Overview:

The grenadiers of SS Kampfgruppe Hanke were fighting for their lives in the village of St. Marton, Hungary. Despite Russian pressure, Kampfgruppe Hanke was holding its position. The Russians, weary of direct attacks, separated out faster, lightly armored units and sent them in a double pincer movement around St. Marton. Their objective was a stone bridge southwest of St. Marton. If the Russians could seize this bridge, they would effectively surround Kampfgruppe Hanke and force either its surrender or destruction. Unbeknownst to the Russians, forward elements of the 118th Gebirgsjäger Regiment had already set up a defense at the critical bridge in a effort to hold open an escape route for Kampfgruppe Hanke.
Attacker: Russian (7th Guards Army)

2026-10-22(D) Kermit Mullins vs Connor Mullins Russian win2 hrsEnjoyable scenario. Not always certain my designs will play well, but this one went down to the final German Close Combat. Both side were shredded...18 CVP inflicted on the Germans and 12 CVP inflicted on the Russians. Both SU-76's knocked out by Panzerfausts...but each shot casualty reduced the squad firing the Panzerfausts. The AT gun immobilized and SU-85 and a Panzerfaust took down the other SU-85. All of the trucks were destroyed. The VASL dice bot provided enough critical hits for both sides to make it a fun back and forth. The immobilized SU-85 would get the game winning break on the Germans beside the bridge and that allowed the Russians to move freely onto the bridge. The Germans tried to recover one of the bridge hexes on the final turn and a 2-4-8 made int into CC with the Russian 9-1 and a 5-2-7...but would be KIA'd in the close combat. Fun game. My son got his first win in our VASL series.
