1.1 Overview
The USSR player can award Guards status to units that distinguished themselves in battle to boost moral and create elite units. Over 120 infantry divisions alone were given Guards status during the war.
Guards units were given better and more weapons, ammunition and vehicles than regular divisions. Guards divisions were sometimes reformed for various reasons. Some Guards units knew multiple formations during the war. These promotion rules replace the Soviet Union’s Guards Infantry rules on the Soviet Union’s National Reference Sheet in the Global War 1936 rules.
