In my campaign as the PC party travelled west through Poland to get to Bremerhaven for Op Omega they encountered several stand-offs and even battles between Soviet units who had been grabbed by the KGB and the GRU. The tensions between the two services finally got too much. Different KGB and GRU commanders had varying agendas but broadly speaking the GRU wanted to keep prosecuting the war against NATO and the KGB wanted to consolidate Soviet forces in preparation for putting down rebellions in WarPac and western Soviet territories. Of course most Soviet units were not controlled by either the KGB or the GRU and their commanders also had a variety of agendas. Some kept following their last orders or sought orders from higher command, others settled down in more or les permanent cantonments, still others went completely rogue and started marauding or carving out feudal satrapies.
