Update v1.10 - Rifle Divisions
My comrade, in your final agony,
don’t bother calling to friends.
Better that your steaming blood
should warm my freezing hands.
Don’t cry and moan, you’re not a child,
you’re not wounded, you’re merely shot dead.
I’ll take your boots to remember you by –
there’s still lots of fighting ahead.
- Vasily Grossman
v1.10 Patch notes:
- 508 new insignias for Rifle Divisions.
Examples:
All (unless no info found) historical rifle divisions have been researched using russian sources.
If the divisions had any major awards at the start of the 1941 Campaign, they have been added
to the insignia upper right corner. Some also have their origin flag symbol showed in the upper
left corner, like the 201st Latvian Rifle Division for example. Some divisions were awarded the
Honorary Revolutionary Red Banner; these divisions insignias have a red star with extra ray effect,
similar style to some real Honorary Revolutionary Red Banners. In some cases liberties have been
taken adding some extra graphics to insignia (like the 249th Rifle Division formed mostly by
NKVD personnel). Some divisions full names are so long that you barely can read what it says
(or not) on the insignia (if you can read cyrillic). It's unfortunate, but I've tried to make it as
readable as possible, using the current insignia style. If you cannot read the text and want to know
the division full names you can go to the Russian Wikipedia page linked below. There you will find a
list over most Rifle Divisions in the Great Patriotic War. Each page has the full name of the division.
Use Google Translate if you need, it works well:

(Possibly in the future there will be an english version of this mod, but no promises.)
As always, if you notice something off, or just have suggestions/feedback, let me know!
