This mod changes pretty much of everything about models/AIs in the Russian campaign, especially for Axis side. (similar with the Fall of Berlin mod) But now it's combining between Luftwaffe (Air Force), Heer (Army) and a few Volksstrum (Home guard).
Due to the historical facts and related information that the 9th Fallschirmjager Division - some paratroopers veteran mixed up with so many of Luftwaffe cadets/trainees, most of which have no combat experiences at all, were defending the northern/north-eastern areas (possibly including the Pankow borough as well) of Berlin during the battle.
But I believe there should be more than just paratroopers and Luftwaffe personnel units that were defending those areas, so I've included Heer units (based on those from 18th Panzergrenadiers Div., 20th Motorised Div., and Munchenberg Panzer Div.) and few Volksstrum men to join the battle also.
This mod has a similar changing and replacement stuff with the Fall of Berlin mod, so I'll just list what is really important in this article.
1. Increase and change model variations on both side
2. Few gores on German units and 30%-60% gore on Soviets
3. Increase weapon variations on both sides (Kar98k will still be a common firearm for Axis forces)
4. Exclusive firearms like FG42 on Luftwaffe units only
You can play this mod on every mission for the Russian campaign if you want. But for a more authentic experience, we'd suggest you play it only on the RING OF STEEL mission.
In conclusion:
American-Japanese mission = Pacific Theater mod
Vendetta mission = Vendetta: Darkest Days mod
Ring of Steel mission = Either this mod (Ring of Steel: Abandon all hope) or Fall of Berlin mod
The rest of Soviet vs Axis mission = Fall of Berlin mod

And remember, we'd recommend you to play this on NON-STEAM version. Well, you can try on your own version if you like, but make sure that you have already backed up your own save game/Multiplayer file just for precaution.
Enjoy!
