Finnish campaign battlefield tour

Recommended Posts

As it happens, I was just passing time in Kouvola, and ran into grenny. We went out for a beer which turned into ten vodkas. At one point, thumbs were still pointing upwards.

We visited the battle locations of combat that actually never happened, which was a bit bizzarre. No chinese to be seen this time round. We also found my virtual grave (well, three of them...).

More information to follow, once the hangover passes...

Bet that was fun.

Imagine having to explain this to a perplexed passerby. :D

Here are the 1st Pictures from Finland.

1.: mix of Russian and NATO gear in the armour museum

2.:Karelian-Stew

3.:me next to an MTLB (amazing how flat they are!!!)

4.:Zipuli next to an T-50, they borrowed it from the russians, so far the fins only managed to sent back the ammo :-D

5.: FO-Hill, mission 2

The "FO-Hill" picture is where in mission 2 Hedge (or Eisenschwein?) placed an FO as "stay-behind" unit

Love the pics. The FO position in real life was quite cool. Stew looks damn good!

Ich have scores of photos of the "battlefield"...just need some more time to sort and upload.

Also I want to put the SB-view next to it.

I was realy cool. The experience with SB made it possible to orientate in the real terrain!!

Speaks volumes for the quality of the sim!

Befor you ask.

Karelian-Stew:

-50% Reindeer

-30%-Moose

-20%-Polar bear

+some carrots.

Eat with mashed-potato and vodka :-D

'Jimmy, pop out and get me some more Reindeer'.

'OK Boss'

'And Freddie, go and get some extra Moose'.

'I'll do my best but those Moose are scary.'

And you, Michael, fetch another polar bear.'

'You have gotta be joking right? You want polar bear, go get it yourself!'

FO Party: "Oi! Where the f**k you been??!! We've been sitting here for weeks!"

Grenny: "Oh, er, yeah."

Zip: "Uh, sorry about that."

:bigsmile:
