	The VDV were the Soviets' response to the question "why are your infantry so crappy?" to which they broke their vodka bottles and shived the questioning <s>wargamer</s> ~~cyka~~. With your expected Soviet morale and assault, they also have a 4+ skill which is particularly unique for Soviets who typically have 5+ skill. Unit sizes are somewhere between NATO infantry and your <s>unshaved Gopnik hordes</s> unstoppable all-volunteer crusade. Their loadouts allow them to take on all but the latest NATO tanks (curse you, Chobham!). With 4+ assault, 3+ morale and decent unit sizes, they are one of the only infantry units capable of beating dug-in British infantry in assaults alongside American Airborne: they are also the only PACT infantry with assault ratings better than 5+.

	Most notably, the VDV can only be bought from an Air Assault Battalion which disallows anymore than a single company of tanks. These units will form the bulk of your force, supported by Hinds.

	Afgantsy formations are special because you can bring twice the normal number of Hinds to the field. When running the full 12 you often won't need many other anti-tank units. At point levels less than 100 points this is often enough to swarm and destroy enemy AA, but these lists are very vunerable to manpacked guided ~~missles~~ when playing against mech companies.

	If you loiter your aircraft until your infantry can clear the enemy AA, or failing that bring the hinds on table just as you are about to assault, you can really cause NATO some problems even without the aid of heavy armor.

144.121.121.99: clearer as the actual number is still hazy, note the youngest afghansty veterans were born in 1969, though most are from between 1950-1965; more senior leadership was born even earlier although Ukrainian sources indicate that some veterans in their 80s have joined the fight so it's possible a small number of people who held leadership positions during that time are still around
