Overview:

The men of SS-Kavallerie-Division 8 “Florian Geyer” were scrambling for their lives as two and a half months of near continuous fighting had reduced the unit to a shadow of its former self. By 3 February, the troops which had been holding out for the last month along the heights of the Kis-Svábhegy and among the crypts and headstones of the Farkasréti temeto began their inevitable retreat, ultimately, the base of the Várhegy.
Attacker: Russian (320th Rifle Division and 3rd Tank Brigade, 23rd Tank Corps)
Defender: German (SS) / Hungarian (SS-Kavallerie-Regiment 16, SS-Kavallerie-Division 8 "Florian Geyer", 12th SS-Polizei-Panzer-Kompanie, SS-Polizei-Division 4, and Hungarian 10th Infantry Division and "Gruppe" Billnitzer)

2025-04-09(A) Kevin Duval vs Dwayne DuvalD Russian winRussian deception was the only way to victory. Had opponent convinced I was after VC #2 when #3 was what I needed. German defenses were still solid in last two turns but shifting units to cover the ruse opened my only opportunity to sweep Russians around the flanks to steal a sneaky win.
