With the 168th Map of the Week, we take a look at Espoo, a Karelian seaport and naval town.

GAME MASTER'S NOTE: The map shows the main part of the town. This is an area 2,400 x 1,600 feet/720 x 480 meters in size. Farms and fishing cottages continue for another half mile/800 meters westward along the coast. Farms and freshwater fishermen's cottages are on both sides of the Nyt north of the map's border. Scrubby coastal hills, partly visible on the map, go up both sides of the Nyt's banks.
