Hello to everybody!

This is my first post on your forum.
I am playing the H2H (WaW 7.1 + H2H Final Release) now and very impressed - the game is fantastic!
Though it lacks modern graphics (low resolution) the game by itself is VERY GOOD!
So here's my question:
I'm often playing for Soviet side and noted that till 40 there are no strike elements  (actually till the october of 40), no airborne troops, no NKVD troops (analog of german SS troops) at all.
Is there any patch or Mod that solves this problem?

BTW - a very urgent question for me. What are the bombers for?
Since they can only be assigned during the deployment phase there is no use of them in combat.
And are there any air spotter aircrafts in the game?

Thanks in advance.

I have not heard about fixes for OOBs, you may want to try Alby's mod for WaW. There may be elite infantry for Russians.

You can punch a good sized hole into enemy lines during turn 0 with bombers, there is usually not a single unit within 3-4 hexes of the center of the strike that can do any resistance.

No air spotters in H2H.

The Enhanced SPWAW Mod has NKVD troops as well as many other new and different varieties in all oobs that previous version of SPWAW do not..

Hello Dimitry,

There 2 other SP games available. These are WinMBT, and WinWW2. Both are free downloads from:

http://www.shrapnelgames.com

WinMBT covers the years 1949 thru 2020, and WinWW2 covers 1930 thru 1949.

Both games have airstrikes, spotting aircraft.

MBT, with the later technology has many other features - helicopters, SEAD, COIN, gunships, ATGM, laser range finders - these are only a few. The unit choices in both WW2 and MBT are much greater than in any SPWAW based game.

If you are looking for early ww2 battles, WinWW2 is a very good selection...

I'm playing these two games already for about 2 years.
And you can find my posts on Shrapnel MBT forums - I have same nickname there. But thank you for your kind help!
