When Soviet forces invaded Finland in December, 1939, the Finns mobilized their small army of poorly-equipped but highly-motivated reservists. At Tolvajarvy the enormously outnumbered Finns stopped a well-led offensive by three Soviet divisions and counterattacked. After fierce fighting, the Finns had scored the first victory of the Winter War and electrified their demoralized population and army.

Winter Fury recaptures this desperate battle, as the Soviets deploy their Red Finnish allies, tanks and air superiority. The Finns counter with their highly mobile ski troops and the indomitable spirit known as sisu.

Playable as a stand alone game or a fully compatible sequel to Blood On The Snow.
