[DISCONTINUED NO LONGER UPDATED] The Battle of Tali-Ihantala 1944

Tali-Ihantala 1944 Intended for constant PvP game, set in the Karelian Isthmus during the Continuation War between Finland and the Soviet Union in 1944. In June 1944, almost exactly 73 years ago, the Soviets launched a massive attack to break the Finnish defence on the Karelian Isthmus. One of the more well known battles was the Battle of Tali-Ihantala, and I am mainly depicting my vision of the battle in the town of Tali and the lake area surrounding it, such as Leitimojärvi.

The main goal for Finland was to reconquer the numerous lands (such as the Karelian Isthmus) they had lost during the previous Winter War (1939-1940), which were unfairly taken by the Soviet Union. Nazi Germany had initiated Operation Barbarossa a bit earlier, and decided to help Finland drive back the Soviets from their lands. Should be noted that Finland was not part of the Axis, it was simple as "the enemy of my enemy is my friend". The war ended in a peace treaty between Finland and the Soviet Union, which meant that Finland had to drive the German soldiers that had helped in the war out from their lands, give "back" areas like the Karelian Isthmus, Salla and Petsamo. Finland also had to le
