Sweden in Hoi4

[Caaarl81]

One of my favorite games were HOI2 and that all the Swedish units and techs had real historic names. Will there be the same in Hoi4 or just for the big 8 nations?

 

[Maizel]

Just for the major nations.

 

[Anton Rex]

Personally I will mod the crap out of Sweden.

 

[Loke]

Sweden, neutral and when Russia attacks Finland, Swedish stance should switch to none belligerent.

 

[Victor Cortez]

7 big nations, not 8

At launch everyone else's stuff will have generic names (apart from the heads of govm), hopefully more will be implemented later.

Paradox is a big fan of Sweden since it is their home country. It won't have its own stuff and will just be a general simply due to its lack of involvement in the war, but they will probably be in the first dlc/patch that upgrades some minors. Likely along the lines of China, Romania, Spain, Hungary, Canada, Australia etc

This is probably the only reason why Sweden would get preferential treatment. If we actually go by war involvement. It would be well behind Canada, Australia, Poland, Chine, New Zealand. Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Belgium, The Netherlands and so on.

It should not matter as this is not a game to go 100% by history and Sweden as a nation in Hoi4 will be allowed to do what it is able to but also what it feels helps him out the most. Hence it is a valid dlc or update anyway. I won't play any historical game myself.. so all neutral nations will be just as valid for me to play as, with and against.

[some pretty hilarious shit]

I see what you did there...

So, I take it you're a Finn? Or a Norwegian (though I don't know if Swedish is compulsory there as well)?

Many thanks I even got the Vasa jokes. I am proud of myself now

Tasty tasty Swedish industry, so close to the Finnish borders. Makes for a great early target. The Swedes can't deal with Finnish SISU anyways, especially if the Finns call on Perkele.

 

[Killerrabbit]

As seen in the screenshot, Sweden gets all equipment properly named. The same would be true of most medium nations.
