Available on Gamersgate:
QuoteNew features include:

New Single-Player Campaign:  For the first time, play as the Soviet army and follow the global invasion from the perspective of the motherland. World in Conflict: Soviet Assault continues the franchise's tradition of gripping, Hollywood-quality voice-over performances, tense and emotional storylines and unbelievable, cinematic storytelling methods.
New Maps:  World in Conflict: Soviet Assault's award-winning multiplayer modes get more maps to facilitate the intense team-based battles.
Action-Focused Gameplay:  The game's unique design removes base- building, resource gathering and "tech trees" in favor of fast, hard- hitting combat that focuses on tactical decisions – much like an FPS – creating a new genre: Action-Strategy.
Player Roles:  Players chose to command units from Infantry, Armor, Support, or Air roles; multiplayer teams will need to master each role for maximum effectiveness.
Real World Super-Powered Warfare:  Unleash the authentic military arsenals of the great military superpowers, such as tanks, planes, trucks, troops and helicopters -- as well as nuclear weapons -- from the USA, Soviet Union and NATO.
Cutting-Edge Graphics:  The latest version of Massive's proprietary Masstech engine features advanced lighting and physics, utilizes the latest DX10 technology, and allows for full 360-degree camera control.
Complete Destructibility:  As the battle rages, the world environment pays the price as houses crumble, forests burn, terrain becomes deformed and the entire environment changes.

I have the original game, but never finished the campaign. :( I do have a strong NATO vs. WP itch to scratch, though. On the other hand, 20 EUR for this expension seems expensive. If you don't have the original game yet you can get a "Gold" ersion which has game plus add on for 30 EUR.  ::)

I do like the trailer for it on their main page, though:

Nice camera movement.  :D
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

Checking Amazon.de - they have the expansion for 13 EUR. I guess I'll check stores, and if someone has it for 10 I'll take it.

I did enjoy WiC, but multiplayer was ruined by assholes. And I had no time to join a clan. :(

Yes but I don't know how you feel about a French Version.

Also, it's on direct2drive.com for 29.95$
