A base’s momentum is less about slogans and more about whether the meter is still spinning.
More from this faction
Conscript
Civilians answering the Soviet call to arms. Enlistment is free, so the price is mostly the rifle and the coat. They soak a little more punishment than the GI next door.
Flak Trooper
Convicts looking for a pardon, hauling flak guns that throw hot shrapnel at aircraft and anyone unlucky enough to be nearby.
Tesla Trooper
Heavy insulated armor and a man-portable Tesla arc. Vehicles especially regret meeting one.
