So.. it's not even quad damage or anything, it's a health boost?
Rather elaborate way to announce it, not that I'm complaining.
Dude, there's like a giant paragraph on that page explaining exactly what the Sandvich does. It's an item that goes into one of three weapon slots. The heavy eats it and gains health.

I was... surprised by the naming of the Heavy achievements (Soviet-related stuff), since the Heavy always seemed more Slavic than Russian to me.
Forgive my ignorance, but aren't Russians Slavic as well?

I'm not sure what you're getting at, since that link appears to back me up.

Slavic peoples are classified into West Slavic (including Czechs, Poles, Slovaks and Sorbs), East Slavic (including Belarusians,
Russians, and Ukrainians), and South Slavic (including Bosniaks, Croats, Macedonians, Montenegrins, Serbs and Slovenes). For a more comprehensive list, see Ethno-cultural subdivisions. Bulgarians are not slavic peoples

That's kind of like saying "I was...surprised that they named that plumber guy "Mario". He always seemed more Mediterranean than Italian to me." ;)

I wasn't getting at anything, I was providing a Wiki resource for the point of discussion that anyone can read.

Okay, yes, bad choice of word. The Heavy seemed to me to be one of the East European ethnic groups, and Russian is a little odd.

I think you've messed up again, catbarf, because I'm sure Russians are considered an Eastern European ethnic group.

Really? I always thought there was a distinction.
Ahem.
THE HEAVY DOESN'T FUCKING SOUND RUSSIAN.
Okay, I think I've made my point.
