When playing as the Russians, the Katyusha trucks stood out as one of my favourites. Unlike some of the mods in this list, Eastern Front tries to stick close to the original gameplay mechanics, which should appeal to the fans of the original game. Similarly to the original game, both of the new factions have their own unique buildings, command trees and units. The Russians are often seen outnumbering the Ostheer's German steel on the new community driven maps this mod adds. Both factions add new dynamics to the game and provide some needed fresh air due to the contrasting playstyles. Now on Steam, Eastern Front shifts the scope of the game by adding two new playable skirmish and multiplayer factions the Russians and the Ostheer.
