Using RGOs that allow random, multiple skins in a single unit like the ones by Slay could solve that issue.

I don't think the all round foreign infantry should be included. Its already complicate the matter of reinforcing random infantry back in Hq. I think two squad of infantry with different nationality should be included. Remember, it must play a major role in the Eastern front. I wish you guys would not be overzeolots of your nation. I'm a Malaysia but its insane to put Malaysia infantry into Ostheer anyway. I more supportive to the Finnish and Romanians since both contribute in the Eastrn Front troops per nation ratio. And the fact they got the highest votes.

I suggest each infantry played a different role, one as a supportive infantry, one as an assault infantry or pioneers/engineers. Or both available as different docterine battlegroups.

I still think we should say "Finnsh troops" Or Hungarian Gun support. If some people don't like it, they can just complain else where. The Devs aren't making this mod to please them.
The Russians think there sooo tough, wait till the Ostheer comes...

Yea, Alot of people underestimate the Finns. They were one of the strongest troops in ww2 if you ask me, most people think its on of those stuiped useless foreign countys that just keep losing. They were acutally Winning.
Yeah they were pretty badass until they surrendered and stabbed us (Germany) in the back.

If they make a Finnish squad in Ostheer, it should be light anti-infantry/recon unit. They would be armed with Kar98k's. But seriously I don't care about which nation(s) foreign squads present.

Paciat I think that we finns are a little bit underestimadet for our actions in Winter War and Continuation War. We had some major defensive victories over Soviets. But yes, in theory we lost both wars but they both were great moral victories over USSR.

C'mon, forgive and forget already. Its not like Finnish betrayed Germany in the beginning, Finish also dosn't wish to ended up like Poalnd and Berlin, a nation being burn to the ground.

The reason that most of choose Finnish is that Finnish fought bravely against the Soviet and actually won the winter war without critical military aid. They are the guys everyone admire and wanted to see them relive and fight in the game just as they fought the winter war.

Yeah, Hungarians do more support than the Finnish so their existence in the army is more of the practicality rather than an inspiration. Finnish troops defeat on the Soviet in the Winter War maybe the big morale boost & inspiration of Germany that they could defeat the Russia. And surely most germans wanted to get to know a nation that beaten a giant once thought unstoppable. Finnish maybe serve as an insparation troops for ostheer to fight on.

Stop this nonsense. Other similar threads have been closed because of this behavior.

The only reason Finland surrendered was because since Germany was falling back they had to or it would be alot worst, so its Germany's fault. But anyway not to go off topic the Finnish  help alot in WW2 and was not such a "loser" country so I think they should be included.

I was suggesting that the Finnish could be an inspiration assault infantry, lack of any specialised abilities or powerful weapons but have an inspire aura for the Ostheer, for balance reason the aura will not stack upon each other. And the Finnish could have camoflage ability, good for hiding but will auto disabled the aura as it can't be 'seen' by freindlie. The camo should not give  alot of benefit since they only use normal weapon and the only advantage they get is moving undetected(detected if an infantry is close) and get a first shot chance.

They should have a ability called Ambush! which makes there first shoot out of camo instantly kill 1 soldier from the enemy squad and suppresses all the squad for a few secs. This will make the unit very useful.

Hmmm, as the soviets don't have any foreign named troops, like Ukrainian support, or something like that, I think Ostheer wont be getting any foreign troops. Like Mother Russia, the Ostheer represent the regular German army.

The Ukraine was part of the USSR, so troops fro there were put in the rest of the Red Army.
Germany's case was different, allies sent their troops to fight with the Germans on the Eastern Front.
