Soviet Avatars! Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

Greetings Comrades!

I have taken the liberty to make up a few avatars that we might use in our posts, just to spice up the feel a little bit. Of course you are welcome to use them as your regular avatar, but that not neccisarily needed. If you want others, request them now. Some are for specific use only.

I had debated with Henrik the posibility of a rank structure, based on performance/ participation. We'll see, as things are admitiedly slow right now. Might be fun though to add some spice!

Here are the avatars for the use of the People!*


  • Marshal

  • Propaganda Commisar

  • Economic Commisar?

  • Armaments Commisar

  • Generals( Any other design ideas?)

  • Red Army 1

  • Red Army 2

  • Red Guard 1

  • Red Guard 2

  • Cavalry

  • Shock Trooper

  • Siberian Trooper

  • Siberian Guards

  • Naval Infantry

  • NKVD Trooper

  • Soviet Citizen



I currently have no images for the other 2 Ministers to use (which I think we should begin calling Commisars BTW). Also we'd need something for Pravda contributors. Any ideas?

What do you guys think, should these be up for grabs (from the Red Army down) and all can be picked from. or should like the red army 1 be peoples starting rank, and as you participate more and actually post your thoughts etc, you get to move up to guardsmen, shock trooper etc.

Thoughts?

yeah they look awesome. As for avatars for the other comissars: have you looked at Alex's Russian Civil War scenario? I has an agitator unit which might work for something, but most importantly it has a comissar unit. It's fun scenario anyway

As you progress you should also increase in rank, methinks.

I had looked through RCW, thats where I got The Propaganda Commisar. I don't know, I passed Alex's Komisar up the first time through, maybe he could be the Armaments Commisar?



He looks a bit too early 20th century to me? No?

That Marshal looks very good fairline, I'd use him. As for the other Commisars, alas I have no ideas.. I'll look through some of the scenarios I've got, but I guess you all have them too....

it also seems some Generals are getting too big for their britches and selecting avatars that are not a correct representation of their position. Indeed, purges are needed...

No I want Front Commanders to wear the Brown Feild Uniform. They are "in the feild" anyway.

The pretty uniform with the red stripped pants is for the Marshall.

Is everyone clear on this now!

Then drop it, Im getting bored with this topic. The Anzac changed so Im happy now.

Well, the avatar is very cool. But I'd rather see a coal miner or a man shovelling coal in a steel mill. Or wait, that should be the Armaments Minister

Con, you're right, I just wanted to point out the irony of the anti-capitalist worker's paradise led by a capitalist.

I do like the avatar, and some day, god willing, when I break that magic 500...
