This modification will add Finnish faction to Men of War Assault Squad 1 & 2 along with multiple campaigns for the Finnish side. The campaigns will be based on Winter war's last battles, Continuation war's "attack phase", advance along Kirov-railway in 1941 and 1942, defensive battles of 1944 and Lapland war. Each faction will be unique and player has to adapt his play-style to use advantages and disadvantages to defeat their enemies. German faction has most elite infantry formations, but they lack heavier tanks and heavy artillery. Russians are well armed, have heavy-armor support, have more infantry, but their infantry aren't as well trained and experienced as Finnish and German counterparts. Finnish faction will be "in-between" the Germans and USSR, having enough equipment for attacks & defending areas. Shortcomings of the Finnish faction is lack of mobility and the tank costs.

Description

I'm continuing adding some unit varieties in the modification for the campaign purposes.

The first one from the left is a Border-Jaeger from the 4th Border Jaeger Battalion. These units were highly motivated and were formed with Border Guard cadre as base. The units were used as light infantry which was capable fighting in remote wilderness and showed capability in heavy battles during summer 1944. The insignia of 4th Border Jaeger battalion is orange stripe in the left sleeve.

The second from the left is from detachment named "Osasto Törni", it was a company sized special operations force which operated under command of Lauri Törni. Although the unit officially was named Jaeger company it's role resembled more of the Finnish "sissi" units (Finnish word for Guerilla, more fitting translation for the role is Ranger).

The last two are from the Armored Division which was the only official mechanized force in the army. It operated under command of Major General Ruben Lagus during the war. The insignia of the division was the only unit insignia authorized by the main headquarters.
