Command the Red Army

-
Strong board presence
-
Aggressive advances
-
Infantry support
-
Armored attacks
-
Objective control
-
Coordinated pushes
-
Attrition
-
Maintaining battlefield momentum
Rather than relying entirely on individual elite units, Soviet commanders can coordinate different elements of their force to pressure important areas of the battlefield.
Infantry & Battlefield Control
Infantry plays an important role in establishing Soviet control over contested territory.
Use your troops to occupy key positions, contest objectives, support armored units, and force the opposing commander to commit resources to stopping your advance.
This makes the faction particularly appealing in scenarios where controlling territory is more important than simply destroying enemy units.
Soviet Armor
Armored vehicles provide the Soviet force with additional offensive power.
Coordinate infantry and armor rather than operating them independently, using each unit type to support the other as your force pushes toward important objectives.
This combined-arms approach fits naturally with the tactical foundation of Company of Heroes.
Faction-Specific Components
The Soviet Player Set includes dedicated gameplay materials for commanding the faction.
These include:
-
Soviet Unit Cards
-
Faction-specific Command Cards
-
Supporting tokens and components
-
Soviet miniatures
These components integrate with the existing Company of Heroes rules, allowing the faction to join standard games without replacing the core system.
Expand Your Multiplayer Games
Adding another playable faction gives your group more matchup possibilities and allows additional players to develop their own dedicated forces.
The Soviet Player Set is particularly useful for:
-
Players choosing the USSR as their primary faction
-
Groups expanding beyond the Core Set armies
-
Eastern Front-themed scenarios
-
Multiplayer collections
-
Narrative campaigns
-
Players looking for a pressure-focused army
