PANSSARIDIVISIOONA! Steel Division 2 Battlegroup Preview (The Fate of Finland DLC) 

10:05 That stug tank leader skin is the same paint job as the Finnish stug at the Tank museum Bovington.

The B-239E Brewster is actually a variant of the F2A US naval plane, but the Fins removed the hook and were quite satisfied with it, especially against Laggs during early war.

Some unit names are bit weirdly translated and there would have been better names in Finnish to use. Most names are fine of course. Here are some translations from Finnish - straight to English - to proper English: Tarkka-ampuja = accurate shooter = sharpshooter Tiedustelu = recon Jääkäri = jäger (German for hunter) Kivääri = rifle Lähitorjunta = close intercept = close range anti-tank ? KPääl = komppanian päällikkö = company commander Nostoväki = drafted population (reserves) Syöksypioneeri = lunge pioneer = assault engineer Sotka = scaup (name for T-34) Sturmi = name bended from Stug Nelonen = number four (name for Pz IV) Huolto = maintenance KRH = kranaatinheitin = grenade thrower = mortar KK = konekivääri = machine rifle = machine gun Pikku-Sotka = little scaup PKom = pataljoonan komentaja = batallion commander Lahti = bay (surname of the weapon maker Aimo Lahti) Tankintorjunta = tank intercept = anti-tank PSTK = panssarintorjuntakanuuna = anti-tank cannon ITK = ilmatorjuntakanuuna = anti-air cannon H = haupitsi = howitzer Tulenjohtaja = fire leader = forward observer Pattr. Kom = Patterin komentaja = battery commander "Illu" = nickname for fighter ace Ilmari Juutilainen

Oh look! Another language Vulkan will have to learn how to pronounce

The Landsverk Anti 2 is an early Swedish export SPAAG afaik. Landsverk AB, a company that was still active until 1992. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AB_Landsverk

the Finnish T-26E is in fact a export Vickers 6-ton tank bought from the english and homemade modified with 45mm guns captured from the russians, i think that's the story, really weird though

Those Jääkäri squads are insane imo. Three great SMGs and six semi-automatic rifles AND a panzerfister? Sign me up. It'll be interesting having to deal with Russian T-34/85s at anything beyond point blank range with this division though...

PANSSARIHONOR!!! Lagus arrows spotted!! Happy to carry those in my sevice uniform.

Sturmi wooden loggs aint only looking cool, they also have 10mm more side armor than normal stugs for the same prize!

Funny, they have the wrong KV-1. Finland only ever captured two, a model 1942 with the round turret, and a KV-1E, no KV-1S.

Meillä ei säikytä, meillä ei surra - *Iske ja murra!*

Who else hears sakkijarven polkka while looking at the support tab.

Can't wait for Fingolia Rising 2.0

@VulcanHDGaming Hey, I watched your interview video recently and I would have more questions for the devs (but its to late?) 1. Will there maybe in the future a deck time restriction? Like 1941 or so? 2. Could there be in the future a North Africa DLC? And also a request for you: I dont get it so far in detail with all the radios. How is it working exactly? I mean, we have radios on some tank hunter vehicles, arty spotter, arty, recon vehicles and even planes. How to use it to the best in a match? Greetings

small note: the T-38M2 recon tank is also amphibious

they need an auto smoke feature for infantry units- allow youre command squads, especially, to popsmoke and fall back if they take a certain amount of suppression...

Difference between T-26E and T-26B. E variant has Vickers 6 Ton tank hull and T-26 Turret. while B variant is all T-26, which is originally based on Vickers 6 Ton tank. until soviets modifield desing.

Might want to check google translate to help with pronouncing the Finnish name, it actually gets them pretty well. A for the effort though ;)

7:45 T-26E has higher fire rate (12 r/min) than T-26B (10 r/min)

the BT-76 needs the ranged shortened otherwise its complete OP. Also not seeing a turret traverse stat on these cards?

The Finnish stugs look identical to the one from the Bovington tank museum, bring up a pic of it I bet they used it as the model

you say that the t-26 recon variant is new to the game. this is wrong. 78th sturm already has a beute recon t-26 in it,s recon tab. and that division was introduced already in the Beta.

Can you maybe play a small game (maybe even pve to show it better) to show these battle groups in action (i for example struggle to understand the idea of that many t-26)

The Fins used German Stugs or Sturmi & Alot of Captured or Repaired & Re-used Russian Tanks of Various Variations. epscially around I think 1942-44 they were being Stocked up on German Pack Guns, Pansarfaust/Pansarbasooka, but used their own/Russian rifles/submachinguns so on, the Ammountion for most Finnish Guns at the time, worked well will Russian ^^ I think. one cool feature the Finns Used German Arty 15 cm guns up until 1980s.

_ANOTHER!_

Ism't that Sturmi also in Red Dragon? That 15 points one?

Do you want some help with the pronunciation? I'm fluent in it

Hm, Finland gets the T-26 B I wonder what that is going to mean ^^

6:04 how did Finland get there hands on French FM24/29 Lmg's? They never bought them for France because they got there own machine gun design the LS26 and i dont think France supplied then Those guns during the winter war. So i guess they got them form Germany after the fall of France.

Tre jolie.

That blue cross always reminds me how bad I really am at this game.

Remarkable. I have never heard anyone pronounce "tiedustelu" in English.

Next, Steel Division should have the Jassy-kishenev offensive for Romanian units, Okinawa or Burma for Japanese units, and some trowbacks to 1943 to involve the Italians. So peopel can have a proper wargame world war 2.

18:23 My Fathers uncle owns 2 of those Latil's. They are really rare. You can find more info at Latiltrucks.net

4:45 That's pretty weak for a big arse 20x138mm round... I mean just look at 14.5mm fortified with Stalinium. Consider the dual wielding french sapper with semi autos and more men this is also not that good value either.

PPS-43 "Light machinegun" "7'62mm" Hol up..

Can someone write how to spell Finnish?

how many fucking elminate weapon finnish guy:yes

pattr. kom.=patterin komentaja (artillery battery commander)

YEES FINLAND FOR LIFE *FINALLY* The one German ally that kicked Soviet ass on their own big time

To help you with finnish pronounciation, firstof all: Roll your R's.

Finland did not have so much equipment of Soviet origin as to make up forces worthy of any note. Especially not T-28 or KV-1.

Talking about your Finnish pronounciation and you get the English name wrong :D Blenhiem is pronounced Bleh-num

its shame that Steel Division 2 is primarly about the Russians, the Missions or so, very little is focus on Germans or the Finish, you can play as the factions obviusly, but its still not good enough, great game even so.

Nice video man! Would you like to be RU-vid friends? :]

filnland got like 13 tanks in real life...this game is unrealistic af.
