With over 70,000 units produced the T-34 is famous for its unconventional design. When it arrived early in the war the T-34 became a threat that the German's just couldn't handle. Designed to replace the monster sized KV tank series, the IS-2 was just as big and heavy but was even nastier. Equipped with a massive 122mm gun, its intention was to be a breakthrough tank, demolishing fortifications and clearing enemy positions.

Two brutal armoured platoons come from this starter set, both with the potential to break entire armies. Forming the main battle line would be the IS-2s, with tough armour, a gargantuan 122mm gun and 3 machine guns, you can send this platoon to clear the path for the follow-up task force. Which would be the T-34 Squadron, who have plenty of armour and firepower to sweep away whatever remains.
The T-34/85
The T-34/85 became to be known as the 'ultimate' version of the T-34 series, combining the revolutionary design alongside an 85mm gun turret, this tank became the apex of battle tanks. Equipped with a heavy anti-tank gun and 2 MMGs, this tank can deal with the heaviest tanks alongside numerous squads of infantry.
The IS-2
With a super heavy anti-tank gun and 3 machine guns, you want the IS-2 to take down dangerous enemy units. Coupled with a 10+ armour stat, you can almost guarantee it's survival to boot.
