Overview:

The Germans were not only fighting the Soviet offensive in the north of Finland, but their units in the south now had to fight their way past Finnish units attempting to cut off their routes to the north. The last German unit to make its way north was Bataillon 3, Infanterie-Regiment 12 of SS-Gebirgs-Division 6 "Nord". On 28 October, it started the last leg of its march to Muonio when, at dusk, it was halted just outside of town by units of the Finnish 11th Infantry Division, which occupied a commanding hill astride the road. With night falling, the Gebirgsjagers hastily planned the attack against their former brothers-in-arms.

2023-03-08(A) Douglas Leslie vs Marc Hanna German (SS) winThe SS prioritised clearing the road with their first group and entered from the east edge with the artillery observer. Early turns saw them lose two leaders and sustain a wounded observer but thereafter the Finns struggled to inflict any damage on the attackers. The VP cap was never an issue and the SS firepower overwhelmed the defenders on the hill. The Finns managed to take the game to the final CC phase when a squad in a foxhole on the hill overlooking the road survived massive firepower attacks before succumbing in close combat to give the Germans the win. Marc didn't realise that his dummies could have set up in foxholes at the start of the game and the German cause was assister greatly when the NVR reduced to one in the first turn and never increased for the rest of the game.
