Thanks warband for repairing my town :) fuck you too then warbanf

Side note. I really lover teh Russia vs. Sweden. They actually are exact opposites

Sweden: Military is an honor, Small Volunteer force, Highest morale in the world
Russia: Slave soldiers, huge conscription force, low morale

Indeed, BabyJesus, you truly deserve this sticker

I believe that place of such role-playing propaganda is rather in the game thread, not here. If you want to talk here, then please, stay true to historical facts. Military in Sweden wasn't an honour, it was a business. Son of landless peasant would receive own farm in exchange for his service, so it was just profitable to join an army. Morale was indeed guite good in Swedish forces (for soldiers wanted to win and return to their farms), but on the other hand, indelta were rather militia than real standing army, so Swedish army was terribly trained and could not be compared to real armies of any european powers. Also morale of Russians cannot be called "low". These people were one of the best drilled soldiers in Europe, thanks to brutal discipline they were like machines fighting to the very last moment. Russian generals were bad, it's true, they used obsolete tactics, had no knowledge about advanced manoeuvres, etc but the soldiers themselves were very good, well trained and with quite high morale.
There is a story that scientists built an inteligent computer.
The first question they asked it was "Is there a God?"
The computer replied "There is now."
And the bolt of lightning struck the plug,
So it couldn't be turned off.

Your right about the Swedish being poorly trained. They had like 1 training a year.

And this wasn't really propaganda or anything. It's just something I found interesting
