Stalin actually did kill A LOT of his military leadership.
Correct! During the 1930s, Stalin organized mass purges in the army and reformed it.

Human waves of troops and Equipment victories do not equal "best" just victories
It is a tactic called Deep Operations that the Soviets developed over 20 years, there is more to it than "human waves".

The soviets and Germans had the most reliable equipment I will admit.. a lot of the soviet stuff could take a fair battering there weapons etc..

The Soviet Union possessed great soldiers and industry capacity. The Germans possessed some strengths of industry (For example in Belgium) but not many soldiers.

I know..... Do you not know what a Katyusha is? Besides, the Soviets did use a lot of incredibly, and surprisingly, effect AT rifles. A lot of German tanks had truly terrible armour.

Correct! The Germans surrendered easily after a major attack of this weapon.

Good, it sounded like you thought it was an AT weapon.
