Return To The USSR: Red Bear Revisited One of our most popular books in Flames Of War is the Red Bear compilation. It includes all of the game’s Late-war Allied forces on the Eastern Front, such as the Soviets, Romanians, and a Polish Warsaw Uprising force. The armies within cover all of the current forces from 1944, a pivotal year on the eastern front. If you are interested in Soviets and their allies, this is an essential book to have. With the upcoming release of Desperate Measures, a book about the Soviet and German tank battles in early 1945, and a reprint scheduled for Red Bear (standard reprint to update low stock), we realised that we were at a unique moment in time. These two books represent all of our published material on Late-war Soviet forces, and so we had a unique opportunity to update the popular Red Bear and also address some of the excellent feedback coming from players across the globe.
The key change in these books is that we have increased the discount for tanks affected by the Soviet Hen & Chicks Special Rule. After some intense testing and discussion (many thanks to our tireless playtesters for their help and patience!), we have restored Tankovy points to about the same points level found in the old Hammer & Sickle book. Unit Type Old Points New Points
10 T-34 obr 1942 450 points 350 points
10 T-34/85 obr 1944 645* points 570* points
See the table to the right for examples. Note that the T-34/85 prices include cupolas which are no longer optional.
This will help Soviet tankovy players field a sizable force that is more than capable of competing against other similar forces.
To round out the update, we’ve incorporated all of the errata and corrections from Lessons from the Front, including the important change to make 76mm ZiS-3 and 57mm ZiS-2 guns medium guns rather than heavy guns. This will allow players to ambush with them at close range to crush enemy assaults before they reach their lines. Other changes include adding Cossack companies as support options throughout the book, and more."
