Singleton Mosby said:Well you are a bit right. The 'abteilung' was no part of "wiking' but of SS-division Nordland. But, there where Swedes in the ranks of Wiking. I will alter the former text a bit.
Spricar said:Just out of curiosity...you are playing 1941 scenario with Germany, aren't you?
Singleton Mosby said:Indeed nothing I write is real and only based upon some 'facts' of the real division. The scenario I play is the 1939 Blitzkrieg one.
Spricar said:Interesting and very well written begining! I sure hope that kid gets to Moscow or even beyond!
Just out of curiosity...you are playing 1939 scenario with Germany. Is it maybe modded with HSR (as I recall that mod gives you armoured divisions with SS attachment called Wiking, once you capture Norway). Moreover, did you follow hisorical path or not (alliances, conquests, OOB in N. Africa,...)?
Singleton Mosby said:It is not modded whatsoever. The only thing I did is rename a Motorised division SS-division 'Wiking'.
On the historical path, see above. A bit but not completely. I did not invade Greece and Crete but I have an alliance with the Slovaks, Hungarians, and Rumanians (also the Italians and Japs) and those (but not the Bulgarians) will fight on the Southern front. "Wiking" and Sepp Dietrich will be in the midst of them.

Singleton Mosby said:Ain't it a little over three kilometers an hour? Not that much for tanks, trucks and halftracks I suppose. I can do it walking....
