Saratov in Worldwar[]
Saratov was the target of a Race offensive in the summer of 1944. The Soviets destroyed the city and the Lizard army with an explosive-metal bomb. This incident contradicted the Race's intelligence that the USSR was not capable of developing their own atomic weapons[1] and prompted nuclear retaliation aimed at the city of Magnitogorsk.
