Its probably WAY to much to ask for, but with Avalanche now gearing up to do The Second Great War Series for their naval games, it would be great to get a book supplement with counters for General Tuchashevsky's 1938 Invasion of Imperial German Poland and Austro-Hungarian Galicia. We could get a lot of 1930's vehicles and artillery pieces from historical Russia, Austria, Hungary, and Germany in Imperial Russian, German, and Austro-Hungarian colors. And plenty of Russian leaders because there were no purges. Tuchashevsky's officers were indoctrinated in "deep battle" doctrine and it would probably have been Imperial Russia that gave us the word for lightning war.
