Re: Where are default Country Training/Morale poin
 
Just a little trivia:

In the continuation war 1941-1944 there were about 1600 Swedish volunteers most of whom were engaged in secondary guard duties and not all 1600 served at the same time in Finland. In addition during the summer battles of 1944 only 60 Swedish volunteers were still in Finland. Average service for Swedes were 3 to 6 months. Now Finnish forces at their height in the summer of 1944 was about 450 000 men strong thats 16% of the population of 3 million of the country in 1944. On a side note there were also 3400 Estonian volunteers in Finland.

Also 8402 Swedish volunteers fought in the Winterwar 1939-1940 in the Svenska Frivilligkåren Corps.

The help Sweden gave to Finland in both wars is greatly apriciated, but Swedens direct military actions were wery small.

Well I found a morale table by year. It's an old chart but it should be at least a basis of judging morale and experience:

You have to scroll all the way down to the bottom http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

The "Illustrated Strategy & Tactics Primer" , where that experience and moral table comes from, is for SP1 which, is now eleven years old and the rest of the site is dedicated to SPWaW and neither has anything whatsoever to do with WinSPWW2. They are vaguely related like second and third cousins. It makes interesting reading and some of the advice in the primer applies to all SP games but don't expect that E&M chart to match the numbers we use in this game.

Hardly Nuked bro...you should see him when he really gets pissed off http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

I must say, you are very quick to post your thoughts...and thus you expose your lack of experience with this game.
It's all good though, it makes for entertaining reading eh.

I only "exposed" the truth which I wasn't hiding from view in the first place.

I do keep an eye on entertainment value while posting so glad you enjoyed http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

I can't refrain from telling everyone that the owner of that site lives across the street from the playground where I lost my two front teeth as a kid.

Trivia Terror Two:
The Volunteer company was down to 52 men before Tali-Ihantala and ended their guard duty in that area with 24 men standing.


So I agree that they where rather insignificant in the big picture.
The best book on the subject of Swedish voluteers in the continuation war translates to "Small piece in big game"
