"Yeah heh translated might have been the wrong use of word, thanks for correcting me"
I am wandering about by wich name to use about sissi units: guerilla or ranger? Sissi companys are also specially guerilla warfare trained light infantry units wich make sabotage and raider strikes and reconnaisance against enemy supply lines and troops behind enemy lines and finnish terrain is ideal for guerilla warfare. Sissi units can be temporarily used like infantry in defence missions if situation demands that. "Take Iraq for example, men with 0 training and low quality weapons are racking up allot of kills on the US military. Imagine if it was a highly trained unit like the Rangers doing these guerilla attacks." Insurgent's action has been surprising effective. Their advantage is their iniative and they choose the time and place where to fight but for american's luck insurgents seem to have more fanatiscm than skills ![]() |

Sissi units are not special forces, they are light infantry trained for guerilla warfare behind enemy lines against supply convoys, headquarters, command posts and communication lines. Guerilla training unit is called as "Sissikomppania" (Guerilla company) and that trains both guerilla and reconnaisance units. Training companys are stationed in eastern garrisons and border units border jaegers are sissi trained. The main difference between Sissi and recon units is that sissi units are primarily fighting units making sudden ambushes/raider strikes and recon units try to avoid any combat and concentrate on reconnaisance. Training is physically and mentally tougher than in regular infantry. In training 150km long ski marches and long afterstrike overnight moves avoiding pursuiting enemy patrols aren't weird stuff. Sissi units missions behind lines are usually: -Raider strikes -Ambushes -Sabotage -Violent reconnaisance -Prisoner taking -Traffic count (like recon teams) -Temporary defence missions (if needed) ![]() Sissi branch insignia hand badge. |

"Since northern Sweden is very sparsely populated there are also very few roads. This makes the enemy’s supply lines very vulnerable. If you destroy key parts of a road, there are no alternative supply routes to use - no supplies will reach the front. It is also very easy to repeatedly ambush enemy supply convoys, since there are no alternative roads for them to travel on." Kings terrain and winter are on guerilla's side ![]() http://tietokannat.mil.fi/puuma04/in...d=26&width=640 A couple of guerillas carrying their all field gear. Light combat equipments, no combat belts, helmets or vests. |
