====BMP Shock Motor Rifle Company==== [[File:Shock Motor Rifle Stats.jpg|300px|left|thumb|Moar Stats]] A new variant of Soviet infantry, only available as in-formation support for the T-80 shock company. These are highly capable fighters, whose stats put the Afghantsy veterans to shame. Still having the same rock solid Soviet morale/rally, Shock rifles have a Skill rating of 3+, Assault 4+, and are hit on a NATO-esque 4+. This makes them slightly superior to West German panzergrenadiers, and flat out better than most other infantry. Coming in BMP 3s and rocking the RPG 7 VR stock, as well as having the same heavy weapon options as the standard Motor Rifles, this unit is equipped to handle most battlefield situations. To save a few points, they can be downgraded to BMP 2s. Their transports likewise share their awesome stat line. Naturally, all of this does not come without cost. Available in small (4 AK, 3 RPG, 4 BMP) and medium (6 AK, 5 RPG, 1 PKM, 6 BMP) size only, the Shock company is smaller than their standard brethren, though still larger than most NATO infantry units in the case of the medium company. They are also quite expensive, with the medium company weighing in at 24 points with BMP 3s, or 21 points with BMP 2s. For comparison, a medium BMP 2 motor rifle company with upgraded RPGs costs 1 point less, and has an additional AK, RPG, and PKM base, as well as three extra BMPs. Having said that, the additional cost may not be entirely unjustified. Being hit on 4+, reliably using orders, and hitting harder in assaults makes the Shock rifles far more self-sufficient. Likewise, their transports can use movement orders and line of sight blocking terrain to play peekaboo with enemy units and stay alive rather than relying on target overload. The unit will certainly require a different approach that Soviet players are used to.
