    The rules state that 11 or 12 is a failure only due to the maximum morale being 10, but the most recent faq explicitly states that the Finnish sisu rule is an exception to that maximum. I would say that in the original scenario, the squad would only rout on double 6. Some better clarification from warlord on this point would be good I suppose.

    Question about the Panzerbuchse 41.. Rules state that at ranges under 12″ “base armour penetration is increased by 2”, but at over half range the pen is “reduced by 2 instead of the usual 1”. My question is, what is the profile of this gun against unarmored targets? The reduction in penetration for long range only applies against armored targets as far as I know. RAW seems to suggest that against unarmored targets it gets the +4 against unarmored targets at all ranges. Is this correct? Or would it be +6 under 12 and +4 at other ranges?

    The Finns have a ton of variety in their army list, both from a gameplay and a historical point of view. If you aren’t interested in the winter war, there is a lot of interesting fluff in the continuation war/Lapland war to build a list around. Their army rules are very powerful, and they have access to a lot of different choices, which is sort of a rarity amongst the minor powers. Their army special rules sort of lend themselves to lots of regulars with rifles, but I am somewhat partial to the veteran Sissi squads myself. The Master of the Hunt special rule that they also share with the Finnish sniper benefitted enormously from the changes to down and ambush orders in v2. Overall, they are a very infantry centric army and work best when treated as such, but when you get bored with that there’s a nice selection of Finnish/German/Russian armour to play with!
