First look at Freezing Inferno

About Freezing Inferno, from BoardGameGeek:

Freezing Inferno is an Operational level 1 or 2 players board-wargame set in World War II covering the 1939-1940 conflict between the USSR and Finland. It is a hex & counter wargame with unique battle mechanism, a lot of strategy, some diplomacy and a number of features specific to the harsh winter conditions of the setting. Freezing Inferno is medium level complexity and lasts from 3 to 6 hours. Variable setup and random cards bringing effects to the game offers replayability. Freezing Inferno is a game for one or two players - one player controls Finland, while the other player controls the USSR. In order for the USSR to win, it must occupy 2 of the 3 Finnish Key Cities (marked with an asterisk) and hold them until the beginning of the next round, while also controlling at least 5 of its 7 Home Cities. If this is not achieved by the end of the 8th round, the winner of the game is the player who controls Finland.
