Our Soviet Union (USSR)
- Thread starter CountofDooku
- Start date
Still writing and doing some stuff, as I would go bonkers otherwise, sure that drives my girls crazy wishing for me to get better and not leaving bed, but I would only get worse when I lay down and don't do anything.
I also propose to make it official stance of Soviet Union toward its citizens is developing one body and mind(from sport to various ways toward learning new stuff)This focus should start from kindergarten to adulthood(to 50 years or so).Btw you had something like this in original soviet union(mostly whit sports)do it was full of corruption like one time where some team won over kgb only for later kgb to learning how sport trainer for that team was a counter-revolutionary and next time that team lost to kgb!
The official poster that could be used only remove the letters
But socialism, the vision that guided us to our successful revolution, is based entirely on the siesure of power by the workers & farmers who let us not forget, represent the vast majority of our population.
I agree wholeheartedly with the above proposal. Any modern society should make the physical & mental health of its citizenry it's foremost priority for reasons both moral -our citizens deserve to lead long, happy & fulfilling lives- but also practical as healthy citizens are able to make greater contributions to society.I also propose to make it official stance of Soviet Union toward its citizens is developing one body and mind(from sport to various ways toward learning new stuff)This focus should start from kindergarten to adulthood(to 50 years or so).Btw you had something like this in original soviet union(mostly whit sports)do it was full of corruption like one time where some team won over kgb only for later kgb to learning how sport trainer for that team was a counter-revolutionary and next time that team lost to kgb!

Speaking of things that can improve people's mental health, what is the current status of LGBT people in our Union? OTL they enjoyed limited freedom with same-sex relationships & even "transgender activity" (as said on Wikipedia) being essentially legal in Russia itself, though homosexuals were still routinely fired from their jobs, but still being illegal in the rest of the former empire until ultimately Stalin re-criminalized it in 1933.
In no particular order but numbered for easy reference:
- I'd like to propose investing into a culture of continuous testing & improvement, standardisation, mechanisation and centralization.
- I'd also like equivalent youth programs like the scouts, or like the later (but then less evil variants obviously) Hitler Jugend (boys and girls!). Teach:
- healthcare
- Survival
- Navigation
- Teamwork
- Mission Command / Auftragstaktik
- Radio
- Math
- Physical prowess
- I'd like to propose using our new games to add competitions to boost desirable progress. Science, racing, (tractor) pulling, flying (endurance a well as speed), improvisation, navigation, radio
- I'd like our glorious leader to embrace radio addresses. To boost production and to increase national unity
- Our glorious leader is wearing glasses and has many Jewish friends in the old Bolshivik guard. Leverage both to establish a safe haven for the outcasts of Europe and leverage their knowledge about glass, diamonds and other jewellery and start becoming a frontrunner on lenses for eg magnifying glasses, binoculars and telescopes etc.
- Diversify the Soviet peasants crops. Eg Potatoes are still not universally accepted.
- Run Gosbank as an actual bank as well as a state tool but be very wary of corruption
- Reallocate the land in usable plots with long term "guardianship on behalf of the state" so its worthwhile to invest in your allocated land.
- Lean & JIT might be a tad too advanced but production optimisation and performance boosts ought to become part of local and national competitions for people to win rewards. Obviously not money as that wouldn't be communist, but all expenses paid tour's to share the knowledge and investment capital for more research and innovation is still very communist right comrade?
- Trains, trucks & tractors are the hammer and sickle of the industrial revolution. We need all of these to boost our glorious union

Seeing how many initiatives we have made, maybe @CountofDooku would you cover only Our USSR game this weekend and skip the others? 1 normal update, and 3 others covering the initiatives?

I also have a couple of military suggestions:
- In both Deep Battle as well as the Brusilov offensive we learned about:
- Concentration of firepower at shorter range, so Assault rifles, grenades and machine-guns over long range rifle fire.
- Huge amounts of ammunition are needed
- Accurate artillery coordination
- Radio
- Decentralised fire control
- Training
- Intelligence on where the weak points are (airial scouting)
- From WW1 and the Civil War we learned
- Logistics are king
- Mobility & Coordination are next
- Morale is next after that
- Sending out men to die breaks a nation, better to go the French way and go for armor and mechanisation
- If we combine all of the above we need standards
- 3 mortars 60mm/80mm/120mm
- 3 guns ~76mm/105mm/152mm
- 1 LMG, 1 GPMG (and a high density of those)
- 1 infantry anti tank weapon
- 1 rifle, 1 assault rifle
- 1 light tank, 1 medium tank (ww2: t-44), 1 heavy tank (1940 - kv-1 with better gun) - with a tank, spg and AAA variant for each
- 1 CCKW like truck (with Box, Canvas, Tanker (with pressure), AAA, APC back)
- 1 M25/Dragon Wagon like truck
- 2 Support vehicles one light, one heavy for recovery and engineering support
- 5 radios: infantry, arty, vehicles, airplane, navy
- Etc

when comes to youth programs you had it in original Soviet Union called Soviet Young Pioneers and i think it started like in 1922
Will have to skip them all for a week, including my Saddam one wich I had hoped to finish before the holidays, as I am getting better but still sick with flu to the extent I'm not leaving the bed and thanks to darling beliving cuddling warm would be a good idea against sickness we now are bot tied down to the bed and her sister, my sister and our nice have to aid grandma in coocking and preparing all dishes, so .... I'm mainly preparing for a few days in bed getting better and my beloved ones constant nagging of having no children of our own to increase the allready big Christmas/ Hanukkah celebration with our eccentric but lovable extendet families and clans. It's really a shame I wanted to cook with Helena and my grandma for all, but that's falling flat, not that this will stop my Grandma from cooking...
Defiently will adress that in one of the next updates reguarding military and a more modern Red Army.
Yeah I can see organisations like this, or what the Nazis and Italians had been adopted like in all such revolutionary changing/ authoritarian states.when comes to youth programs you had it in original Soviet Union called Soviet Young Pioneers and i think it started like in 1922
Also I sincerely apopogize for any misspellings and writing errors, as I actually have a sickness related problem seeing so good at the moment, all is blurred/ fuzzy, wich is also why I have given into my beloved ones to take a few days off sadly from my favorite writing hobbies (luckily work is done since saturday and holidays are here) and like my evil, female counterpart girlfriend put it so nively, thanks to my disability and breathing problems I should take it slower, as after all any normal flu is allready quit dangerous for someone with roughtly 1/3 of the normal lung capacity and breathing abilities, so I will take a rest and a few days off sadly.
Still I truely hate doing nothing, my body cannot truely sit still if his life dependet on it, makes me nervous, makes me uneasy.
No problem mate health is most important, get well and marry xmas and hanukkah
We will try to get fit, can't have another one of these everyone gets everyone sick holidays
By the way whats the general perception of USSR in the west after our recent actions and imitiatives?We will try to get fit, can't have another one of these everyone gets everyone sick holidays
Still majorly mistrust, but some especialy in Britain and Germany are slowly getting warmer (mainly Bavaria, as well as inside the left movements of Hungary).
And the soviet population in general and polands reaction to our diplomacy with france and germany?
France and Germany are warming up and many left-wing parties see the SU as a success story and role model.
Good, but I meant what was the reaction of Polish government to our recent diplomatic actions
