Sorry, but finns used weapons all of their own.  Their own mosin type, one smg, own lmg, own vickers type, own pistol.  Only thing they used in common from the russians is the 91/30 and the DP LMG.  Even finnish stugs use the DP, not the MG34.

Except the flamethrower :P

Not sure if we even used the flamethrower.. PzFaust and Pzschreck can be used as is, since no finnish instructions were supplied, and stukas don't need a finnish re-skin, but BF-109s do.
I think finland would be nice for a couple reasons.  1st with the new eastern front in the making it would fit right in.  The finns dont need alot of custom weapons, since they can use alot of russian and german ones. 
Not a single german weapon was used, if AT-assets and Stugs don't count.

Finns used flamethrowers during all three wars.

And were used in the Lapland war.

Not extensively thought, compared to operational usage of Stugs during late cont.war, their use was quite limited and mostly concentrated into training tank crews. Especially since Finns werent allowed to have a big operational army anymore, but very stripped divisions due to peace conditions of cont.war. Most tanks that finns used during the lapland war were of the old light tanks such as T-26E's, Vickers 6-tons and different types of T-34's. Some stugs were first transported north but then they noticed that the T-34 performed better in that terrain so they pulled them back and never put Stug into real action again. Pz4J's saw very limited action and I have no records in which battles they took place. Most likely in none.

Hungary:D

We were in Finnland too, to help against the bolseviks,
and near the river Don, and here in Hungary were a lot of battles, tank battles too, and the battle of Budapest, with the breakout, it could be very cool.
We used german tanks, guns too, but we had a lot of hungarian tanks, and guns and weapons.
And we have fought in germany too, for examples the first hungarian Waffen-ss division called Hunyadi.
When The Red Army reached Silesia, forcing the division to retreat to Bavaria and later to Austria. In Austria it fought against forces from the US Third Army before surrendering 4–5 May near the Attersee.

Hungary is not going to be there in my opinion for some time, but who knows...

There was this guy who was working on Hungarian stuff for FH2, but no news about him for almost 2 years. He even had a website and got many content ready.
