New Huge CMBB H2H Battle: Kalvin Square, Pest

[KG_Jag]

Especially for you fans of monster Eastern Front historical/semi-historical battles, a new 55 turns, huge map and 20,000 point monster has just been released a SD II by Bannon DC. Here's the author's briefing:

"This one MUST be played BLIND if playing 2-player.

The siege of Budapest has witnessed intense, non-stop street fighting. The routine has been attack and counter-attack. As the Germans and Hungarians have fewer and fewer men to hold the line, the fighting on the Pest side of the Danube River is reaching its conclusion. As of January 16, the Axis forces are within a few blocks of the river and two battered bridges are the last connections between Pest and Buda. For the units fighting near Kalvin Square, Erzsebet Bridge is a vital link to reinforcements... and eventual retreat.

Fighting over the last two days south of Kalvin Square along Üllöi Ave has exposed the Axis flank forcing a withdraw. A new defensive line is being established at Muzeum Blvd.

The Soviets are preparing to continue the advance with the goal of capturing a bridge intact or cut of the retreat of as many Axis forces as possible.

Overlooking the Pest battlefield from across the Danube is the citadel atop of Gellert Hegy. In stark contract to Pest with its flat terrain, Buda is hilly and rugged and has been a natural stronghold against numerous invasions through the centuries. During this invasion, commanders look down on Pest through binoculars and call in artillery on the enemy below.

Map, battle lines are historically accurate. OOB is guesswork. Suggest playing H2H if possible, if not, Axis vs AI with modifications as suggested in the brief."
