441031_01: Counter Punch - PzC 17 Budapest 45

Near Kecskemet, 80km SW of Budapest, October 31st 1944: The 4th Gds Mech Bde had pushed through a hole in the Axis lines with little loss. Now they had a good road out through Kecskemet towards Budapest. They had been told to press on hard, as there were few units, except beaten and disorganized troops, between them and the capital. Unknown to them the Axis had scrambled together a small armored Kampfgruppe, with units from 24 Pz Div and remnants of the Hungarian armor. Their task was to hit the Soviet spearhead and block the road to Budapest. [Size, small] Designer Note: This scenario has been optimized for Soviet Human vs Axis AI.
