Karelia 44 is an operational level game that focuses on the last major campaign of the Russo-Finnish Continuation War (25 June 42 to 4 Sept 44).
STAVKA planned an offensive during the summer of 1944 to coincide with the Normandy landings. The objective was to force Finland out of the war. Towards this end, the Soviets amassed two ground armies, one air army, and an impressive amount of artillery. Confident after a series of victories against the Germans, the Red Army attacked in Karelia on 9 June 44. The attack began with an overwhelming artillery barrage (second only to the Oder crossings in intensity). Finnish lines were pushed back and then breache the race for Viipuri/Vyborg was on. The capture of this city would open the road to Helsinki.
