Standard bearers?
Standard bearers?
Will there be standards on the Soviet side?
A Soviet flag, supplied by the organizers, or personally. To inspire the russian infantry when they charge! Anyone can pick one up and carry it, but you may only use their sidearm when holding it.
Even tough a standard bearer would be totally obsolete in the battefield during the 90's, Berget 5 is set in another "dimension", so a standard bearer could have survived.
I think it would be a very nice addtion, just not for the dramatic effects, but also practical, for example to inform the commanding officer when an attack is a succes. E.g when a building has been stormed and the Soviet flag is seen on the roof

Flags would be a nice thing, yes. But I would say that it's not realy useful to inform the CO that a building has been stormed. First of all, the CO just might not be within visual range. Secondly, I don't want to go up on the roof of a building unless the other buildings are taken too (especially not with a huge red marker saying "SHOOT HERE". ;p ). And thirdly, if the CO is going to be informed that a building is taken I'll rather use a radio than a flag.
So. I'd love to see a flag used to show "this base/building/whatever now belongs to the russians" so that the pesky allied forces will know. But I don't believe in it as a signaling device in a strategic manner.
So lets put some flags over those buildings people!!!

All smartasses huh? Thing is we beat them in armwrestling 3:1 and while we were afk with Bravo Coy they nicked our flag off our HQ door... while the guard on post was puking in the toilet
Stil, had a good time, but like I said... Vader, get me the flag back or else...
How do I know it was Russians? They tried to pull off Latvian flag aswel (seen them do it) but Latvians know better and taped it to the door really hard hehe.
Drinking contest... there was one? I think russians won already when they arrived, hehe. No normal person can drink that much
