Default MISSION IMPOSSIBLE (Ctd)

The situation at the end of the war 13 March 1940.

The Finns were holding but to the prize of terrible losses in human lives. The Soviet lost ten times the Finns but seemed to have unlimited sources and no feelings for casualities.

At the end of the war the Finns had organized another three Divisions = 12. The Soviets had gained strenght from 30 to 44 Divisions despite several lost in battle.

The Finnish HQ realized that sooner or later the country would bleed to death. The hard peace was accepted and Soviet Union gained Petsmo, Salla and parts of Karelia.

105 days of war between David and Goliath had ended.
