I have coloured everything. Unfortunately, Russia does not have forests. I will ash Rendzwyck, possibly he knows something about this.

See the hoi 2 terrain map or the one I made. It shows all forsested provinces.

Smolensk is smaller city. Thank you for the map Miihkali. But since these forests are not denst, and are matching with marsh terrian, it will remain marsh. But i will keep your map, for Siberia and Russian Far East, as there forests are much larger.

Someone who has more knowledge in Finnish geography could say whether Kajaani and Joensuu are really plains. And aren't Vaasa and Seinäjoki more 'plainish' than Helsinki?

In my opinion in Europe we can just put for example some 70 per cent of plain provinces to forest. There were so many small forests in USSR and so on... Simulating poor infrastructure and not-so-for-motourized-armies territory of USSR.

Marsh is simulating forests, rivers and small lakes that are too small to put into HoI map.

ADukes said:
Not a good idea to use these maps to determine forest provinces, they are from 1972/74.

If you find better post it. If nobody finds better, we have just use these. And, some forests can be cut down, but it's almost sure that areas which are forests in this map were forests also in 1930s.

Do not forget all lakes. Arround lakes is noble fertile land. As we cannot add all lakes as independent provinces, this is the alternative way to simulate them.

Joensuu should be marsh too, especially since the City is right near a lake. And Kajaani should not be plains, forest instead.

Sevilla, I used Videns terrain solutions, except forests.

Joensuu - marsh - OK
Kajaani - forest - OK
Vaasa - plains or forest - No - province shape matches marsh terrian position
Alta - Hills or Mtns - highest peak - 1139 m - in our standards too low for mountain - too many marsh parts of land - remains marsh
Luleå - plains or forest - my map shows many marsh terrains with rivers.

Most of the Vaasa province is not marsh lands.
Luleå: I live here, I think I know what to have for my home province, okay? The western lakes can be bypassed by every army that goes through the Luleå province, and since the only hinders are rivers along the coast, it's either plains or forest. If you think of marsh, you might as well think of hills since it's very hilly in the interior.

Alta: Does this look like marsh to you?

Of coure it looks. And I have fixed other provinces as you proposed. Before your post.
Ad i added forests in Russia, based on Delex's map.

Either you are blind or just strange. The cities are located on the coast, which is very rocky and hilly, not in the interior. To capture the province, you need to capture the cities, which almost all are located on the coast (important cities). Which again, is hilly and rocky, rough terrain. That does not remind me of a marsh. I don't see a lot of Lakes in Alta province at all, just a few big ones. What captures my eye is the extremely rocky coast which, by the way, takes up more of the province.

Sorry,but I see absolutely no reason to make Straßburg urban!
There's no such dense citys AND/OR industry to give this area this advantage.
As some posted before,Lyon and/or Marseille would fit better thatfore.
