Nemesis #4.2 Preview - 2-ya Tamanskaya Gv. MSD
Welcome back, commanders.
We return with another Nemesis #4 - Capital Defence preview. In today’s DevBlog, we’ll look at the Warsaw Pact’s renowned Soviet 2-ya Tamanskaya Gvardeyskaya Motostrelkovaya Diviziya or the 2nd Guards Tamanskaya Motorized Rifle Division tasked with defending the capital of the USSR, Moscow.
Onwards, comrades!
[h2]2-ya Tamanskaya Gvardeyskaya Motostrelkovaya Diviziya[/h2]
We have already modelled the following units for the Warsaw Pact division. More are on the way, but let’s do a sneak peek of what you can expect.
[h3]Command & Control[/h3]
First up is the POTOK-2 command vehicle. A purpose-built C&C vehicle, envisioned to be used in BMP mechanized infantry regiments. The unit features a telescopic antenna mast (which is folded on our model below).
[h3]Big Wheels[/h3]
Remaining in the Logistics lab: one of the division’s new supply units is the big-wheeled 6x6 MAZ-535A SNAB truck.
[h3]The Guard Dies but Does Not Surrender![/h3]
Although their organization and equipment is similar to a regular Motostrelki squad, the Moscow-based GVARDEITSY differ in two crucial aspects: they all receive the Resolute trait, and the 3D models will feature a mix of TTsKO uniforms (as found in 27-ya GvMSD) and new outfits made specifically for them, including Altyn helmet, 6B3 body armor, leather jackets, etc.
[h3]Now I know my A-B-Cs[/h3]
In Nemesis #4 - Capital Defence’s pitch, our initial research indicated that the division’s organic tank force was mainly composed of T-72A Obr. 83. After some more digging, we found out they appeared to be T-72B1 Obr. 84 (see below). This means ATGM-less, but slightly better performance across the board. Their command tank was the very basic T-72AK.
While the tanks in motorized rifle regiments were T-72B1 Obr. 84, as mentioned above, those in the division’s lone tank regiment will be T-64B, with T-64AK command tanks (which we will duly represent).
[h3]Ultimate Boss[/h3]
Next up is a unit that many of you have been eagerly awaiting: Warsaw Pact’s likely new apex predator, the T-80U Obr. 89. Within our timeframe, the first models of this state-of-the-art main battle tank would likely roll out of the factory as the likelihood for conflict in Europe is at a boiling point, delivered in priority to the politically reliable Moscow garrison. Although it features the same level of protection as the T-80UD, it contains a better motor and drive train, plus fields the brand-new Invar ATGM.
In our initial pitch, we mentioned T-80UD from the sister 4-ya GvMSD being attached to the division. But with an already wide array of organic tank variants (T-72K, T-72B1 Obr.84, T-64AK, T-64B), we have removed those in order to shine a brighter light on the T-80U Obr. 89.
[h3]SIGINT[/h3]
Looking rather innocuous, the RPS-6 VEKTOR can detect even well-camouflaged enemies at a distance. The unit is a GAZ-66 truck filled to the brim with SIGINT equipment.
[h3]The Ultimate Fulcrum[/h3]
And finally, the cherry on the cake, the MIG-29 9.13, a variant with a new livery and improved ECM.
[h2]Nemesis #4 - Capital Defence[/h2] Nemesis #4 - Capital Defence focuses on two unique battlegroups, tasked to safeguard their respective nation’s capital during the Cold War: NATO’s UK’s Home Defence Region London (or H.D.R. London) and the Warsaw Pact’s Soviet 2-ya Tamanskaya Gvardeyskaya Motostrelkovaya Diviziya or 2nd Guards Tamanskaya Motorized Rifle Division covering Moscow, USSR.
In this Nemesis DLC plenty of new units will be featured: from grey-clad SAS G special forces, state-of-the-art AS.90 155mm self-propelled artillery and heavy BLOODHOUND MK.2 SAMs, to GVARDEITSY infantry, unique T-80U obr. 1989 with Kontakt-5 ERA, and advanced MiG-29 9.13 air defense fighters. Check our presentation here for the full roster of each division.
Nemesis #4 is being prepared for release in the not-too-distant future.
[h2]Until Next Time[/h2]
That’s all. We’ll be back next week with a roadmap detailing the future for WARNO and all the good stuff that is coming your way!
