It's interesting that on the inverse, the Russians have no problem making games about defeats in war. There was a Russian RTS/3PS hybrid a while back that focused pre-Stalingrad WWII. I made a mental note to track that game down about two years ago, and have since forgotten the title. (Apologies if this is a little rambling.)
no problem. it wouldnt be codename: panzer phase one or something? that did that kind of thing, playing as german, russian then allies. the allies were easily the least interesting characters
anyway, it sounds good. if you remember, tell me. i find that for some reason the best games have the least americans. i have nothing against americans really, but see - red alert 1 (60% german actually), cryostasis and MW1+2. maybe its because 99% of games and films have americans, its nice to have a change sometimes.
russian/eastern european games are especially interesting, but they require a bit of knowledge about cultures and superstitions. see cryostasis again
