For vehicles start with the ubiquous T-34, also look at major tanks like the KV-1, BT-7, IS-2, T-26.

For battles, try Siege of Leningrad, Battle of Stalingrad, Battle for Moscow, Operation Bagrateon, Battle of Berlin.

hey I was thinking about getting that game, i have cod4 modern warfare right now. Anayway I was wondering what were the playable teams. The Japs, Germans, US, Brits, and Russians? Oh I was also wondering if it was all set in the pacific or if some of it took place in europe.
