It plays to Enemy at the Gates style misconceptions, like one of the missions in Stalingrad where the company takes its own initiative to repel a German assault and rescue their officer (the main character) and then the commissar executes one of the soldiers for this. It's like the campaign was far too focused on making the Soviets look like the bad guys, when they're the protagonists of the game. There's a ton of inaccuracies and outright fabrications that I can understand why the Russians and former Soviet republics had an uproar about that campaign. I've read Grossman's writings from the war and to say COH2's campaign was 'inspired' by it I feel is misleading.
