I'd suggest a light snack. Maybe an apple - apparently they've got proteins that make you less hungry.

I would say that more people play Hungarian armies as they have a lot better armour options. The Finns have very limited tank support, they make much better infantry armies.

If you want lots of Tigers play Hungarians but if you want extremely good infantry play Finns.

Do not underestimate the Squats. They survived for millenia cut off from the Imperium and assailed on all sides. Their determination and resilience is an example to us all.

Its just a shame that they couldn't fight off Andy Chambers.

A good friend of mine played Midwar Hungarians for a couple years. It was actually one of the most well-rounded armies I'd ever played against. It's a good army if you do it right, definitely not underpowered by any stretch. Their support options weren't awesome, but they have cheap and solid infantry which was able to make up for shortcomings elsewhere. If I remember right, he ran with two full infantry platoons, a full pioneer platoon, PaK40s, some artillery of some sort (probably 105s but I can't remember for sure), Panzer IVs and some armored AAA. That was MW though, I'm guessing LW has the potential to be even nastier.


I'm not sure if more people play Hungarians or Finns, but neither is really what I'd call a common army.

A friend of mine has some brilliant Hungarian lists, they can field a lot of assault guns with the breakthrough gun rule

Yeah, I do see a lot more Finns than Hungarians. I don't think I have ever see a Hungarian army actually. But that's something I like about Fow, even the smaller countries can still be potent armies
