I know we have a number of Finns who are active on TMP, but is there sufficient support (50) for a board devoted to wargaming in Finland?

ashauace6970 Supporting Member of TMP14 May 2015 3:29 p.m. PST

I for one would like it

Winston Smith14 May 2015 3:32 p.m. PST

Why not waive the 50 in this instance?
Some of them were very helpful when I was painting a Finnish FoW army.

sneakgun14 May 2015 3:34 p.m. PST

Yes !

Yesthatphil14 May 2015 3:59 p.m. PST

I'd vote if it helped get the 50 ..

Would it cost anything to set one up? If it's used, great, if not, it can be dropped. Seems a worthwhile exercise.

A big yes for a Finnish F1 board, scratch that. A big yes for a Finnish Wargaming board.

Ski, shoot a Russian, ski, shoot a Russian, ski, shoot a Russian…wait, that's a Olympic sport now!!!:)

Yes, by all means. Especially after playing Russian during the 1940 invasion…still have nightmares…

Ragbones14 May 2015 4:41 p.m. PST

Sure.

Intrepide14 May 2015 7:22 p.m. PST

Will you be Finnished at that point?

CATenWolde14 May 2015 11:23 p.m. PST

Speaking as an American ex-pat living in Helsinki … are we talking about a "Finnish wargamers and wargames" board or a "wargaming wars in Finland" board?

Mute Bystander15 May 2015 3:04 a.m. PST

Whatever.

BigJoeDuke15 May 2015 4:47 a.m. PST

Miksi ei?

Does every country with X amount of members get its own board? According to TMP stats, there are many countries that should have their own board before Finland, to include Spain, Portugal, Poland, Netherlands, France, Germany, etc. What, exactly, would be the point?

Griefbringer15 May 2015 7:13 a.m. PST

According to TMP stats, there are many countries that should have their own board before Finland, to include Spain, Portugal, Poland, Netherlands, France, Germany, etc.

Actually, we do already have boards for:

- Dutch-Belgian wargaming
- French wargaming
- German wargaming
- Spanish wargaming

plus some other ones, but not for Portugal or Poland.

Now that you mention it, I have seen boards for those countries. Thanks.

Korvessa15 May 2015 10:04 a.m. PST

Would this include
Finnish units in other armies?
Say 30yw or GNW…

Personal logo DWilliams Supporting Member of TMP18 May 2015 8:42 a.m. PST

If this board includes the former Finnish territories of Karelia (now presently in Russia), then I would definitely be in favor.

Shadyt18 May 2015 9:53 a.m. PST

Yes

Old Contemptibles18 May 2015 2:33 p.m. PST

Why do you ask? They are the ones who should ask, not anyone else. So if they want their own board they will let you know.

Why are you asking the entire membership? I'm not Finish. I make it a rule to oppose all new boards. The Finns need to bring up the subject and push for it. Not anyone else. They are perfectly capable of suggesting a poll.

Patrick Sexton Supporting Member of TMP20 May 2015 9:36 a.m. PST

Because they are Finns, I say yes to this addition.

Petrov20 May 2015 10:23 a.m. PST

Finns do not talk
