Beginning on 30 December, units of the Soviet 108th Guards Rifle Division’s 311th Guards Rifle Regiment, supported by SU-76Ms from the 1897th Self-Propelled Artillery Regiment, launched a series of attacks from the area around St. Janos Hospital in an effort to dislodge the Axis defenders from the Városmajor Grange.

2022-03-04(D) Richard Jenulis vs Dennis Hess Hungarian / German (SS) winThe game ended at the top of turn 3. The Russians were obliterated entering the board. At the end of the game, the Russians had only two and a half squads and two leaders in good order, The Hungarians lost only a half squad. Albeit, the Hungarians had very hot dice, but still would rate this pro-Axis.
2022-02-27(A) Vic Lauterbach vs RC and RV Hungarian / German (SS) winI tried the flanks and made some progress against Renato's Hungarians around K33 but the SU76s quickly found Robert's hidden guns the hard way! I badly misjudged the LOS along the RR. Motion, orchard hindrances and +1 size was not enough to save the SU76s. There's no where to hide around the VC hex.
Robert & Renato's well thought out defense was too much for my attack. In retrospect, I would send the SU76s through the orchard on the L38-N35 hill but eventually one has to get to the emRR intact, no easy task! The beautiful HASL map almost made losing a pleasure ;) Good game!
2022-01-10(A) Eric Michael vs John Stadick Russian win
2021-04-20(A) James Forrest vs Draw
2020-12-19(D) Rich Weiley vs Dave Wallace Hungarian / German (SS) winGood scenario, possibly pro-Axis. Held on to the G31 and F31 buildings. Sniper chimed in the last turn to kill the Soviet 9-1 and break the squad moving with him to ensure there was no way the Soviets could enter either building.
