Finland and Japan Confirmed?

What? Are you really going to act like the Americans and British weren’t fighting in Europe and Africa from 1942 and 1939? What in the world are you saying?

Russians bought 290-300,000 Winchesters vs over 600,000 Arisaka’s - (some sources say 763,000) the numbers are in the same order of magnitude, but still significantly different!

The reason the Federov automatic rifle was in 6.5mm was due to the availability of the ammo :slight_smile:

the normandy campaign sucks and I cant see a market garden campaign being any better

battle of the bulge? okay maybe

what else is there?

Japan opens up massive new fronts and different content.

Britain:
1939 Saar Offensive
1940 Norwegian Campaign
1940 Dunkerque
1940-43: North Africa
1943-44: Italy
1944: France
1945: Germany

America:
1942-43: North Africa
1943-44: Italy
1944: France
1945: Germany

Not to mention each of these “campaigns” are just locations and can typically be broken down into several different battles if they so choose. And this is just between Britain and America.

A lot that you don’t know about apparently

The issue isn’t that America and Britain wouldn’t have enough content. Its that it would always be against Germany or in some cases Italy. Making it a drain on the Axis not the allies

Yup. South Italy would work quite well using the gear we already have. Bulge would also work quite well, and ofc Stalingrad and Tunisia are gonna be a thing.

i did some research on british battles of ww2 and most of the purely british campaigns were either in africa or the other side of the planet.

Everything else is them just supporting the push into germany

Ah yes an army of hundreds of thousands of men with their own battle zone is just a “supporting force”. Now I’m starting to see why people always shit talk Americans for acting like they won WW2 for the allies.

What id love to see for campaigns would be El Almegne (basically gonna be here soon), Italy, Stalingrad, bulge, and other things in Japan, but a winter war front would be REALLY cool too! But I don’t think that would happen.

Well I have been wrong before, but I hope I am right about this. We will see! Cheers EE

They had plans to add Pacific theater since the first announcement four (five?) years ago. Obviously. How long it will take them and whether or not the game will survive long enough is a different question. As for “Winter War”, I don’t think it’s all that likely and I don’t think it’s a hint (let alone confirmation). To me it looks like a hint that this slight nod (it’s just a reskinned Mosin, calm down) towards Fins is all we’ll get.

When will we get the Kiska Island campaign as a free for all?

I mean, we already have the MAS-36, doesn’t mean we will have a Campaign in France…
They develop these rifles and other stuff to include more diversity into weapons and vehicles

We already have files for weapons such as Suomi Kp 31 and Lahti-Saloranta m26 which were made in Finland and as far as I know only used by finns. Also files of Dornier Do17 which was used by finnish airforce as a bomber and now m28 “pystykorva” rifle. As a Fin i would like to see winter/continuation war campaign but i keep my hopes low. Still wondering why the devs would invest so much in finnish wartime gear if they are not planning finnish campaign.

The Suomi was used by Russian forces in small numbers. The Do 17 is a German bomber. And the M28 is being used by Germany. Like I said earlier, its possible but by no means a guarantee

I am going to go a head and tell you we will have a French faction. One all the weapons of French origin, two all the historical maps they can used, three and the most important they already have all the tank and airplane models for France to use from WT.

That could be really interesting, but like the Finnish or Japanese campaigns, it may be implemented but it is only possible for the moment to make theories. I would love to see these campaigns because they change from the usual Stalingrad, Normandy or others but even if they come to be implemented it will only be the case in years…
The mere appearance of a few weapons are rather meagre clues, that was the point I was trying to make

This is true it as all predictions for sure. Just a fun brain storm of us as gamers.

In time I think we will see some pacific campaigns … Maybe early pacific Solomon Islands With US Marines vs Japan… Or New Guinea with the Britts and Aussie’s

And or a later war pacific campaign with Marshall / Marians Islands and Philipines

How soon this will happen ??? Years …
