Overview:

After losing the important city of Viipuri to the Soviets, the Finns withdrew to the next natural defense barrier, the Kivisilta Strait. A small Soviet force crossed at the narrowest part of the strait and formed a bridgehead, and Finnish GHQ ordered a counterattack to clear it. After a failed attempt by 10th Company, Infantry Regiment 61, the job was given to the badly understrength 11th Company with a promise of assault gun support. The attack kicked off without any armor, but shortly thereafter two BT-42s arrived, providing the needed support for the assault to progress.

2024-09-30(A) Douglas Leslie vs Eric Partizan Eric Finnish winTook the Finns in this fun little scenario from Hakka Paalle. They have the advantage of range and high morale but it is not easy to break every Russian unit. After a couple of turns of ineffective fire, the Russian defenders finally started to break under fire. The key moment was when my lone surviving BT tank passed its movement TC to "bypass freeze" two 628s with a leader. This resulted in the worst possible outcome in the CCPh when the tank was immobilized and thus held the defenders in melee while the Finnish infantry moved in for the kill. Better still, in the next turn it managed to hit the defenders with its MA and break them. This allowed the Finns to storm the "Alamo building" which was defended by a lone 527 with an ATR. In the end it came down to a CC battle at odds of 1 to 1 in which the Finns eventually prevailed by reducing the Russians to a HS in the first CC before finishing them off in the final turn. This could very easily have gone the other way and it is easy to see why the results are do close in previous playings.
