Dust Tactics squads and hero packs are as low as $3 per box (up to 85% off MSRP) at Miniature Market through Monday 11/26/2018. They also have most of the "Operation" expansions (though sadly not Operation Cerberus), a few vehicles, and a bunch of the Premium prepainted figures, though not at the same deep discounting.
Note that all of the cheap ones are
unpainted but (I think) pre-primed.

Following are a few unfinished brainstorms I threw together, toying with ideas for some of the SSU units. I've started with the idea that Soviet military units would go to Einar, since that seems to be the natural home of the US's "frenemies," based on the British troops ending up there. Anyway, here are thoughts on two squads that could be made from the $3 Red Guards Anti-tank Squad box:
And a couple of starting ideas for the $3 SSU Hero Pack:
(Probably not every card in this faction should get the Coordinated Movement thing, but it's an interesting starting idea anyway.)
