The second scenario takes place during the battle of Tali-Ihantala, 27th June 1944. German Sturmgeschuetz Brigade 303 has been transfered to help the Finns in Karelian Isthmus, where the Soviet grand offensive shows no signs of slowing down. The Brigade is attached to Lagus' Armoured Division. In this scenario the second battery (Oberleutnant Baldauf with 7 Stug IIIGs) of this brigade is supporting Osasto Forsberg (Colonel Forsberg) attacking south from Ihantala to reach Vakkila Crossroads and maybe later Tali? Enemy has been reported dug in at Marjamaki and they have constant barrages pouring down on the attacking Finns. Will the attack prevail and turn the tide, at least for this short time?
StgBr303 elements leave Lappeenranta to help the Finns at Karelian Isthmus. The spirits at Helsinki were raised with the arrival of the unit and its warmachines a bit earlier.
