« on: January 26, 2011, 06:31:59 PM »
How can u say that Finland did nothing in ww2 and its useless to mod it to the Eastern Front.

Winter War: newbielink:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_War [nonactive]

Continuation War: newbielink:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuation_War [nonactive]

Finnish army was tiny but casualties of soviet union were huge. Over 300 000 dead or missing and over 500 000 wounded, injured and burned. Please add finnish call-in squad for nazi army. It could be reward squad.

Let me guess: it should be a late-game infantry, and a REALLY-REALLY bad-ass one, right?  ;D ;D ;D
BTW, where did anyone at all mentioned Finland lately?
Besides, finns, AFAIR, never fought alongside with germans (no need to use the term "nazi", unless in purely negative meaning, IMO).

Shouldn't this thread be in one of the Suggestions fora?
Anyway, I'm not per se against the inclusion of finnish troops, but why finnish troops and not Romanians?Or Italians?Or Hungarians? etc..
Perhaps it'd be better if there was just a generalistic call-in unit that said: Foreign Auxillaries or something like that to represent all of Germany's allies.

Nobody said finland didnt do anything in the war  ::) and are a useless addition. 

EasternFront's Ostheer faction is not gonna have a unit named after a specefic nation or group (finland & waffen ss ETC) theyre gonna use neutral names (Northern Voluenteers ETC) to minize the whine/rage from crazy ppl who want their suggestion or country implented. Among other reasons why this is the best solution, they can add units who goes under the same category without having to implent stuff like Romania, Hungary, Bulgaria, Finland bla bla bla seperately.

anyway that how its gonna be as far as i know, so your probaly not gonna see a specific Finland unit.

Hey, people, how come you're all saying cossacks did nothing during that war?
Let's implement several different types of 'em:
Don cossacks,
Ural Cossacks,
Siberia Cossacks,
What nut cossacks,
make 'em all call-in, maybe reward units, replacing, say, tanks?
eh? eh?  ;D ;D ;D

Ok, time to lock this... in the next time try this section:

Ostheer's Unit suggestion thread.
Mors Indecepta

Might controls everything, and without strength you cannot protect anything. Let alone yourself...
