This content-packed DLC includes all of the Operations in Yugoslavia in 1944, the appearance of Finnish forces in the area North of Leningrad, the attack in the Caucasus, and a wealth of hypothetical scenarios.

Furthermore, the Drama on the Danube scenario places the German players in the difficult position of trying to deal with the surrender of Romania and Bulgaria and the difficulties of the German forces in Greece trying to escape North through the partisan-controlled territory.

Hi,

Please be informed that the Finnish Front can ONLY be played in a small scenario, the Grand Campaign got NO update.

@Matrixgames: I had here a different impression so a scenarioupdate would be terrific!

Many thanks!

There' no plan to open Finland in campaigns, it just does not work with the AI. There is a Finland campaign made by a modder: https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/view ... 0&t=380058 but that's not suitable vs AI

Can anyone clarify what exactly is included in the 10 dollar extra option for Steel. Like what I'm asking is if I don't opt to spend the xtra 10 bucks, then what don't I get. Thanks.

Hi!
And thank you for this great game! I agree, not including the Finns in the 1941 grand campaign (and the attack on Murmansk "Operation Silver Fox") is a small regret for me. But I bought Steel Inferno for the support and for the interesting scenarios in Yugoslavia and Balkans!
Thank you for all

My next hope: to put War in the west at the level of the Steel Inferno (without even mentioning the absolute dream: to merge everything for an European war 1939-1945!)
