Overview:

As Soviet troops pressed into the wilderness area north of Lake Ladoga, the Finns instituted a full-scale scorched earth policy. Even those Russians lucky enough to find Finnish dwellings still intact met with disaster. With the onset of the severe winter, the Sissi began raids deep behind Red Army lines with standing orders to destroy all shelter. One such raid by the 27th Sissi Company struck several battalion headquarters of the 18th Rifle Division stationed at the village of Aittojoki at dawn.
Attacker: Finnish (27th Sissi Company)
Defender: Russian (Battalion HQ of the 208th and 316th Rifle Regiments)

2023-04-12(A) Shane Pask vs Finnish winLast time I played with SL rules (scenario 23) and totally botched the offence. This time I targeted the sleeping Russians and walked it in losing only 1 1/2 squads (1 in close combat with a HS on turn 1) and getting everyone else off the board in time. Luckily I did as Molotovs were hard to come by, flames were hard to start and many refused to develop into blazes (one even went out by itself - Spreading fire snake eyes). Final tally 44 VP to 3.
2022-04-02(A) Ireneusz Peschke vs Adam W Finnish win
2022-04-02(D) Ireneusz Peschke vs Adam W Finnish winThis scenario is obviously not suitable for a tournament. The Finns will always win:) But it was very interesting. If you want to leave the ruins of cities and feel the atmosphere of the far white and frosty north of Europe with sledges pulled by reindeer. Good for a winter evening with a friend. Play it twice.
2021-12-19(A) Dwayne Duval vs Kevin Duval Finnish winA competent setup in this scenario pretty much guarantees a Finnish victory.
2021-12-19(D) Kevin Duval vs Dwayne Duval Finnish winIt was "Finnished" by the end of Turn 2, Russians had no more unbroken MMC and all leaders dead, with multiple buildings ablaze and more Flames established. Russians decided to look for slumber elsewhere.
