As title says. Im Finnish so im complaining why Finland is controlled by Sweden, not Russia as it suppose to be. Will there be finnish troops for russia?
Like Finnish Lifeguard! It fought at least in Borodino and Leipzig, i tried search more, but didn`t succeeded.

I second your comments. A nice war between Russia and Sweden, over Finland, would certianly liven things up. And the Finish Lifeguard Jagers were a darn good unit.

Im not patriotic saying this: indeed, they got status of "old guard"

The Swedes, as portrayed in game, are the pre 1808(9?) army, before it lost it's war with Russia & gave up Finland. So we won't be changing them, except for some minor corrections.

Far as I know in 1805 Sweden controled Finland and in 1809 Russia took over.

Interestingly, the 'Finnish' Lifeguard was actually raised from a St. Petersburg militia regiment which was later based in Finland (technically, I think they mostly remained in the capital when not on campaign).

Most Russian 'Finnish', 'Polish' and similar units were not actually composed of ethnic Finns, Poles, etc., but just based in those regions, since many non-Russians were often exempted from the draft.
