Disappointing, a portrait should always feature a representative connected to the pre-order teams, otherwise it should at least have a minimum of popularity among WWII enthusiasts. If they don’t have time to create an interesting portrait, they should use famous personalities like Vasily Zaitsev or Simo Häyhä, which is much more inspiring for players! The nickname decorator matches the pre-order standards and is neutral for any faction, but it could have a different look that doesn’t resemble Hot Wheels car designs! I’ll buy the team I like best in a few months!

I can see how to an engineer this makes perfect sense, but most casuals and even veterans, dont notice this at all because at the end of the day numbers are INTERCHANGABLE in human minds.
Use letters, colors, Or anything else other than numbers 
I suggets Unicode: U+00034 for Tier 4. 
Get rid of this system, just stick to BRs, thats what actually matters.
Okay, I think the players upstairs have been complaining, but they seem unwilling to spend a single penny. If the Finnish faction is truly needed, the entire development team would have to be reinvested, which is simply impossible in the short term. Normal development and operation of a game require a significant investment of funds and time. So, if you support the developers, please spend money only if your financial situation allows. As for those who say the flamethrower is weak and refuse to buy it, I want to say that the newly released premium squad includes a combination of a flamethrower and primary weapon, plus special clothing and a spare weapon slot. This is the only combination that utilizes a secondary weapon to enhance the primary weapon’s effect, making it a top-tier, super-powerful setup. If anyone wants to cause trouble without spending money, please go back to War Thunder. This is a WWII historical game, not a WWII-themed吐槽大会 (a platform for complaining about WWII).

To be fair how many people really get excited about over priced squads in a game when you literally have 100’s of them? You know what they get excited about >EVENTS< Ohh joy a 30$ us squad! I can’t wait said no one. If this is the only business model supporting the game the won’t last. I pay for the premium and battlepass and feel they are worth the expense since this is a “free” game. But slapping a skin and retread squads just do not do it for me.

As much as I think the German Suomi KP/31 with the flamer would be kind of cool, I am OVER SATURATED with BR5 German squads as it is, so, unless Gaijin is going to start unlocking the weapons on their premium squads, it makes no sense for me to invest on more premium squads I can’t really use

Because Tier is the section and not the Battle Rating, that’s why if you paid attention the Roman Numerals have BR next to it like BRV. When people say “it’s tier V” it causes unnecessary confusion.
“Chindit” portrait is a complete mismatch for this bundle.

"Chindit” portrait SUCKS-- I wish they had portrait of that cool German helmet with flamethrower visor.

I totally agree, if they had included something this impactful I would have bought this package without thinking twice! Ultimately, to convince the buyer to take both teams, you need to offer an incentive worthy of the investment; otherwise, they’ll only buy the team they like best!

The USSR one seems more useful because it’s not locked to being BR5

Before they buff the flamethrower squad, any flamethrower unit is basically useless.
At its core, it just has a few more flamethrower troops than the regular tech-tree silver flamethrower squad, but it doesn’t fix the core problem—they get picked off instantly as soon as they peek out.
Honestly, if you take away their flamethrowers, they’re just big medics with extra HP. And they only have six men anyway.

Low key the Soviet one is prob stronger.
Remember the Flamer is Flamer 1 BR3, so the Suomis secondary firepower is leaning more as a SMG with weaker secondary flame option. Its still solid however.
I wonder if the weapon comes as the primary slot or secondary. Small chance of being able to equip dual flamethrower if its primary??

I have a theory.
These premiums weren’t for this update.
They saw the huge community backlash over saboteurs and sent potential premium saboteurs back because selling them would have permanently locked saboteurs into their current state, without the possibility of major changes (and in that case, you paid for something that’s no longer the product you purchased, and I’m not sure how legal that is). But they still had to sell something because it’s a “”“”““major update.””“”“”
That explains why these flamethrower squads seem so out of place with the rest of the update’s theme and the profile, which has nothing to do with flamethrowers.

Finland had some dudes on skies and never could decide who to fight. Mainly defense in WWII and then fought Russia, then with Germany, then against Germany.
Did this helmet exist in WW2?
This ‘plexiglass’ material looks very modern.
Is there any evidence this is real?
