And we have people working on Germany vs. Russia maps - putting Ivan against whole of NATO.

Could you say that Russia is against everybody? Havn't they joined some kind of NATO-equivalent together with the Chinese and central Asian states?

lol Russia doesnt need any nato crap they own

Well where to put Russia ? Historically they pretty much kept out of wars, unless attacked. Hitler helped Stalin kill off some more Russians, then there is Afghanistan, thats about it, no ? Maybe we should reconsider too many factions. Now you want to add the Germans too ? If one has a favourite faction, like the brits or the Americans, then there might be only like 2 maps on the server where he gets to play as said faction.

To the guy above and the quoted guy, history fail. The had the warsaw pact. If you are talking post cold war I dont think they have anything on that line. Chechens showed how overvalued Russian military is, at least when it comes to fighting like a big modern army without having WWII style casualities.

Right now Putin feels kind of cornered with many former pact countries joining NATO (should be NATO+ at that point) and other countries who would like to join but are not allowed to to keep Russia good.

If you can put "good" versus "good" then I'd like to see US vs. Canada .

There was a 18 page discussion about it on PRT,which you'll see Russian is not on the same side with the NATO.
Dont want to bring subject here but latest war against Georgia(was a NATO candidate) was one of the main reasons to stop NATO "agression" against Russia(n) (hinterland),again UK bomber intercepter crisis,the other missile crisis in East Europe,Independence of Kosowo and Russian reaction + Shanghai Cooperation organistion.

Well the Russians probably would not side with the Chinese because of some sh&@ that was stird up in the 70's. So I think everyone the the Russians!

Yes, but it was the 70's. Russia was a part of the USSR. Things have changed. In the 70's people were paranoid about the Red Chinese overrunning the USA. The Cold War was still on. The British had bomber planes, Vietnam was always in the news, Jimi Hendrix was alive. Point being this is not the 70's, this is the 21st Century, things are a little different.

The policy with Russia right now is to sit out a leadership still trapped in the cold war and wait for modern leaders. Putin was important, to keep Russia toegether, but I do not see what he, through the President, can do for Russias future.
