08 FEBRUARY, 1940, SUMMA, WEST KARELIAN ISTHMUS
Soviet Force commander: Comrade! You have the honor of smashing through the enemy defense line and attacking his vital rear areas. Comrade Marshal Timoshenko is counting on you to succeed. Do not fail!
Finnish commander: A Red tank column has broken through our main defense line but without infantry support. Your "bomber" unit will be tasked with stopping these tanks. They must not get through!
This scenario depicts the desperate AT measures used by the Finns to counter the overwhelming numbers of armored vehicles unleashed upon them by the Soviets in their bid to crush Finland. Red Army tank losses in the Karelian Isthmus during the Winter War as a result of mines, satchel charges, or burned amounted to 819 tanks destroyed. Sisu, indeed!
