where's th Katyusha in the soviet compendium ???

[the red son]

I've noticed that the famous katyusha is not in the book. Why??

The germans have their nebelwerfer and it was shooting at greater range than the katyusha.

I'm , very

That's probably one of the things that come under the generic "Artillery Strike" option that the command squads can buy, which covers all off-table artillery such as mortars, rockets, self-propelled guns as well as standard artillery pieces. Does seem a bit odd that the Nebelwerfer is in the German lists, unless it was sometimes deployed like the mortar support teams. Ask Agis about this one, he wrote the lists

I'm going to simply use the Nebelwerfer stats and points

I used a Solido truck (1:50ish) and mated it to a 1/72 BM-13 (nobody makes a soviet MRL in a 28mm size)

I'll add the truck points to the Nebelwerfer point and off we go!!!

When the Soviets assaulted Berlin - the size of the built up area and number of buildings made artillery and rocket support problematic - so they issued units rockets and individual rails to carry and use as direct fire support - still working on points & such for these - but they will have the 'One Shot' trait

Comments welcome

dsfrankevo and Iain McGhee answered that one perfectly!

I used Supporting Artillery in my games for the Soviet Rocket launcher.

If you really want to use the vehicle on the table take the Nebelwerfer as a stand in as dsfrabkevo said!
