It also blows my mind that Russians would try a blitzkrieg during the Rasputitsa.

Biggest difference from today is the USSR had the Warsaw Pact, while today it's Russia alone. The economy of the USSR while no giant was better insulated from sanctions and other external pressure. Having watched the performance of the Soviets in Afghanistan, Chechnya, and Ukraine I don't think they have had any great military leadership since WW2. If the Russians were defending Russia instead of invading a peaceful neighbor (who much of the population actually likes) I'm sure you would see a better performance by the Russians. As to the modeling of the Mod. Campaign Games I think they are logistically accurate.
