3rd Shock Army

[Tazak]

Just for giggles I created the entire of 3rd Shock Army (3rd CAA for those fussy buggers out there), I got a bit creative when it came to versions of stuff and I'm sure I missed a few things but on the whole this is what 1 BR Corp would be facing

That's a lot of tanks, infantry & APCs and arty

[Ardi]

Not bad, but I want to ask you, if this is 1989? Since the TOE would be quite different then.

[Tazak]

No, went with early 1980's period so still had a mix of T62/T64/T72 and before they received T80's

[Alex1812]

I think that BMP-2PG [gm] and BTR-70 [g] are the special vehicles for Afgan war only. Never saw pictures of these vehicles in Europe

[Tazak]

Alex, I'm working on a revised WP user data sheet (similar to the BAOR ones I did) do you have details of other equipment that was "out of scope" for WGSF
