New (8P) Tali-Ihantala - Night

With the sieges of Leningrad and Stalingrad in the process of a breakout, Soviet forces were once again on the attack, forcing the Continuation War into 1944. Woefully underequipped, Finnish infantry bolstered their defences and equipment with German equipment, closing the road into Karelia from the Leningrad Front. This road, slipping between the villages of Tali and Ihantala, became a killzone for Soviet forces, with dense outcroppings proving an impassable labyrinth for vehicles, and wide, open roads fatal for straying infantry.
