I will try to give my impression of this faction. It has a start made for buildup if you just keep neighbours happy. I like that but historically Sweden was att war with everyone (Poland, Russia and Denmark) at the year 1700. I'm so happy and impressed that real native languages are used and it is with perfect accent in this faction. Sadly though commands are pronounced qite corny and some are really wrong. Some are good thogh. The command "fire" is (i belive) the historically correct "ge fyr" in swedish I just wish they had someone else pronunce it, but i'ts not untollerable.
My greatest disapointment is the lack of swedish uniqe units and the low quality of the line infantry. Especially since there are usable examples like "livdrabanter" (sort of royal guard). The hakkapelitta which is in the game seems to be one the crappiest unit in the faction and sadly the only uniqe unit for the faction!? The swedish line infantry is mediocre compared to the the other factions. Historically Sweden had a very strong army at the time with an agressive doctrine relying heavily on melee and manouvering to win. The line infantry could have been made with higher morale or attack values than it has now.
Overall i like the faction and the game is awsome, spectacular when bugs are fixed.
