Hey devs and designers! If you need any help with checking the spelling of the Finnish names etc, just add me and I'll do it for you.

Thank you!! I have been asking this for ever

Cool ! What about allied divisions ?

3 out of the 6 will be Allied ones: 2 Finnish & 1 German for the Axis, 3 Soviets for the Allies.

Thanks but what about American or English divisions in the future ? Can we play again with cromwell or M-18 And maybe the Tiger II (H turret) I love it !!!!

Announce it also on social media.

I honestly wish the divisions used less captured equipment, not more...

Courland would be cool indeed, but it wouldn't have provided a whole new Axis nation, with its specific equipment (even captured one).

Yassi-Kishinev with the Romanian forces confirmed? It fits into the summer 1944 timeline, it lasted for 10 days (If my memory serves me well) and there could be some new mechanics associated with water crossing (e.g. amphibious units for crossing the Dniester?)

Long time WG player here, played RUSE way back too. Barely touched SD1 and haven't yet really played SD2, but this DLC will definitely pull me into the game. Great stuff Eugen!

PS. Very nice to see Finland get some much needed attention! Considering her historical performance and impact, she is very underrepresented in the WW2 video game industry.

Do notice: this time, Finland isn't teamed with the USSR. ;)

Who do I have to shell to get my hands on the 7. Panzerdivision?

What special feature does it have?

Well, captured & non-standard equipment is what makes divisions different one from another.
We could make thousands of standard infantry divisions with just 9x StuG, or 5. Panzer without Tigers.

As answered before: there is no plan to bring more Western troops in this eastern front focused instalment.

I really do hope that those 2 Finnish groups are versatile and have unique units and strategies. Because naming dlc to Fate of Finland and giving only 2 groups to Finland is bit odd.

To be fair Finland's divisions probably didn't differ that much from each other, considering how infantry heavy the entire Army was at the time (as shown by there only being one Armored division) So having more than 1 Finnish infantry division probably wouldn't lead to much more variety in-game.
Although I am a bit surprised that the 122nd Infanterie is included in it's entirety. I know they sent a brigade of StuGs and air detachment Kuhlmey to assist but that's all they ever sent as far as I'm aware.

I do hope we get to see some love for indigenous Finnish aircraft for example. And aircraft in general, Finland fielded a pretty nice variety of stuff in 1944 that isn't in the game at this moment like the Brewster Buffalo or the Finnish-made VL Myrsky.

Indeed, aside from the Armored Division & Cavalry Brigade, the rest was mostly infantry divisions or brigades, plus maybe the coastal brigade (which was mostly artillery).

122. ID was sent too, and although it arrived a bit after Kuhlmey & the StuG brigade were engaged, they nonetheless entered the fight in the nick of time to relieve the pressure on the Finns.

Finnish Air Force ingame will feature the most diversified array of planes in any nation so far, I think, with planes from German, Soviet, French, American, British, Dutch and ... Finnish origins. ;)
