Hot on the heels of the German book is the Soviet Vehicle Compendium. The British and US Vehicle Compendium will follow soon. These are written and reviewed but otherwise on hold.
The book - a pdf only version - is your comprehensive guide to using Soviet Armoured Fighting Vehicles in Battlefield Evolution: World at War.
You get a full colour version with many high quality pictures of fully painted models. In addition a text only printer friendly version is also included.
The book provides new Traits (like Double Suppression, Recon and Unreliable vehicles) an AFV force list, options to use captured equipment and an extended Soviet armoury to add to your games of World at War.
All vehicles in this book are consistent with existing vehicles in the Battlefield Evolution: World at War rule book also written by me.
