Настольная игра
Dust Tactics может принести много радостей.
Например, своими танками:
Или командой из трех героев SSU Hero Pack:
Но особенно меня порадовал SSU Commissar's Squad:
Описание с коробки: "The bark of a Commissar's orders will whip even the most raw recruit into potent combatant. This five-man Commissar Squad comes equipped with short-range PPSh-48's, a PTRS-47 Bazooka and DPM MG. As a group, they are capable of dealing with any threat; individually, each can function as a potent commander of any SSU squad."
"Сила идеологии
Как политическим офицерам Китайско-Советского Союза, отрядам Комиссаров поставлена задача обеспечивать соблюдение идеологии Советов. Члены этой команды могут быть присоединены к другим отрядам или использоваться как отдельный отряд. Каждый комиссар обладает специальными способностями или вооружением отряда, который усиливает собой. Не важно, как вы используете Комиссаров, отдельным юнитом или нет, такой отряд - мощное дополнение к вашей армии.

Still, the soldiers of the SSU’s fifth infantry had a job to do, and their Commissar was committed to seeing it done. “The Fonvinzin,” as the men called him, bit down on his cigar, then surveyed his men, staring into their eyes. They might not all survive the sprint into position, but he could see that they would follow. He stood up and began to run…
Also known as the “Drakoni,” this collection of five Commissars can work together to rain destruction down upon both enemy squads and walkers, but they can also do something different, something that gives them a unique place in the SSU army: they can split up to join other squads.
Because a Commissar adds its skills and hit points to any squad it joins, just like a hero, you can create elite, skilled squads at a cost lower than you’d have to pay to add a hero. Or you can add a hero, too, and create an exceptionally specialized or talented team of SSU infantry.
Lead developer Mack Martin comments on the army build options the Commissars afford players:
"One of the combinations that will be readily apparent to many SSU players, is the addition of a Commissar with Assault, like The Fonvinzin, to a unit that already has Assault. Not only is it a great way to get rapid units into position, but if the Commissar uses his first, he can be safely removed as a casualty. While a player can't activate both in the same turn, the ability to use Assault twice in a game gives a unit a unique tactical advantage. All for just a few points. Combine this with a hero like Yakov, who specializes at close range, and an SSU player has a powerful ball of close range death on the field!
That’s just one of the many options the SSU Commissar Squad affords you. Alternatively, you could add “The Karamzin” to your SSU Battle Squad to bolster the unit with a welcome threat to enemy walkers. When you reinforce your Frontoviki with The Karamzin and his PTRS-47 bazooka, your opponent’s combat walkers can no longer approach the squad with impunity. Meanwhile, The Karamzin changes the dynamic of your squad for a mere seven points, much less than the cost of a hero. And that’s the point of these Commissars; they are shining examples of the SSU’s ideals, dispersed among the ranks to"
