Looks very nice

Minor thing: shouldn't it be "Karelischer" on the page showing the campaign path?

You are absolutely right. We will change that.

I am really looking forward to this mod. It has so much potential in itself and also to be utilized in PzC Russian scenarios

What is the turret in the bottom left corner? It looks like a Panther turret.

In the late part of the war and the Russians closed in on Germany, the Germans utilized Panther Turrets that they did not have a chassis for at the factories. They would mount a functioning Panther turret on a concrete underground bunker. There is detailed information on these stationary defensive points on the internet. They usually had a crew of three who lived in the underground part of the position with only the Panther turret above ground. The crews were relieved after a short period.

Ah, so the mod will go beyond the Winter War (1940) then? I guess that is like the DMP Afrika Korps mod, which has late war tanks in desert camo, too. Cheers

The mod is only about Winter war and not the later, Continuation war.
That don't resembles a Renault FT-17, which were in fact dug in and used as a fortification in the beginning of the Winter War.
It could be a KV-1 or a T-28, but I don't believe that could be any of those.
But the good folk at DMP they do their homework.
So I believe there must be another explanation for that fortification.

I took a look in the editor, and that unit is a coastal gun.

Thanks VPaulus, it had me fooled too. I thought it was a Panther turret. Sure could pass for one.

A new feature in Winterwar:

Destroyable Bridges!

A screenshot of the last scenario in the game, the Conquer of Leningrad.
If you destroy the bridge you can prevent the Kronstadt Garrison reaching the battlefield.

Thank you flakfernrohr!

We are doing our best, but some things are up to do.
I think in the middle of February you can fight against the Russians and protect the freedom of Finland.

Yes, I've been watching all my Finnish war movies for a while now. Even the old classics. The Finns were really tough citizen soldiers. Man for man the Russians were no match, only numbers and technology saved them from an even worse disaster. Any country that makes SAKO rifles cannot be underestimated.
