00:01 - 00:05...And based on this Exel spreadsheet I found from the forum only the best MBTs and cheap stuff is viable. Medium tanks are currently overprized as H*ll.
00:05 - 00:07Currently virtually all Conquest games start with a Nato air assault towards key urban areas.
00:08 - 00:11These attacks consists of Tigers and Stinger/Mistral AA heloes escorting SAS or pulse rifle-armed Fallschirmjäger '90s.
00:12 - 00:17In this map Lima, Mike and Kilo are prone to be captured with this initial Nato land grab, unless someone plays Redfor and counters it with Chinese AA heloes.
00:18 - 00:21No worries, the upcoming Scandinavia/Warsaw Pact DLC shall fix these issues and finally include Finland to the game.
00:24 - 00:25Mein Führer...
00:28 - 00:29This DLC...
00:31 - 00:33The DLC shall not feature new nations, only a bunch of new units for existing ones.
00:33 - 00:36Just like in Airland Battle, Finland shall not be a playable nation in Red Dragon.
00:52 - 00:59I'm about to launch into a tirade here, so please leave the room now. Resident forum Finns may stay and listen if they want to.
01:13 - 01:15JO SE NYT ON PERKELE!!!!!
01:16 - 01:18A DLC ABOUT SCANDINAVIA AND PACT COUNTRIES WITHOUT FINLAND!
01:19 - 01:24NEW UNITS FOR BLOODY DENMARK, WHILE FINLAND REMAINS EXCLUDED?!
01:25 - 01:28THE SAME DENMARK THAT WAS OVERWHELMINGLY VOTED AS THE WORST NATION OF AIRLAND BATTLE?
01:28 - 01:31THE SAME DENMARK WHOSE ONLY USED UNIT VANISHED ENTIRELY FROM MIXED DECKS AFTER THE MILITIA NERF?
01:32 - 01:34SURE, IT MADE PERFECT SENSE TO INCLUDE THOSE HAPPY BEERGUZZLERS TO AIRLAND BATTLE - BUT NOT AT THE EXPENSE OF LEAVING FINLAND OUT!
01:35 - 01:38"PURELY DEFENSIVE, GUERRILLA-STYLE ARMY." "NO DEDICATED SELF-PROPELLED ARTILLERY UNITS WITHIN THE TIMEFRAME."
01:39 - 01:40AND THEN THEY GO AHEAD AND INCLUDED THE DERPY MILITIA HORDES OF DENMARK, A COUNTRY THAT DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A SPAAG SYSTEM?!
01:41 - 01:43Mein Führer, you can actually make a decent autocannon deck with Denmark, I can show you a replay wher...
01:44 - 01:46ANECDOTAL PUBSTOMP REPLAYS MY *SS! A FEW HINDS AND THE DANES ARE TOAST!
01:47 - 01:48Mein Führer, Finland wouldn't have that many new units either! And they'd be strictly neutr...!
01:49 - 01:53SO HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN SWEDEN THEN? WE ARE TALKING ABOUT AHISTORICAL WW3 SCENARIO HERE!
01:53 - 01:55BAD EXCUSES, ALL OF THEM!
01:56 - 02:03YEARS OF DEVELOPMENT AND EXTENSIVE BACKGROUND RESEARCH OF NORDIC MILITARY SITUATION IN 1980s!
02:04 - 02:07AND ALL THEY COME UP WITH IS A SINGLE POP-UP MESSAGE IN THE GRAND CAMPAIGN, IN A WW3 GAME TAKING PLACE IN NORDIC COUNTRIES?
02:08 - 02:12THEY PROMTLY DECIDED TO LEAVE OUT THE ONLY NORDIC COUNTRY THAT ACTUALLY FOUGHT IN THE PREVIOUS WORLD WAR WITHOUT BEING OVERRUN OR OCCUPIED.
02:13 - 02:15AND IN A WW3 SCENARIO IN NORDIC COUNTRIES THE SOVIETS SOMEHOW BYPASS AND OCCUPY FINLAND WITHOUT FIRING A SHOT BECAUSE OF FINLANDIZATION?
02:16 - 02:18IF POLITICS WERE SUCH A BIG DEAL THEY COULD HAVE MADE THEM A PACT COUNTRY, BUT NO.
02:19 - 02:23THEY EXCLUDED THE ARMY THAT WAS ULTIMATELY LUCKY AND TENACIOUS ENOUGH TO SAVE THEIR MISERABLE HOMELAND FROM THE MACHINATIONS OF STALIN!
02:26 - 02:30I never believed they'd really leave Finland out from Wargame for good.
02:31 - 02:36Back in ALB I was over-optimistic enough to believe that perhaps they'd make a third DLC, and finally make Finland part of WW3 in northern Europe.
02:41 - 02:42Perkele...
02:43 - 02:47SINCE YOU CAN'T MAKE A GAME ABOUT WW3 IN NORTHERN EUROPE WITHOUT FINLAND, NOW CAN YOU?
02:48 - 02:53I'VE BEEN GULLIBLE AND DELUSIONAL ENOUGH TO BUY THEIR HYPE FROM THE VERY BEGINNING!
02:54 - 02:56I doubt they'll ever seriously considered adding Finland to the game in the first place.
02:56 - 03:00And even if they once did, their marketing department had already set their eyes on Asian RTS markets.
03:01 - 03:03BECAUSE STARCRAFT IS THE BLOODY NATIONAL SPORT OF G*DDAMN SOUTH KOREA!
03:05 - 03:08There there...Battlefront has already promised to include Finland to the new Combat Mission.
03:14 - 03:18I have to admit that I have enjoyed those new missed unit-threads.
03:19 - 03:22Yet even the Danes have a virtual in-game faction of their own.
03:23 - 03:25Whereas for Finns, it remains a pipe dream.
03:26 - 03:27It's over.
03:31 - 03:35We shall never see Finland in official versions of Wargame.
03:40 - 03:43But gentlemen, if you believe that this is the end of it you're seriously mistaken.
03:44 - 03:50I'll keep playing this French boat game just for the the hell of it. And who knows, you may yet see Finland in Wargame after all.
03:53 - 03:56But for that to happen we'll have to hope for modding tools.
