I don't know how accurate this "legion of Russians" is, but I thought to share this video.
I read about it a few more times, but I don't really have any facts about it.
It almost sounds like they are not going to fight inside Ukraine, but in Russia. I don't know.

Overall sounds like the update will be ready when it's ready. I'll download it when it's done.

Check back in a couple of weeks, by then we should have a better idea of a release date. FOR SURE it won't be next week

For a lot of reasons expect this year to be the last update for both games. If there's another one it's because something SERIOUSLY needs fixing or we both had brain farts and forgot what a massive PITA it is to do this every year.

24 years is a long time to do anything

Also do not expect the number of scenarios in either game like in the past few years. Neither of our main scenario / campaign contributors have had a good year in any way, shape or form.

Just wanted to give a quick thank you for the hard work you guys have done to keep this game going all these years. Hope we will all still be playing this for many years to come.

Well though this is good news for the N/NE Ukraine, it will not be for the East. Several news agencies have for instance have shown a slightly over 8-mile column of trucks and 100's (unspecified number of) of various armored vehicles.

Russia is preparing for what they should've done from the beginning, strike on a concentrated semi-broad front out of Donbas region and Crimea with the goal to encircle a large part of the Ukrainian forces that have been defending the Donbas region for the last 5-6 years. .

If the Ukraine losses here and more so doesn't extract a large portion of those troops, it will lead to potentially opening up of the central part of the country and to major/substantial Russian territorial gains.

This upcoming offensive, somewhat underway now as the video Don posted shows, will determine the fate of the country and who'll be in the "driver's seat" at the negotiating table.

Some Generals (Ours) can see the upcoming offensive as being the largest battle in that part of Europe since 1943.

Of course, they would be speaking of the Battle of Kursk (or Battle of Prokhorovka, Kursk.)

The big shift for Russia beyond their force deployment is that they've centralized the command authority by appointing Gen. Aleksandr V. Dvornikov who's a very experienced having served in the Second Chechen War and was Commander of Russian forces in Syria.

Government officials also reporting here that apparently Ukraine has/or roughly has, a 10:1 advantage in Javelins to Russian tanks committed in the Ukraine area. If even at halve that number that would be significant advantage.

Slovakia (Corrected.) as was confirmed this morning, has sent all their S-300 systems to the Ukraine they should already be there sometime today or tomorrow at latest their time.

We have sent them a full Patriot Battery I'm sure of course manned by our troops.

Need to verify which S-300 they operated which could lead to significant increase to performance capabilities.

Round 1 goes to the Ukraine hands down. Round 2 could decide the game.
