The Storm Unleashed*
*
Date: August 8, 1985*
*
Battle Location: Muurola, Finland*
*
Battle Type: Finland defend vs USSR assault*
*
Description: WW3 has begun in Europe.*
*
The initial Soviet advance into Finland is poorly executed and the level of resistance throws the assault forces into disarray. On nearly all avenues of attack the Soviet advance is halted, but only temporarily. The Soviets are surprisingly quick to recover and return, enraged, with orders to squash all resistance mercilessly.*
*
The Finnish mobilisation is well under way and most units have been called up, but many formations have yet to reach their assigned areas. Those units that have managed to deploy are facing worse and worse odds.*
*
At Muurola the slightly reinforced Battalion Nurmi is dug in with orders to hold. There are no reserves ready in the area and a Soviet breakthrough could prove disastrous for the Finnish side.*
*
Notes: If played against the AI the human player should take the Finnish side.*
