Units From Wyrmshadow

[Wyrmshadow]

This is what I have for a WW2 VDV (paratrooper)

Is there anything I need to change about his uniform, kit, boots, head gear?

 

[Wolfshade]

Maybe will be helpful:
parade photo, 1936;
WW2 winter & summer uniform examples;
kit.
Boots (according to description) - correct.

Root page (RU lang, but photos - even better).

I'll just leave it as is for equipment. I dont like how Firaxis made their paratrooper run around in combat with his parachute still on. I'll just keep it like how it is but with the green/brown flora camo.

I have been waiting awhile for a soviet ww2 para! I am excited for this one.

What do you think of this for late Cold War VDV?

Kalashnikov HMG.
Pecheneg HMG in usage since 1999, developed in 199x - it looks close to the Kalashnikov HMG, in Civ scale the difference will be even less recognizable, so the unit may be used not for a Cold War period only.

Wyrm, a question: death animation, why figure falls slowly a bit? This relates to other units too. Or it's just my own impression only? If yes - OK, time to slow down myself and enjoy life a bit.

Initial shot to the chest is what shoves him back, additional shot to the head is what brings him down more quickly. The first hit is what makes him look like he's falling slowing. After you see the head jerk back, it's faster.

Wyrm, thanks for clarification.

Ares, just don't forget these guys don't eat, drink, sleep. )) BBB equivalent in RU would be suitable. Too tired right now to share a good idea, sorry.
