Where should the former USSR nations go

• Case by case nation distribution
• Case by case vehicle distribution
• Outside of the USSR (sub or full tree)
• USSR subtree

[Pipimer]

The Central Asia ones should be in the USSR TT, Ukraine shouldn’t be added in WT or a subtree to Poland/Central Europe and for the Baltic a subtree maybe in Poland/Central Europe, Azerbaijan a Subtree to Future Turkish TT? Armenia would be better of in USSR TT, all this are my personal opinions

[Sandsmann]

A former USSR state tech tree would literally just be the USSR tech tree, So it would add little to nothing of value to the game, It would literally just be a copy of the tree we already have up to 10.0 and even after that its just going to be mostly Russian stuff with a few slightly modded things.

Vehicles from before the USSR breakup would just be in the USSR/Russian tree anyway, So you would only be left with the small number of things made after, Which again would mostly be slightly modded leftovers from the USSR days and a few imports.

For the few things that are entirely new, It would probably not make much sense for the Russian tree to get depending on the nation in question, Since a lot of the former USSR states really do not like Russia right now.

This is why I think the Ex-USSR nations (for the most part) should be a subtree of the USSR tree, Since most of it the equipment is modernized versions of older Soviet equipment, or at least heavily based on said equipment.

the only caviate to this imo would be imports. Things like F-16s, M2Ks, Gripens, Rafales for Ukraine could instead be made into camouflages for their Home nations (i.e. a Gripen C with a Ukranian camo in Sweden).

@Pipimer

Azerbaijan a Subtree to Future Turkish TT

Tbh I think if the countries had to be divided, Kazakhstan would also fit as a Turkish subtree since the two had a fair bit of collaboration.

@Pipimer

Baltic a subtree maybe in Poland/Central Europe,

Imo, the Baltics might also fit into Sweden but this would presumably come at the cost of other vehicles from Norway for example.

Apologies if this wasn’t a clear post but this was more a general discussion on the post soviet nations and their vehicles, I have no intention of suggesting every other former USSR state joining together as it would poise a similar problem with a conglomerate Eastern European tree (not enough room for everyone).

That’s a fair point since most nations (barring Kyrgyzstan and the Baltics) do have quite a lot of soviet based vehicles. My main concern personally is space. Seeing how Romania and India are implemented currently, I could see the same happening with pretty much most of the national listed here, mostly relegated to fomo events.

@Pipimer

Ukraine shouldn’t be added in WT or a subtree to Poland/Central Europe

I can agree on not adding Ukrainian vehicles for now but I do feel Ukraine can have a place once the fighting stops for a while.

[Tonedbasil69-live]

Give me polish tech tree with ukraine as a sub tree :p

[Balta779517-live]

Belarus and ex USSR central Asian countries can go in to the USSR IF there ever comes a day where the USSR needs a subtree.

Ukraine, Baltics can go to other new trees. Maybe the Caucasus countries aswell its a bit more 50-50 on those.
