops during different eras, but no extended prose. In short, your purchase is for a book full of what you need to know. But why waste any more time? Lets get started

Gratitude is a sickness suffered by dogs. Joseph Stalin.
I. Introduction
Introduction: The Allied power most directly responsible for the defeat of Nazi Germany in WWII was the Soviet Union. She did not do this by herself. It was Britains willingness to stand alone in the ruins of 1940 that helped make Barbarossa fail, thus allowing the Soviets to survive into 1942. It was the former and current Commonwealth members (to include Canada, New Zealand, Australia, India, South Africa, Rhodesia) coming to the aid of Britain that made Britains stand possible. It was the Chinese that kept a million Japanese fighting men locked in Eastern Asia and thus out of the Soviet Union. It was the industrial might and vast numbers of fresh troops of the awakened giant of the United States that quickened the end of the war. However, it was the Soviet Union that defeated the Germans in the field. Victory accepts only one price: blood. The Soviets certainly paid for victory. A possible figure, blurred by the secretiveness of the USSR during and after WWII, is 20 million dead. 20,000,000. This was after a long series of brutal and bloody purges conducted by Joseph Stalin that had already claimed millions of lives. The total number is staggering. The seemingly limitless endurance of the Soviet people is incredible. It is just as incredible that victory happened at all. The Soviet Union displayed the cost of the officer purges in both the 1939 Winter War against Finland, and against Nazi Germany during 1941, as poorly led, planned, and coordinated war efforts were crushed. The numbers of casualties and POWs could barely be counted at the time but somehow the Nazis were stopped short of Moscow in 1941 anyway. The German officers who watched the ineptness displayed during the Winter War came away convinced that the Soviets would crumple quickly. It occurred to very few of them to consider that despite grievous losses, the Soviets did not stop. Eventually they wore the Finns down and won the war, regardless of Finnish tenacity or their own hideous casualties. German officers also mostly failed to take note that the Soviets did get better in the campaign, that they were capable of learning from error. When the major industrial sites fell within reach of Nazi attack, instead of abandoning them or starting new plants from the ground up, the core equipment was moved and relocated. A finger was pointed at a map and heavy factories sprang back up. Freed of the restrictions previously placed upon them under Stalinist rule, designers and workers displayed the adaptability and innovativeness which was to help win the war. German officers participating in the exchange of the friendly years seemed to not have noticed either the quality or the numbers of some Soviet equipment. When the Soviets openly displayed disbelief that the Mk III and IV tanks were the heaviest in the German armored arsenal, it is surprising that no Germans understood what that Soviet disbelief really represented. Joseph Stalin was a passionate anti-nationalist who had done everything in his power to destroy loyalty to any power other than himself. In the crisis that befell the USSR, he was able to revive a fierce nationalistic pride in his subject people, stirring them to the burning hatred of the Great Patriotic War. The Rodina was to be saved by the mad man who despised her. The West has rarely given the Soviets fair recognition for their sacrifice in WWII. The Soviet military of 1945 had proven itself to be a worthy ally, and a dreaded foe, a far cry from the confused and impotent efforts of 1941. Tough, brave, skilled. And in the same breath, ruthless conquerors, inflicting murder, looting and rape upon the civilian population of the territory they overran. War in the old style, war in form recognizable to the Ancient world. The excuse was, and continues to be, this was revenge for the same cruelties suffered by the Soviets. True enough. Also true, the civilians suffering under Soviet rule were just as innocent as those that had suffered under Nazi occupation. Men of all nations commit atrocities but amongst the Allies only the Soviets had atrocity as the order of the day. The touch and taint of Stalin exists in both the victory, and the culpability, of the Soviet Union. For all that, the Soviets still deserve recognition. While this work can not address (or redress) the actual events of the Great Patriotic War, it can allow you as a player to acknowledge in a small way the Soviet contribution to WWII. You will hopefully find an excuse to research for yourself their important and dramatic history, and learn an improved respect for the resolute Soviet fighting man. Urrahh!
II. Timeline
Timeline: Though some players can probably extensively detail every engagement fought by the Soviets, it is also probable that some of you reading this may appreciate a brief overview of the fighting during this conflict. The following is a brief description of when and where Soviet troops or equipment fought. 1936-1939: Spanish Civil War The Soviet Union backs the Republicans. The latest in Soviet equipment is sent, not just for support, but also to test new weapons and tactics. 1938-1939: Manchuria The Soviet Union and Japan fight a strange and sporadic conflict. On again, off again, this culminates with the Gholkin-Gol fighting in which the Japanese suffer what amounts to a substantial defeat. 1939: Poland By agreement, the Soviets invade Poland simultaneously with the Germans. Eastern Poland is occupied. 1939-1940: The Winter War Stalins attempts to bully Finland result in a war. Harsh conditions and Finnish resistance inflict serious losses on the Soviets. Ultimately the Finns are forced to agree to Soviet terms. 1941: Barbarossa Germany invades the Soviet Union. The Soviets suffer enormous casualties. The Germans fail in their drive to Moscow. Major fighting occurs in or near Odessa, Kiev, Smolensk, and Kharkov. 1942: Stalingrad Though far from the only major fighting in 1942, it is the attack on Stalingrad that has the largest impact on future events. The Germans fail to take the city quickly, and it becomes the focal point of both Stalins and Hitlers attention. Failing to listen to the reconnaissance reports of both their own staffs and the staffs of their Axis allies, the Germans are taken by surprise by a savage Soviet offensive. This will result in the surrender of the German 6th army in early 1943. Look for fighting at Sevastopol, and fighting along the front building up to Operation Jupiter. 1943: Kursk Once again, far from the only major fighting, the Kursk campaign is important as this sees a vast quantity of German equipment and men smashed on Soviet defenses. German defeat here sets the stage for future, victorious, Soviet offensives. Fighting occurs along the Donetz and in cities already fought for. 1944: Operation Bagration The Soviets begin major offensive movements out of the Soviet Union westward. They push the Germans back and by the close of the year the end can be seen. Fighting occurs outside of the Soviet Union, as far as Budapest and Warsaw 1945: Berlin As part of the Yalta agreement the other Allies do not attempt to take Berlin. Many American and British officers want to do just that, but their political leaders are unwilling to accept the estimated losses for a symbolic gesture. Stalin has no such qualms. There are perhaps a million total Soviet casualties in this fighting, but Hitler commits suicide, Berlin is taken, and the Soviets unleash horror upon the civilians of Germany. Germany surrenders. 1945: The East Stalin enters the war against Japan, when Japan has already been defeated. Nevertheless, this does allow the occupation of more Asian territory as Soviet forces effortlessly brush aside Japanese defenses. Japan surrenders.
One death is a tragedy. A million deaths is a statistic. Joseph Stalin.
III. Soviet Infantry Platoons and support

Soviet Infantry Platoons and Support: The following pages lay out the organization of several Soviet Platoon formations. It is important to understand that in any nation it is impossible to keep all formations at paper strength. For the Soviet Union this was especially so. The casualties accumulated so rapidly that the Soviet staff felt changing the organization of units was easier than trying to replace the losses. What followed was a chaotic process of changes, revisions, armament configurations, and personnel movements. Men died too quickly to get used to any one structure, but the general theme was to strip down the battalions to a bare minimum of men, keeping fighting strength up at the expense of logistics
and administration. With that in mind, options have been presented to allow some flexibility. Ultimately any formation that you and your opponent agree upon as valid can be utilized. Support options are divided into three distinct groups. There are Company Support, which are units to be found at the Platoon or Company level, and are therefore likely to be expected acting directly with the infantry platoon. There are Regimental Support, which are units to be found at the Battalion or Regiment level, and are therefore possible but less likely. Finally there are Outside Support which are units from separate formations that are unlikely to be found acting directly with the platoon. A Soviet example of a Company Support would be a Maxim HMG Team. An example of a Regimental Support would be a 45mm ATG Team. An example of an Outside Support would be a 152mm Field Gun. Outside Support is generally Scenario Specific, meaning something used by agreement for a particular battle. There is of course nothing wrong with establishing a come as you are type of battle, as long as everyone agrees. That is not completely a-historical either, as mixed grab bags of units thrown together were certainly a common enough sight for every army in WWII. Rank Names: For ease of play (and pronunciation) all ranks are given in the English (that is, the American) equivalent. For those of you who prefer more realism, the proper selected ranks are presented below, as an option to add flavor to your games. English Rank Colonel Major Captain Lieutenant Sergeant Major Staff Sergeant Sergeant Corporal Private Political Officer Soviet Rank Polkovnik Major Kapitan Leitenant Starshina Starshy Serzhant Serzhant Efreitor Krasnoarmyet Commissar

Special Note: Dog Mines are a particularly Soviet style innovation, and it is doubtful if the project ever proved very reliable. Dog Mines must be represented as models. They can become casualties as other members of the unit. If a Dog Mine becomes a casualty, roll an AP Blast 1 against the remainder of the squad. To Fire a Dog Mine, one model is released from the unit in a straight line towards an enemy unit. The Dog travels d10 in this first move. If it makes contact with a vehicle or artillery piece, it is considered an automatic hit vs the Tracks/Tires, or Blast vs the Artillery crew. If it does not reach a target the Dog will travel 9 at the end of each following turn towards the nearest Vehicle or Artillery piece, friend or foe, active or destroyed. While traveling the Dog may be shot as normal. The Dog is never considered a Man Alone. If all humans in the unit are killed, the Dogs will begin to travel as described above until either shot or exploded. Note: As with other Engineer or explosive equipped units, only one of the countable Firing models may Fire an explosive each turn. For example, in a section of 6 models, 3 may Fire. One may Fire an explosive, the other two may Fire their personal weapons as normal, and they may Fire at a different target. Any unit equipped with Explosives is considered to have enough to last the entire battle, with the exception of Dog Mines which may not start the battle with more than 1 Dog per 2 humans in the unit. Every Dog Mine must be represented with a model. Preferably a model of a dog.
Early War: Soviet Rifle Platoon
Guts Scale 8
Early War Soviets: These represent troops found fighting from 1936 through 1942. This platoon list may also represent conscript units called up at any later point in the war. Overall, the individual Soviet soldiers are tough and resilient. The problem is that they have little or no leadership. Post revolutionary fervor established fraternal equality amongst the ranks. This helped to dismantle NCO leadership, and eliminate experienced men. Stalins officer purges affected all levels of command. Qualified men were executed or imprisoned and replaced with politically reliable, but inept officers. This list reflects poor overall command and extremely limited NCO ability (Sergeants and Corporals have the same Guts). Also, lack of radios limits artillery effectiveness. Note that this list is slightly outside of the standard points system, but should be considered balanced for play. Platoon Organization: Below is shown the number and type of units that may be purchased to build your platoon. 1 Command Team 3-4 Rifle Squads 0-3 ATR Teams (1942 on, see End Notes) 0-1 Light Mortar Team 0-2 Company Support Teams 0-3 Total Vehicles and Regimental Support Teams Command Team: # Type 1 Lieutenant 1 Staff Sergeant 1 Runner Add models: 1 Political Officer

Note: Early War Soviet vehicle crews were generally of very poor quality. It may be acceptable to create scenarios using one or more negative Crew Options such as Unter Commander, Unter Gunner, Unter Driver, or Unter Radio Operator. Applying the same penalty for all crews would be advisable. This will not be reflected in the Points of the vehicles, so make sure to keep an eye for balance when doing this. This does not have to be done.

Tankovye Desants are Tank Riders. They are the only organization of any nation allowed to ride Tanks into battle. Historically, these troops took hideous casualties, even by Soviet standards. Platoon Organization: Below is shown the number and type of units that may be purchased to build your platoon. Note that Transports may be purchased for each Squad. Relying on their Tanks to provide support, other options are limited for Desants. Note, the squads should be riding the same type of tank. 1 Command Squad 2-4 Squads 0-2 Regimental Support 0-?

Late War: Soviet Guards Platoon
Guts Scale 10
Late War Soviets: These represent troops found fighting from 1943 through 1945. The NCO and Officer core of the structure is quite good. These Soviets are very motivated and experienced. Guards may follow Rifle, Motor Rifle, Desant or Close Combat/SMG Platoon structures. Simplification: Rather than repeat every possible listing, use the lists above to create the Guards Platoon.

Iv. Soviet Artillery

Soviet Artillery: As in all other nations, artillery is divided into Mortars, Anti Aircraft, Anti Tank, Field Guns, and Infantry Guns. Mortars are generally listed directly with infantry platoons. Some weapons are considered Dual-Class for rules purposes, though it is mostly true that any gun will get used every way if possible. For clarification, brief descriptions follow some of the Artillery entries. The Artillery Class chart is being repeated here for your use. The Class title is given for each weapon, such as a 45mmL66 being called a Light Anti Tank weapon. Artillery that is considered to be Regimental or Company support has been identified above. Other Artillery is considered Outside Support for the infantry platoons listed above.

Rockets: The Soviets used a variety of Rocket systems, usually collectively titled Katyusha. Rocket attacks are fast, and numerous, but somewhat inaccurate. To simulate this, Rockets fire off all of their shots in single salvoes, which have an ACC of 1 regardless of spotting. Also, no more than a quarter of the salvo may be directed against a single target. If there are no other eligible targets, then these shots are wasted. You may space the barrels to work the Rocket fire onto more distant targets. All other rules apply as normal. Rocket systems, mounted principally on Soviet and Lend-Lease trucks, and sometimes light tank chassis, are summarized below. They would be best used as Off-Board Batteries and are not given points values. Naval Gunfire: The Soviets did have ships carrying larger sized Artillery. Some of these are summarized below, and may be used in certain scenarios as Off Board Batteries.

Early and Late Ammunition Options: For Artillery, the Early ammunition can be used in any year. Late ammunition becomes available for some Artillery at the end of 1942, in 1943, or in 1944. This is slightly subjective, so use your own discretion when deciding which type suits your game.

v. Soviet Vehicles
Soviet Vehicles: The ability of the Soviet Union to produce large quantities of vehicles was a critical factor in her success over Nazi Germany. The T-34 series is the best recognized. The Soviets used many foreign vehicles, including tanks and trucks as part of Lend-Lease. Trucks especially, numbering in the hundreds of thousands, seldom receive the attention they deserve. Essentially any truck found in the USA, UK, or Canada probably could be found in the Soviet Union by wars end. The various vehicle types have been grouped according to their type, keeping the family variants together where possible, and in something of a sequential order. For the benefit of players, a rough guide has also been presented to establish when a particular vehicle was initially available, and also a rough idea of how many were produced. A vehicle will either be Early or Late for a particular year, and then listed as Rare, Uncommon, Common, or Abundant. Early means the vehicle became available sometime between Jan-June of that year. Late means the vehicle became available July-Dec of that year. Rare means probably 100 or less total vehicles were produced, Uncommon means 100-1000, Common 1000-5000, and Abundant is anything produced in numbers over 5000. There is no guide as to how to incorporate this information into your games. You may ignore it if you wish, or you may utilize it to help establish historically accurate scenarios. It is somewhat vague as there are many discrepancies from one source to the next, but should be of some assistance. Also provided for assistance is the following list of Soviet Main Guns and their penetrations. The AT values found from 6 through 8 generally represent a good solid hit (accepted penetration). Values at 9 or 10 are better quality hits (above accepted penetration), and of course those 5 or less are hits at bad angles or partial deflections (below accepted penetration). See the End Notes for more information.

Early and Late Ammunition Options: For Main Guns, the Early ammunition can be used in any year. Late ammunition becomes available for some Main Guns at the end of 1942, in 1943, or in 1944. This is slightly subjective, so use your own discretion when deciding which type suits your game. Some later (available only in 1944 or 1945) vehicles are only given the Late ammo option.

Horse Limber: Though not a true Soft Skinned vehicle, Horse Limbers were used in large numbers by the Soviets. Any penetrating hit by a Main Gun round automatically destroys the limber, but will not automatically kill the crew. Roll for AP without the confined space explosion (there is not one). Small Arms fire must be direct, crew and horses count as if in Soft Cover. Figure Horses equal Assigned Crew Size plus 2. Figure minimum number of horses is starting number. Artillery may limber/unlimber only if both Gun and Limber do nothing else, ie they can not Move or Fire. Limbers have only one Speed,12. They may not cross linear obstacles of any kind or bodies of water. However, Horse Limbers are unaffected by Adverse Weather, so are not impeded for game purposes by mud or snow. A Horse Limber is only available to Artillery, and costs +10 points. Note: Blasts affect Crew and Horses, but Direct Small Arms Fire is at the Crew or the Horses, not both. You can not distribute crew casualties to the horses or vice versa.

VI. Aircraft: Common Aircraft Data Cards

Common Aircraft Data Cards: This category is titled Common Aircraft. For large nations like the Soviet Union there are likely to be many different possible aircraft variants and designs. Whereas an engine modification in a tank may have a negligible change in overall performance, almost any modification to a plane will make it perform differently. It would be difficult to list more than a fraction of all the possible Soviet aircraft types and variants. What I have seen are about 200 possible configurations, and I am hardly an expert. Undoubtedly there are a great deal more. What is shown here is a representation of aircraft most likely to be found (and known). As DH/C7B is not an air superiority game system, these will most likely meet the needs of players. The Bomb Class chart is repeated here for clarification. Aircraft are listed primarily as Interceptors, Ground Attack, High Altitude Bomber, and Transport. Some, like the Il-Stormovik, may be able to perform in more than one role. Remember, for DH/C7B, each air asset can not be purchased via points (aircraft do not generally support platoons). They can only be used according to scenario or agreement. They must also be assigned only one role for the battle, even if the aircraft is capable of performing more than one.

VII. simple Scenarios

Scenario #1: CarWarsk! The summer sky is clear and bright, the birds are singing, the leaves are rustling what a day for daisy picking, cow milking, and reconnaissance in force! Out on their Sunday drive, lead elements of your tank brigade run into opponents in kind. This is not a specific historical action, though it does represent a realistic situation. Supported recon units meet and engage. For players less familiar with vehicle rules, this is a good game to run. An all vehicle event on a long open board should encourage movement.
Forces: Soviet 1st Turn: 2nd Turn:
2x BA10 (early 45mm) 1x BT-7a 3x BT-7 (early 45mm)
German 1st Turn: 2nd Turn:
1x Pz II C 2x SdKfz 222 2x Pz II C 2x Pz III G (3.7cm)
Rules: Set up a 4x6 table with limited terrain. A pair of hills, some woods, maybe some fields. A road running length wise is appropriate. Players will begin with all vehicles off board, and will be fighting length wise. Whoever loses initiative the first turn brings on one vehicle from their edge (short end), any speed, all actions possible as normal (ie a vehicle arriving at Slow speed could still Fire its Main Gun). Alternate until all 1st turn vehicles are on the board. On the 2nd Turn, the 2nd Turn vehicles must be brought on, but you may Activate your on board and off board units in whatever order you like, continuing to alternate between players as normal. Game lasts 7 turns. Whichever side Controls 2 or more Victory Locations at the end of the game is the winner. If neither does, the game is a draw. Until the release of the DH/C7B German supplement, the German vehicles used here will be available for free on the Iron Ivan Yahoo Group site. This simple scenario format can be used with a variety of nations and vehicles, even increasing forces, but the focus should remain on light vehicles and recon units. This should be a relatively even battle.
43
Scenario #2: Checkerboard: The Soviets displayed deficiencies in the early war. But they were also to demonstrate their ability to adapt. One area they were to prove themselves proficient in time and again was in Anti Tank defenses. Using simple (but effective) methods, including pre-constructed pillboxes and obstacles, they channeled German armor into locations into which the Soviets would pour murderous Fire. They skillfully combined hard hitting ATGs with fast firing ATRs. Throw in a little Maxim HMG covering Fire to keep pesky Panzer Grenadiers away and you have yourself a Checkerboard defense.
Forces: Soviet Command Section 2x Rifle Squads 2x 45mmL66 ATG (early 45) 3x Maxim HMG Teams 6x PTRD ATR Teams
German Command Section in SdKfz 251/10 2x PzGr Squads in SdKfz 251/1 2x Pz II C 2x Pz III G (3.7cm)
Rules: The Soviets are arranged along three sides of the table, facing the Germans who deploy in the middle of the fourth side (1 each side of the road and 2 in) receive three medium cover entrenchments spread on the three sides. Each can protect a single team or section. The building should be considered a medium structure. Spread the Soviet units in a pattern like above (but not exactly as shown, it is simply demonstrative). The Germans arrange themselves however they desire within their zone, and may start with infantry loaded or unloaded. The Soviets get choice of Initiative on the first turn automatically. On following turns roll as normal. This scenario may use either Early or Late War Soviet stats, but this should be considered a fight in early 1942. The Germans should be equipped with MG34s, not MG42s. The game lasts 6 turns. Whoever controls the Victory Location at the end of the Game wins. Note that it is intentional that the Germans are forced through a relatively open area, and that the Soviets are taking cover in an open box shape. If the Soviets can effectively neutralize the German vehicles, they should be able to win. If the Germans are able to destroy the ATGs with their tanks and suppress the ATRs with their infantry, they should be able to win. This scenario can be used with other force lists. The German tanks listed here can be found on the Iron Ivan Yahoo Group site until release of the German supplement.
44
Scenario #3: To Be Or Not To Be: City fights are ugly, brutal affairs. The built up areas, dense cover, and unexpected zones of fire create a situation in which most of the advantages of a better armed or trained platoon are nullified. Quick reflexes and spatial awareness count for more than any weapon. It becomes a deathtrap for man and machine. You will find it impossible to unhinge defenders without direct armor support you will find it impossible to keep your armor alive inside of a city impossible. No where did this description prove itself truer than in the fight for the capital of Nazi Germany: Berlin. The Soviets pushed through hellish German fire, combating the last remnants of once elite units mixed with old men and Panzer Faust wielding children. The question of survival of the Thousand Year Reich had already been answered, but there remained the personal question for every soldier still alive in this Armageddon to be or not to be?
Forces: Soviet 1x Motor Rifle Command Section 3x Motor Rifle Squads (include PPsHs) 2x SG43 HMG Teams 2x T34/85
German 1x Command Section 2x Grenadier Squads (MG42, 1 PzF each squad) 1x MG42 HMG with Tripwire 1x Immobilized Pz IV H/J with Tripwire
Rules: The terrain does not have to match the example shown above, but it should reflect a heavily damaged city. Most of the ruined buildings should be considered medium cover, but there should also be piles of rubble counting as either light or medium cover. There should be a large (two tank wide) road, and several smaller (one tank wide) roads. You may partially block the smaller roads with rubble, but the vehicles may cross rubble piles as if they were Light Wrecks. The Germans deploy up to 24 onto the board except the immobilized Pz IV and HMG42. Secretly record their locations and also record their Tripwires (see Iron Ivan Yahoo Group for this optional rule). The Soviets then deploy up to 12 onto the board. The German player now shows and places his Pz IV and HMG42. The Pz IV must be placed at the board edge on a road, not inside of a building. Roll for Initiative as normal. The game lasts 6 turns. Whoever controls 2 or more Victory Locations at the end wins the game. Note, the Pz IV does not have a penetrating hit against it. Though immobilized, the turret can still traverse. The German forces listed above can be found in the DH/C7B main rule book. After the release of the German supplement, try this scenario using Volk Sturm or Hitler Youth instead of late war Grenadiers. This should be a difficult scenario for the Soviets as they do not have a very large superiority in numbers. If the T34/85s can be brought to bear as support they will likely win.

VIII. Optional Rules

Optional Rules: These are presented to help provide either more historical accuracy or Soviet flavor or both. They are not presented as normal rules because they tend to interrupt play or add complication to what is a smooth fast flowing WWII system. All of us as players want to be able to add the details we like, so here are some that you should take a look at. Remember to consult your gaming group, and pick and choose the options you want for you games after all, it is your table. Late War Bazooka: The Soviets did receive some Lend Lease Bazookas. This should be allowed. Bazooka Team: # Type 1 Corporal 1 Private Upgrade Private to PPsH
ACC 5 5
CC 6 6
GUTS Equipment 7 Bazooka, Tokarev 6 Mosin Nagant
Points: 34
+5 points
The Vodka Rule, aka Liquid Courage: It is absolutely no myth that Soviet troops sometimes entered combat completely drunk. They were not the only ones, but it did occur frequently. This added a degree of bravery to their efforts, but also caused impairment to some of their actions. To simulate the extensive use of Vodka, your entire platoon (including all support, except vehicle crews, off board artillery, and aircraft) may enter the game drunk. This should occur in games where the Soviets are assaulting, or are in a meeting engagement. It is less likely to be employed in defense. This must be decided prior to play (and I would suggest informing your opponent of this beforehand). Drunken sections and teams have their Guts rating raised by +2 (this would for example take a Guards officer to 12). Bear in mind a 10 still will always fail, and modifiers are still applied. The bad news is that all ACC scores are dropped by 1. If because of this drunk units need less than a 1 to score a hit, use the rules for reinforced cover. Snap Fire from drunken units will always have an ACC of 1, never 2. Close Combat is not affected. Drunken engineer units may not clear mines or create paths. Drunken AA crews may not engage enemy aircraft.
Linked Arms, aka Urrahh!!!: In the Early War especially, it was not unknown for Soviet troops to link arms and charge at the Germans in a massed formation. This was ultimately futile, but was done to keep poorly motivated troops going forward. If you choose to use this rule, create relatively open table tops with the Soviets assaulting, not defending or in a meeting engagement. All Soviet squads (all sections) are formed into a mass or line, bases of models touching. Company and Regimental Support Teams do not have to be included. Command does have to be included. The mass or line of infantry activates as one unit, and can perform only one action while in a Linked Arms formation: Run. They may only Run 9 forward. While in this formation they gain no benefit from any cover (but weather and smoke would still apply) but count as having their Guts score +2. They may not move through woods or buildings. They may cross linear obstacles. Individual units are still selected as targets, and make Guts tests independently. Any unit that becomes Pinned falls out and may not return to the formation (though may still Rally and operate as normal). At any Activation, a single unit may be selected to fall out of the formation and may begin to act normally, starting that turn. Note that the entire mass may not Charge together, a unit would make a Guts check (with the +2 modifier if beginning in Linked Arms formation) then exit the formation by itself (it may of course drag in a unit for support as normal).
Limited Smoke: Depending on source the Soviets either did not issue smoke, or issued small quantities. You may decide to not allow your Soviets to use any smoke. Or you may apply a -2 modifier to Create Smoke rolls for all your units, cumulative with other modifiers, to simulate limited smoke rounds. Of course you may allow your Soviets to employ smoke as normal
46
In the Soviet army, it takes more courage to retreat than to advance. Joseph Stalin. Commissars and Blocking MGs: This seems to be everyones favorite Soviet flavor. Your Political Officers are Commissars. The Commissar may remain with the Command Section, or attach himself to any other unit in the platoon structure. Any time the unit a Commissar is associated with fails a Guts test the Commissar executes the highest ranking member of the unit, and the Guts check is considered automatically passed. As this tends to get over used, you may limit this to the first failed Guts test only. Blocking MGs can either be Regimental Support MGs under the direct command of your Commissar, or the MGs under the command of NKVD troops. When Activated, they may take action as normal, or they may attempt to inspire flagging morale. They may choose to Fire at any Pinned friendly unit that is in LOS to and range. They must Fire as normal, inflicting hits and casualties as normal. Whether they produce casualties or not, the unit Fired at must make a Guts test with normal modifiers. If the unit passes this test, remove all Pinned counters from them. If they fail the test, there is no change in status. By extension, you may even allow NKVD squads to apply this rule. Once again, keep an eye for balance, if overdone or misused this rule could become problematic. Keep in mind that these actions are historically accurate. Also keep in mind that they did not work consistently, and in reality sometimes killed many good Soviet soldiers for apparently no gain.
Cavalry Troop: The Soviets employed many cavalry formations. See below for an explanation of why they are listed here under Optional Rules. Though certainly vulnerable in open combat, there continued to be situations in which horse mounted infantry could be useful. They will typically be equipped only with rifles, possible sabers, and hand grenades, and would not even be equipped with DP LMGs. Many would be equipped with the M1938 Carbine instead of the full sized Mosin Nagant. A full Troop would be a single command section and 2-4 squads. They may be irregular, Guts Scale 8 (or even 7!), or regular, Guts Scale 9. The list below displays regular cavalry, Guts Scale 9. Cavalry Command Section: # Type ACC CC 1 Lieutenant 5 6 1 Staff Sergeant 5 6 1 Messenger 5 6 Upgrade any model to M1938 Rifle Upgrade any model to PPsH SMG
GUTS 9 8 5
Equipment Pistol, Saber Pistol, Saber Pistol, Saber
Points: 14
+5 points each +10 points each
Cavalry Squad: 1st Section: # Type 1 Sergeant 5 Privates
ACC 5 5
CC 6 6
GUTS Equipment 7 M1938, Saber 5 M1938, Saber
Points: 108
2nd Section: # Type ACC CC 1 Cpl 5 6 5 Privates 5 6 Upgrade any Sgt/Cpl to PPsH SMG
GUTS Equipment 6 M1938, Saber 5 M1938, Saber +5 points each
The points shown reflect the value of these units whether they begin the game mounted or dismounted. They can be deployed either way at the beginning of the game. Note that the Cavalry Regiments would have HMG platoons, which could only fight dismounted. Use the Late War Motor Rifle HMG teams to represent these. You may allow the use of the same Regimental Support Artillery options, purchasing Trucks as transports for them. If it is model appropriate, you may even allow cavalry to have more SMGs assigned, at a cost lf +5 points each. The following is a short explanation of how to use cavalry.
47
Note: Modified Cavalry rules may be available at a later time. These types of platoons have not seen as much play testing as they need. Cavalry should always be allowed for Soviet use, do not consider the Cavalry itself to be Optional, but make sure to find any Cavalry rules updates in the future. Here is a synopsis for running Mounted Cavalry in your games: Movement: 10 Maneuver, 20 Run. Cavalry may not Sneak. Unless stationary, they fire ROF, Range. This speed is generous in a 25mm game, but in 15mm, reduce it as for infantry (ie, do NOT keep speed in inches like for vehicles). May not enter Buildings, Bunkers, or Ruins while mounted. Close Combat: CC is +2 if Mounted Cavalry initiate the melee. Also, Guts check for Charging is at +2 always. Mounted Cavalry may not Charge an enemy in Buildings, Bunkers, or Ruins. Cover: Whether in the Open, Concealment, or in Soft Cover, -1 ACC to Fire at. Mount offers some protection, but is overall easier to see and target. In Medium Cover (including behind a Hedge or Wall) -2 ACC. Weather, Smoke, Night modifiers as normal. Linear Obstacle modifiers as normal. Support Guns do NOT get their Support gun bonus against Mounted Cavalry. Dismounting: This takes full Activation, one Private from each of the 2 sections becomes a handler, and then the rest of the models may function as standard infantry for the rest of the game.
Women, Children, and Old Men: This is a completely politically incorrect optional rule. Be warned. The enormous drains on Soviet manpower prompted them to begin using women to fill military roles wherever possible. Many positions, including some combat roles such as Snipers and Tank Crew, were ones in which women could and did perform well. However, women do tend to be smaller and physically weaker than men. On the table below an adjusted womens chart for stats is shown. Many children were also called up, or part of Partisan groups. More so than women, the very young also have their limitations. The elderly fought for the Rodina too. They are shown below, along with the infirm (walking wounded). Optional Troop Types: Type ACC CC Woman 5 5 Child 4 3 Elderly 4 4 Infirm 4 5
GUTS Same -1 -1 -1
Equipment Same No Heavy Class or above artillery crew Same Same
You may decide to incorporate these stat lines for some scenarios, or associated with particular models. You may of course to continue to use the normal statistics across the board for all models.
Sniper Squads: The Soviets unlike other nations would be willing to employ Snipers in force. This would include multiple Sniper Teams, and even Sniper Squads. These Sniper Squads in reality would essentially operate like Recon Teams. By agreement, you can create this type of force simply by using the listings for Snipers and Recon Teams. As a further ability, you may choose to allow each Recon Team to purchase Engineer Explosives for +25 points each Team, except that they can not take Dog Mines. Soviet Snipers were frequently not trained in marksmanship and camouflage alone, but also in stealth, demolitions and commando style tactics. Top it off with a Command Team.
48
IX: End Notes

Soviet Communications: This is a primary source of failure for Soviet forces, the inability to effectively communicate. The following is just a suggestion. To represent the poor quality of Soviet communications, you will notice that there are no Forward Observation Teams, and the Recon units are not given a Radio option. This means that Soviet artillery will never have an ACC of 4, and can only have an ACC of 3 if the unit itself has a LOS to the target, or a radio equipped command unit does. Soviet artillery should not be allowed to spot for each other. Soviet ATR Teams: Astute gamers will notice that Soviet PTRD/S ATRs have a slightly higher AT value than expected. These crews were trained to aim for view ports, weak spots, and drive mechanisms. Combine this with very accurate rifles, and you have the most lethal ATRs in the game. Rather than create special rules for PTRD/S ability, I have simply given them a boost to their AT scores. That is why the KPVT has less armor penetration, even though it is also a 14.5mm weapon. Note that while the PTRD came into existence in late 1941 (Nov or Dec), it is not until 1942 that it begins to be seen in large numbers. These weapons continued to be employed in large numbers for the rest of the war. The PTRS is a semi-automatic version, one that does not work any different for game purposes. Other Small Arms: The Soviets used primarily two pistols, the M1895 Nagant revolver and the newer TT-33 Tokarev semi-automatic pistol. Both have the same stats for game purposes. The Soviets began to field the PPD SMG early and that evolved into the PPsH-41 (the one most people think of) which in turn became the lighter slimmer PPsH-43. All function the same for game purposes, and in truth are solid, reliable weapons. The Mosin Nagant, in its M1891 and M1930 main variants, as well as its M1907, M1938 and M1944 Carbine variants, is a strong rifle, delivering a powerful strike accurately. The Tokarev SVT and Simonov semi-automatic rifles were poor designs. They did not perform well, and so are treated the same as bolt action rifles. You may alternatively attempt to use them as semi-autos for your games (use M-1 Garand stats and rules). The DP LMG is generally reliable if a bit heavy for its capability, and its limited magazine capacity (as opposed to a belt fed weapon). The Maxim HMG worked in WWI and still worked in WWII including its newer forms in other nations. The Soviets mounted theirs on a cumbersome wheeled carriage. Also, theirs were old and had been heavily used, which is why their ROF is 4 and not 5. Better replacements were to arrive in the forms of the SG43, and also the true HMG DsHK and KPVT. Rifle grenades have not been listed in the platoon lists though stats have been provided for them. They would cost +0 points (for a rifle equipped model) for HE only, no more than one per squad. The problem is that though they seemed to have them, I have never seen a photo of one in use, never seen a miniature made carrying one, and really am not sure of their employment. Notes on Armor and AT Ability: I talk about this at the beginning of the Coffin for Seven Brothers section of the main rulebook. There are endless sources, and very few of them agree totally. Also, I have seen in some game translations that all armor tends to be treated the same, and that all penetration is treated the same. This is simply not true, and for the systems out there also trying to display the essential randomness of hits and penetration, I commend you. It is not easy. Quality of steel, face hardened, bolted, welded, cast, thickness, vertical deflection, horizontal deflection AT round is too fast, too slow, too fragile, penetrates too quickly, varies from gun to gun and from batch to batch. For the Soviets specifically, their criteria for testing penetration was different than that of the West, meaning that their gun and round combinations performed better than the data might predict. This of course is balanced (washed) by the fact that their normal production ammo was poor, so performed closer to what the data suggested. The vehicles previously shown in DH/C7B continue to be valid until a newer version becomes available. There should not be substantial changes in newer versions (in German and American supplements), but there are likely to be some minor ones. The Soviet guns and vehicles listed in Urrahh! reflect the most up to date method of calculating vehicle and gun data for DH/C7B. This method will be the method that is used for all other supplements (that is not to say there wont be cosmetic changes with font size and the like). As already stated, the vehicles already out there remain completely valid and compatible unless an updated version becomes available. The bottom line is that the data do represent real information, and any changes made have been made only to make the vehicles as accurate as possible within the rules.

Motor Rifle Battalion Formation: This is a simple (no points, approx number of men) break down of a Soviet Motor Rifle Battalion (Late War or transitional period): Battalion HQ, @ 20 men Logistics Unit, @ 50 men Medical Team, @ 5 men Battalion Mortar Company Mrt Co HQ, @ 5 men 6x 82mm Mortars ATR Company ATR Co HQ, @ 5 men 18x PTRD/S ATG Battery ATG Battery HQ, @ 5 men 4x 45mm ATG SMG Company (or 2 or 3 SMG Companies) SMG Co HQ, @ 5 men 3x SMG Platoons 2x Rifle Companies (or 1 or 0 Rifle Companies) Rifle Co HQ, @ 5 men each HMG Platoon MG Platoon HQ, @ 5 men each 2x HMG each 3x Rifle Platoons Total number of men is from 400-600, depending on date and organization type. Medium or Light Tank Battalion: This is a simple (no points) break down of a Medium or Light Tank Battalion: Battalion HQ, 1 Tank 3x Tank Companies Company HQ, 1 Tank 3x Tank Platoons 3x Tanks Total of 31 Medium or Light tanks. The Soviets used mixed formation at some times during the war, but tried to make the battalions homogenous when possible (ideal for logistics, movement, training, etc.). Heavy Tank Company: This is a simple (no points) break down of a Heavy Tank Company: Company HQ, 1 Heavy Tank 2x Heavy Tank Platoons 2x Heavy Tanks Total of 5 Heavy Tanks. JS-IIs were generally only committed by full Regiments, but your battle may only represent a slice of a bigger fight, in which case 5 JS-IIs would be completely appropriate. Also, the Heavy Tank company can be applied to T-35s, sometimes T-28s, and sometimes KV series vehicles. I am unsure if KV series tanks can be deployed in the same way as Medium Tank companies, or can only be fielded as Heavy Tank companies. 1946, or, Patton Was Right: There always existed the possibility of open fighting between the West and the Soviets, and some leaders on both sides (Patton included) actively wanted this. As I said the Soviets in 1945 were formidable, and there is no doubt they would have willingly kept on fighting for a while. Soviet production was very good at this time, but America had just started to flex her industrial might, and the US had not lost 20 million. Throw in the staunch anti-communist Churchill and De Gaulle (and maybe some ex-Wehrmacht), and the West was certainly capable of fighting too. The question would have been American public resolve to fight the Soviets (with many, many more American dead) balanced against the losses the Soviets had already suffered. How many more men could Stalin really have called up? Who was left? It is hard to find Soviet men of that era who did not fight all of them had been put into uniform. The question was never answered, but for war gamers the What If? of 1946 remains another point of interest
50
Why and How I play Soviets: I began playing Soviets because most people I knew wanted to play Germans on the East Front. I started running them and found out that I enjoyed it. At the platoon level, they can operate well (in the Late War anyway), and are fully capable of winning battles. It is only at a larger scale that the deficiencies really begin to spread. Lack of communication, sluggish response, tactical inflexibility. However, at the platoon or company level, that does not matter as much. I dont run my Soviets like mindless bullet stoppers. I use them aggressively, and am willing to accept casualties to achieve goals, but I try to use them intelligently. I try not to get involved in fights for fire superiority, because I will lose that almost every time. I try to use maneuver to unhinge German positions, because up close the Germans arent any better than my Soviets. I field PTRD ATR teams every game, and will employ Maxim teams over mortars, even though the mortars can sometimes be more useful. My indirect artillery goes after German ATGs, other artillery, and infantry in buildings, in that order. As a last resort, when things start going bad, I begin to shout Urrahh! Urrahh! UURRRAAHHH!! and throw in everyone. Credits: I am not an expert. There are so many layers of details that I can not even begin to encompass them all, but I have gone out and looked for good sources where I could find them. And there are a lot. One of the problems I discovered after decades of interest and reading, and over three years of game designing, I have trouble saying where I first learned some information, or where I got a specific set of data. Some of the data I have I have not been able to relocate the original source, or find other sources to re-verify it with. But I am still using it. I apologize to the authors out there that I am not mentioning here, any failure to properly acknowledge a source is not deliberate.
