This is a fantastic AAR! How do you find such great images? I can barely find any good images for my AAR with google.
How come you don't show the insignia of the Finnish airforce?

I´ve edited the infrastructure of the region to historical levels - there were four (4!) dirt roads crossing the border during the war era, and thus the amusing 40-60% infrastructure levels that Paradox placed to Eastern Karelia are gone for good:

The gameplay part will start from 1939-scenario, but I still have ton of tinkering to do to before the virtual Winter War will begin, so expect the previously promised naval update next.
Looking forward to it ^_
I wonder if Paradox added good infra to those provinces so that USSR AI actually wins the winter war fairly quickly instead of getting bogged down until 1942.
The early test games I´ve played seem to indicate that such ahistorical and unrealistic shortcuts are luckily unnecessary. I plan to ensure this by adding plains-terrain to southern Isthmus and using Krazy19Karls Magrathea map mod. I´m under the impression that he plans to change the provincial borders in the region so that Koivisto and not Käkisalmi will have two-province border. This way Käkisalmi will remain a sideshow front behind the Vuoksi-river and these changes should encourage the AI to fully focus its efforts to the vicinity of Leningrad.
The fact that the AI also tends to send single divisions to wander along the narrow "roads" of higher infra in northern part of the country without any consideration to flank security is also quite promising
Well, I hope it doesn't look like this at the beginning of the Winter War:
Can't really wait for the next update, keep up the excellent work

Oh well.
How do they plan to defend the seas during winter?
Love the pics
