Description

A two player simulation of the Finnish Civil War that cost the lives of over 37,000 Finns. The war was fought in Finland from 27 January to 15 May 1918 between the forces of the Social Democrats led by the People's Deputation of Finland, commonly called the "Reds", and the forces of the non-socialist, conservative-led Senate, commonly called the "Whites". The Reds were supported by Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, while the Whites received military assistance from Sweden and the German Empire.
