Making Stalingrad a better place #1

Air bombing improvement

Currently Enlisted Signal Operators can request air strikes. However, I think that there are still many areas that need to be improved.

1. Select the desired airline in the main menu

Germany :

KG/27 - He-111 H-6

KG/51 - Ju-88 A-4

Soviet Union :

  • Pe-2

  • IL-4

2. Adjustment of width & formation according to aircraft selection

Ju_88_a4

The Ju-88 has four 250 kilo bombs.
A squadron of two Ju-88s dropped 8 250 kg bombs within a square area of ​​20 m*25 m.

He_111_H6

The He-111 is a 50-kilo bomber with 32 rounds.
A squadron consisting of one He-111 and two BF-109 F4s dropped 32 50 kg bombs over a 5 m x 94 m rectangle.

Pe-2

Pe-2 4 250 kg bombs
A squadron of two Pe-2s dropped 8 250 kg bombs within a 20m*25m square area.

IL-4

IL-4: 10 100 kg bombs
A squadron of two IL-4s dropped 15 100kg bombs within a 15m*30m square.

All bombs are within 400 to 500 square metres.

3. Other improvements

  • A bomber appears from the end of the map, comes to the center of the map, drops a bomb, flies for another 30 seconds, turns gently, and returns to the way it came.

  • 300 points for intercepting bombers before bombing, 90 points for intercepting bombers after bombing

  • The escort responds to the player when intercepting, and when shooting down, 100 points like other fighters, and when leaving the map, it is recognized as a kill with a certain level of damage to the engine or fuel tank leakage.

  • When one of the two engines of the bomber stops or is caught in a fire, the aircraft departs in the direction in which the engine was damaged.

Amazing idea.
But, I’m not sure giving the germans the Ju-88 will be well received by the Stalingrad Allies main.

I’d start by unlocking all lvls for f2p players (and compensate those who paid in some way, like premium for X amount of time, some unique squad, etc) and adding at least 2 more maps. With those changes it would be enough for some time. This campaign has a lot of potential. After that yes, some more specific changes like the one you suggest.

Definitely needs…

  • Maps most of all. It is uncanny how the lack of maps is still a point after a couple of updates.
  • keep some vehicles unique to the campaign such as KV series
  • Hungarian and Romanian squads for Axis. Something else interesting for Soviets, I would personally like partisans, such as a group of bad ass T34 factory workers with rifles and guerilla weapons ! (it happened)
  • Winter conditions
  • Personally, I like the idea of night fighting. I know some people have argued against it, but the idea of fighting over Stalingrad’s tunnels and factories on a cold winter night just sound very apocalyptic and fun
  • Mostly I like the discourse around the campaign atm! I personally notice as a slight uptick in interest in revitalizing the campaign on the forum :)!I think they did a really good job with the interiors and general aesthetic of the buildings as well, just thought i’d note that.

I just want winter maps and non-bugging cloth.

You can select troops who are bugged, swap them around, press ok to take out of squad, then go back in a reselect them, this fixed alot of my helmet customization bugs.

But yes more maps, I love SG, it definitely needs to have a few more areas, some fancy squads added too.

I am slowly convincing my clan to play despite political P2W rep, they enjoy the fight on there and if you use stug or pzIIIN they both can one shot KV with HEAT, don’t watch pen marker.

Thank you for the hard work brother, keep winning over the skeptics hehe :). Good work against the KV, It usually proves to be a fortress against noobs ! Optimistic that maps and squads are on the way as well
