Operation Konrad I
« on: September 23, 2023, 12:21:47 AM »
We had club meet up lately with participant game of german counterattack toward Budapest in January 1945.
Here are so,me photos from this rarely played battle.


Szomor and two hills behind it - German target.


Beautifull Szomor church one of our clubmates build for the game


Look from German positions


And from Russian positions.


German push towards the city



Russian reinforcements


Push of SS panzers



House to house combat


Final German push capturing the city but failing with push against the hills.

Despite bloodbath of Russians


Result was historical stealmate after German armored forces were spent

Great success, and best looking game we fought to date.
Next year is being debated between Konrad II or something in 44.

Few more photos (including cute doggie)on my blog
