Comrade, is cool reward of glorious soviet tech and cultural goods, but have to deduct points. Is MOTHERland, not FATHERland. Please report back to Vassily for labor punishment.
"Fatherland"? So we are defending Germany against the sovjets? I mean... It's "Vaterland" vs "Mother Russia".
Great.. how about some Jets SB tournaments? or 2v2, 4v4 SB torunaments in general...
Where are the "shield" decorations, I just miss one to complete my collection.
How do the tournaments work? I want to try them out but they look very serious
