a personal pitch from me if not already done - please restrict female characters to civilian life only. it didn't make sense IC to have mixed soviet regiments with males and females together. yes, women served in the soviet armed forces/red army but in their own divisions i.e the night witches and more commonly known sniper companies

the OOC aspect of 'cutie' femchars all trained in taekwondo while having the physique of a stick insect was irritating, tacky, and released metaphorical toxins into the wartime atmosphere

I think you are talking about nato and nato players going into the Soviet faction, mate.

As a wise man once said.

Sex complicates things.

the issue still lingered like a bad smell in the soviet faction but was wafted out to a degree thanks to most of the hierarchy expressing their disdain

females soldiers are a thing tho

The only combat roles which women could get into were snipers and pilots (Which mesa said), also he forgot one factor; Combat Medical technicians.

female infantry or medics I wouldn't mind so long as their characters aren't in hormonal overdrive constantly or put too much emphasis on their gender - highlighting it at every opportunity they get

 

[cns - he/him/his]

i mean if there was a realistic place for them to be its right here, nowhere near the proper fighting
end of the day if soviets are application based then they can be vetted

 

[aperson]

if soviet troops are vetted female chars will probs be alright
i can understand the disdain for them due to their past history in ww3rp but from a lore standpoint it would be somewhat make sense (as were not on the front lines and instead i assume just home guard type soldiers)

5'2 | Thin | Attractive looking | Full NJSOC uniform | Blue eyes | Black hair tied back in a ponytail | American accent

5'1 | Well built | Attractive | Spetznaz uniform and sunglasses | Brown eyes | short brown hair | Russian accent

We'll miss out on SUCH good RP from these types of people that can easily CQC a 6'1 Engineer that probably has a massive size advantage.

the curse of bad femchars

 

[Roosebud]

I'm not a big fan of outright banning female characters due to a number of reasons;

A) A very large portion of players enjoy playing them
B) There's multiple ways to deal with unrealistic characters other than outright enforcing a global ban, seeing as some players can play them realistically
C) A lot of the issues that plague the stereotypical female characters also apply to the male ones, except the females are often sexualised and memed about more

We have this discussion every time, I don't see how a complete ban would make anything more enjoyable or better when it's down to a specific group of players, some of which would just make another generic superman soldier with the same stereotypical behaviour

I see you saved Kai’s description for Prazak

 

[Oswinner]

Though it would make sense having females in combat med tech, administrative, general's adjuntant corps, pilots and such; This concept doesn't matter because the lore itself is rather preposterous to begin with and keeping it all realistic would just retreat on itself. Though there are mingey and cringey femchars, I don't think it's fair to stop femchar soviets just because of a handful of horny teenagers ruining it for those who can roleplay properly and restrict fredom of character (in a reasonable and realistic sense of freedom of character).

An actual solution would probably be stricter enforcement for height and weight, maybe a 5'8 height limit to prevent the super short uwu femchars that would be discharged due to how short they are, and probably frame limits so they're not 120 lbs and thin as a stick. And probably stricter uniform standards such as certain hairstyles, along with stuff about personal behavior and fraternization so you can prevent Lieutenants from climbing all up and down enlisted and other officers dicks, or excusing their shitty whiny behavior and how they threaten to shoot people with 'that's just my characters personality, deal with it.'

Ah, I remember Prazak...

Should of put her in the fukkin gulag along with Pupienescu.

 

[cns - he/him/his]

with soviets being application only it'd be easy to enforce quality

 

[Oswinner]

5'8 is rather an unrealistic height for a soviet female because of the different cultures, genetics and diet within the USSR (which was rather poor).
It should be having a height limit of approx:
6'0 max.
5'3 min.

 

[cns - he/him/his]

its a complete non-issue honestly
