Much like Sherman in the South, Stalin didn’t go far enough with the Finns

    Actually, the Mannerheim line was deliberately weak and exposed Finns to Soviet arms, only to prove how terrible Soviet strategy/engineering/whatever was and exalt the Finnish victory. Each Finnish soldier, despite only being armed with a wooden spoon, defeated a hundred Russian Orks, armed with the best and worst tanks.

    EDIT: I’m very drunk. Satire.
