BATTLEGROUP: Spring Awakening

BATTLEGROUP: Spring Awakening
by Kinrade, Warwick

1-1992912

HUNGARY, 1945: The Red Army invaded and pushed the Axis forces west, driving them beyond the Danube river. Budapest is under siege, with its garrison is trapped and fighting a desperate battle. To save them and secure the borders of the Reich, the Axis armies launch three relief operations. Unable to break through, a larger offensive with the last of the panzer divisions is planned for the spring. Operation Spring Awakening will try to drive the Red Army back over the Danube and secure Germany's remaining oil supply; without it, the war will be over.

* BACKGROUND: A general overview of the war in Hungary in 1945, viewed by the Germans as their priority front line. From the siege of Budapest, through relief Operations Konrad I, II, and III, to Operation Spring Awakening and the large Russian counter-offensive that would drive Russian tanks all the way to Vienna.

* ARMY LIST: Designed to be used with the Russian army lists already published in Battlegroup Fall of the Reich, this book contains two new army lists, for the last German panzer divisions and the Hungarian army, as well as alterations to the Russian Fall of the Reich army lists, to better recreate the battles in Hungary in the winter and spring of 1945.

* SPECIAL RULES: New special rules to adapt the core Battlegroup game to the Hungarian battlefields of 1945. The special rules recreate the character of the armored clash, with the last of Germany's panzer forces, SS, and Heer, aided by their rather unreliable Hungarian allies, to face the powerful Russian Tank Corps. All take place in the winter snows and spring thaw mudbath, in the largest clash of late-war heavy armor. This book requires Battlegroup Fall of the Reich to use in full, including its Battle Rating counters.

* CAMPAIGN Six new historical scenarios in a detailed narrative campaign for 1st SS Panzer Division's hard-fought assault along the Sarviz canal during Operation Spring Awakening.

PLEASE NOTE: This is a campaign supplement and a copy of the Ruleset hard back book and Fall of the Reich pdf will be needed to play.
