If they did a proper job with mining that dam, the blowing up is only a button-press away. No czhance to take them by surprise - if they are not totally incapable. I would assume they have not assigned new conscripts for that task, but something like spetznatz or other skilled, trained specialists. Not all Russian soldiers are idiots or poor village boys.


Its like me sitting in a room in the upper floor with the thumb on the light switch, troops in every room aroudn and below and patrols outside, and you being outside, wanting to get to me and saying Booh! before I can flip that switch.
