/k/ - Weapons

Slav's are cannon fodder, Finns are tough people fighting defensively and fiercely in their own territory to defend their people, and they had a good Swedish general.

The environment wasn't suited to conventional warfare that the Russians expected and sent cold and tired conscripts to fight snowniggers properly trained in guerrilla warfare the terrain necessitated.

the above but also that Mannerheim was a genius who had served with distinction in the Russian military under the tsar and who had previously led the nationalists to victory in the finnish civil war.

Killing off everyone well educated with military experience as well as theoretical knowledge of warfare and replacing them with niggers tends to cause you to lose wars.

Fins were secretly supported by Nazi Germany at the height of its economy.

Soviets were in the death throes of gulag-stage "revolution".

The people Stalin (a Georgian) sent to Finland were ethnic Russians who were meant to die, he fucking hated them. Didn't provide food, clothing, weapons… and none of them were actually trained soldiers.

Winter war is what happens when people mistake the objective. Everyone thought it was about Finland, when in reality it was about Staling killing 2 birds with one stone:

1. Assert himself on the world stage as a power.

2. Get a bunch of ethnic Russian city boys killed.

Of course Fins ferocity made #1 kind of a failure…. but the way Stalin set it up he had to win in some way. Denying him objective #1 meant the Fins provided him with objective #2.

Any war in the Balkans. It truly is amazing how countries with such small populations always manage to genocide hundreds of thousands if not millions of civilians every time.

Well, technically the Soviet Union won. They got their demands met even if they did it very inefficiently.

>>589486

>got their demands met

>gained .5% of the land of Finland

really great demands

Fun fact: Hungary was the only country to officially send soldiers to help the Finns. But the war ended by the time the battalion was ready.

Pretty simple anon. You have a highly motivated people defending their shit, not to mention the Bolsheviks figured it would be a good idea to go to war with commisars acting as an officer corp they gutted over politics. Turns out making people fight at gun point isn't the best motivator after all.

Ah, yes! A Hungarian, commonly known as the great underachiever. His only function in life is to go from thread to thread, board to board, parading the achievements of his countrymen! No matter what subject you bring on, he boasts that his country had one man tangentially related to the matter, whereas the silent others' countries had furnished hundreds who contributed greatly to the matter. He boasts, but does not know why he boasts. He's proud, but he has nothing to be proud of personally. He's ignorant, but he knows that his neighbour's great great grandfather once wrote a book about something. His greatest achievement is pissing all the way across a large room and he's proud about the fact that his fellow countryman had fastened a nut on the craft that sent men all the way to the moon.

How would have WW2 played out if the Finns helped? What kind of Damage would Simo have been capable of in Stalingrad?

Is the northeastern front of WW1 considered underrated?

They did help and didn't accomplish much.

They fought against Russians who weren't pumped full of Anglo-Jewish lend-lease.

The centerpiece of the finnish strategy was the "motti": Russian mechanized units such as those notoriously deployed to Suomusalmi were stuck to using roads while the finns could freely navigate the whole terrain. Instead of fighting one giant enemy, the road would be blocked off to cleave the unit into smaller pieces, and the advancing unit was surrounded at all sides and fought to attrition. The finns could also launch stealthy raiding patrols to target field rations and cooking equipment while the russians' ability to do the same was severely limited. Starved enough, the surrendering enemy would leave behind their tanks and guns unscathed and ready to be used against their own countrymen.

Or at least that's the theory.

Because they were winning?

Brusilov annihilated the austro-hungarian army in late 1916 which is what forced Germany to cease it's attack on Verdun and redeploy their army east.

That guy gets his info from wikipedia, you're better off researching it yourself.

You are completely right, he didn't buy a book about the climate of Finland. Might as well start reading random blogs and forums.

That's one finnish source out of five sources presented. And the finnish source is a novel funded by a tabletop game studio, it's not academic or official.

When I say you're better off researching it yourself, I meant a little more than reading fucking blogs. But you knew that, you're just hitting below the belt like a pussy fanboy.

But his ID wasn’t 0s, so he isn’t a tor poster. Ist it only certain areas of Aus/NZ that don’t get a flag or is it random, because Aus/NZ flags obviously show up sometimes.

>No flags literally don't have a flag like my post for example.

I’ve never been clear on that because sometimes when I use My American VPN it has unknown flag, and since I never don’t display flag I assumed ? Flag was for “don’t show flag” and no flag was just an error.

>Southerners get leaf flags because the site can't into IP.

Yeah I know of that issue.

Yeah, a clear reason to leave the site.

It happens with some VPN's, too. One of my burger VPN's used to get me a ? flag sometimes. Never happened with my Dutch or Bong ones.

How often do you see anyone outside of /k/ talk about ANY wars that aren't currently ongoing, except maybe WW2 and Vietnam?

>>589444

From the beginning the Russians were fumbling. Their initial bombing of Helsinki was pretty much a failure, and it just kept on getting worse. The Russian's did not have much military experience fighting in the terrain of Finland, Many of their conscripts had no idea how to ski let alone fight while skiing, and their uniforms were a bright tan camo which was extremely easy to pick out in the snow.

>>589940

Do you have trouble grasping the meaning of "underrated"?

>>594326

Everyone was busy killing filthy reds at the end of the 1910's.

I would actually say the winter war is quite overrated, the Finns lost after all. and yes what they did was kind of impressive but considering the environment, the state of the Red army at that point and how well the Germans would do against the red army it's not that impressive.

cold

Why did Stalin killed the officers and replace them with the inferiors?

>>595393

Because they were huwhite bigots and had traditional education as well as incorrect views.
