About nuke strikes in Scandinavia…
We can agree to disagree.
Now let’s move on!
I have been thinking some campaign ideas to Baltic Sea area.
Estonian oil shale – who is going to control this valuable resource?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_shale_in_Estonia
Soviets – crushing new independent Estonian state.
Finland – supporting new independent Estonia. Not direct involvement but a proxy war. Arming & training of Estonian freedom fighters. There are close ties between Finnish and Estonian people. Many Estonian volunteered to serve in Finnish army & navy during WW 2 – because they didn’t want serve in German army. Finnish volunteers also trained Estonians in 80s, when Estonian was trying to regain its independence.
(ex-NATO mercenaries – welcome to Tallinn.)
Sweden – Without nuclear strikes Swedish is going to be very strong military power in northern Europe (mini France). They can try direct occupation of Estonian oil shale mining and production areas
.
Of course you can throw in different political factions in your campaign to create game without goodies and baddies.
Great WMD hunt
Swedish and Finnish special forces trying to find nuclear warheads on soviet soil. Their goal is to find working nuclear warheads. (If war is going to “heat up” again, there is no better defense against nuclear blackmail…) Of course you have to specialist to maintain and rearm those weapons. Again unnuked Sweden can send their own special forces, but Finnish army is going to use mercenaries to locate those warheads. (They can even hire some stragglers from 5th division…)
Soviets : GRU spetsnaz team trying to regain those lost warheads. KGB trying to “help” their comrades…
