Yes it sounds pretty good now but was there really a battleship there? Perhaps the Gnevny destroyer would be better

Forts used in the defense of Sevastopol.

A famous landmark in Sevastopol harbor (probably unnecessary, but it would look nice).

According to what I have read, there was a Soviet battleship (Parishskaya Kommuna) moored in the harbor which the Germans were unable to sink. They did sink a destroyer and badly damage a cruiser with air attacks, though. http://www.wargame.ch/iwc/scen/fanzi...99/art3_gb.htm (5th paragraph).

Considering a Soviet destroyer has already been designed by the dev team, I don't see anything wrong with them using it instead of making a whole new Soviet battleship (it really would be too big anyways).

It wasn't only marines fighting on the Soviet side, but it would be cool to see a new marine skin for some of the classes. Maybe a few marine pick-up kits could be added and placed near the harbor. These kits could give the wearer a new skin and an SVT-40 semi-automatic rifle for a main weapon (like in the model picture in my first post).

But it would be too complicated yet for just one map, the devs need to model a russian battleship (only for this map), heavy/heaviest german Arty (some may be reused) new weapons (could be reused) and a new russian marine skin (could most likely not be reused).....thats IMO too much stuff for one map atm, maybe in further versions

The current Soviet destroyer they have would be fine and I don't think there's a need for any new weapons.
