Overview:

At dawn on March 23, 1939 Hungary suddenly attacked Slovakia from Carpatho-Ukraine with instructions being to "proceed as far to the west as possible". Hungary attacked Slovakia without any declaration of war, catching the Slovak army unprepared, because many Slovak soldiers were in transit from the Czech region and had not reached their Slovak units yet. Despite the awful confusion caused by the hurried mobilization and desperate shortage of officers, the Slovak force in Michalovce had coalesced sufficiently to attempt a counterattack by the following day. This was largely due to Czech Major Kubíček, who had taken over command from Haššik and begun to get a better grip on the situation. Because they were based on a widely available civilian truck, spares were soon found to repair five of the sabotaged OA vz.30 armoured cars in Prešov, and they reached Michalovce at 5:30 am on March 24. Their Czech crews had been replaced by scratch teams of Slovak signallers from other technical armed forces. They were immediately sent on a reconnaissance mission to Budkovce, some 15 km south of Michalovce, but could not find any trace of the Hungarians. It was decided to counterattack eastwards where the most advanced Hungarian outpost was known to be some 10 km away at Závadka. The road-bound armoured cars engaged the Hungarian pocket from the front whilst Slovak infantry worked round their flanks. Soon they forced the heavily outnumbered Hungarians to fall back from Závadka towards their main line on the River Okna/Akna, just in front of Nižná Rybnica.

2021-03-31(A) Jason Wert vs Michael Daschbach Slovakian win
2020-11-18(D) walter mcwilliams vs Tom Kerney Slovakian winThis was over by turn 3 lots of broken hungarian MG, hot Slov dice vs cold hungarian dice and I forgot the Arty on turn 1. Tom's armor was king the each AT gun accounted for one, an MMG stuned an AC forcing recall but then it stalled on its start up die cut rout paths! Over all a disaster for the Hungarians.
2020-11-18(A) Tom Kearney vs Walt McWilliams Slovakian winFun scenario.
2018-12-14(D) Gordon Jupp vs Neil Brunger Hungarian winGame went down to last CC phase (again!) but held out to deny the Slovaks enough buildings, fun game, all the AFV'S were taken out, my FB boxcar ed first strafing attempt and one of my MMG managed to malf on no less than 3 occasions!
2014-06-30(D) Paul Messina vs John Lehman Hungarian win
