Maybe about 500 others have already asked for this, but does version 5.0 have language support in finnish (kyl my� puhutaa muutaki ku savvoo :))? In finnish Pelit-lehti they put SPWAW 4.5 on their cover-CD and several readers have already asked for finnish language-version. So, how it�s gonna be?

We plan on updating ( and are doing so now ) all of the Language EXE files. We want to also include manuals but are finding that Language programs are not doing a very good job in translating. We currently have completed French, German, Italian, Spanish, Polish, Finnish and we are considering some others.

Translation to Spanish? It seems wonderful. I am wargaming since twenty years ago (I'm 37) and never, NEVER, had seen a decent translation of a Wargame rules. In the last few years, one or two computer games were well translated to spanish, those are DiabloII and Shogun:TotalWar. But is difficult to find games that touch military well translated. Actually I choose the original (english) version of the rules. But thats because the translators NEVER had any idea about militar history, armies, war hardware, etc.. And that's not the case with SPWAW... Thanks thanks tanks.

Allrighty then. I notified all the finnsih Pelit-magazine readers about this in their bulletin board. We�ll keep on waitin�. Finnish is such a hard language to translate with any of the so called translation-programs, because our language has such a bunch of different spelling exeptions. I think that in the future finnish SPWAW gamers are more than happy to help you guys to translate manuals and other game options in finnish. Right?
