[edit] Personality
An overly casual, yet reliable commander, Oleg Vodnik is known in the Soviet Army as one of the few commanders to rise through ranks from private to a general due to him cheating death on a constant basis on the battlefield. Due to his origins, he has great respect for the lower ranks of the Soviet army. He takes a particular liking to the heavy armor units of the Soviet Union, thus favoring tanks and similar units. Vodnik is extremely respectful towards the Soviet Commander. He treats him as a friend, partner in crime, equal and even holds as a reknown superior officer. This Russian Commander is loyal and fierce.
[edit] Role in the War
He is a long-time friend of a little-known but highly successful Soviet commander, and often accompanied him in battle. They fought together in the Soviet Campaign defending Leningrad from Kenji's battleships, and again against Commander Lissette in Geneva, and once more against Commander Giles and the "traitor" Soviet General Krukov in Iceland. The Tank Commander is very satisfied to fight alongside his russian brother in arms.
In the Imperial Campaign he was in charge of the (futile) defense of Vorkuta on the day of the Imperial invasion.
In the Allied Campaign, he was in charge of the defense of Heidelberg, where a major Soviet military base was situated. Later, he was in charge of launching Kirov Airships from modified Sport Arenas in Havana to attack US cities. In both cases he was defeated by the Commander.
[edit] Tactics
| “ | You are like an annoying house fly. Buzz buzz buzz buzz smack! It's time to swat the fly. - Oleg getting annoyed by the Allies destroying his tanks and Kirovs. | ” |
Oleg's strategies are somewhat simple-minded, yet effective. He prefers massing tanks to crush the enemy on the ground while placing less emphasis on air and naval units. Allied commanders unfortunate enough to encounter him reported being attacked by waves of tanks (including the feared Apocalypse), Kirovs and Stingrays.
[edit] Behind the Scenes
He is portrayed by Dimitri Diatchenko.
