EASTERN FRONT: SOVIET STORM

Welcome to the Eastern Front comrades!.
The Motherland calls you!.

This mod features a full coverage of the Eastern Front events during the Second World War, it adds a much more deep immersion than the vanilla game. For now it is focused on the Soviet side of the war, so you will be able to play and enjoy a LOT of new historical Soviet units and other stuff.
The project includes a full campaign (The Forgotten Campaigns) in which you will command your forces from the very early days of Barbarossa until the end of the war. The scenarios feature battles and events not covered in the vanilla PzC and most the WW2 games out there... the forgotten campaigns, but also some important ones like Moscow and Berlin.

In addition, you will be able to take control of the Red Army in the new big scale scenario covering the entire war on the Eastern Front, from the first days of Barbarossa until the first half of 1945. Be ready to serve the Motherland in The Great Patriotic War.
Important: I strongly suggest to check the Library to learn the mechanics and rules of this scenario, otherwise you will miss important info.
