Contexte historique :
On the night between 25th / 26th of February 1940, the Jaeger company was transferred by trucks to Heponotko (3 km North-East from the Honkaniemi depot) and skied to the starting point, arriving at 0400 hours. The tank company arrived 30 minutes later, after making a 50 km march. The march in bad conditions, costed the tank company 5 tanks to various reasons, mainly engine failures. The tank company was divided into two sections, 6 tanks to support the 2nd and 3rd Jaeger companies and 2 tanks to support the 1st company securing the left flank.

The Soviet forces were lead elements from the 84th division which were supported by T-26 tanks. The Soviet forces were preparing an attack on that same day, so the opposition was stronger than expected, since the units that were ordered to attack had taken their positions along the front.

The stage is set, the battle lines are drawn, and you are in command. The rest is history.
