Authentic USSR divisions
Although the description of Steel Division 2 speaks a lot about "extremely detailed divisions" reproduced "with historical accuracy", for many of USSR divisions this statement is quite far from truth, mostly due to lack of sources. This modification, to the best of its capabilities, tries to correct the mistakes present in-game and brings Soviet divisions closer to their real prototypes, as they fought on the battlefields throught 1944.
Divisions changed: all USSR ones, 7. Eesti Laskurdiviis, 1 Piechoty "Tadeusza Kosciuszki", Armia Krajowa and Corpul VI Teritorial. Prebuilt battlegroups and Autofill have been adapted to the changes. Full changelog is in the discussions.
Modification is intended for custom battles against AI, and does not affect Army General campaigns. It is not advised to use it in multiplayer against players who do not have the mod installed.
Note: Deleted units will still appear in the Armory as part of their former divisions. This is done to ensure compatibility with game updates.
Required DLC: Death on the Vistula, Fate of Finland and Black Sunday, for USSR T-60 recon tank in 26-ya Gvard. Strelkovy, Pe-2 in 84-ya Gvard. Strelkovy and Tu-2 in Fedyunkina.
Recommended DLC: Reinforcement Pack #1, Preorder Pack, Nemesis #1 – Sandomierz, Nemesis #2 – Lvov Offensive, Burning Baltics.
