119's "Alternate Showdown" Edges:


 * Riflemen: The STG-46 seems to be an updated STG-44, placing it roughly on par with the AK-47. In terms of experience and training, the Nazis score higher, placing more emphasis on training, while the Soviets favored waves of cannon fodder. For this reason, in a fight with even numbers, the Third Reich wins.


 * CQC infantry: Ordinarily, I'd go with the German shotgunners, as a shotgun has greater range than a flamethrower, however, the Soviet flame troopers even this up with the ability to launch an incendiary projectile that explodes in a fireball on impact, nullifying the range issue and giving them superior firepower. Edge: Soviet Union


 * Explosive Infantry: A rocket launcher had a longer range and greater anti-tank firepower than a hand grenade. Edge: Third Reich


 * Elite Infantry: The Soviet Shock Trooper's Tesla Cannon is an powerful weapon, however, it's effectiveness may be reduced by the fact that the Nazis wear backpacks that seem to contain devices to protect against electric weaponry, which may stop the Tesla Cannons as well. The German super soldiers are also more heavily armored and cybernetically augmented. Edge: Third Reich
