Overview:

Slovakia and Poland has disputed border territories following WWI, which led to continued tension between the two countries. The Slovaks allowed German forces to stage in Slovakia for the coming invasion. The Slovak Army mobilized on 26 August, and three of its divisions were incorporated into the German Fourteenth Army. The Slovak units were ordered to attack and protect the east flank of the Fourteenth Army. Standing in front of them were weak elements of the 1st Regiment, Border Defense Corps, having moved from the border with Russia to counter the pending threat.

2025-05-01(A) manzoli andrea vs Savo Barbero Polish win
2025-04-24(A) manzoli andrea vs andrea noia Polish win
2025-04-24(D) Andrea Noia vs Andrea Manzoli Polish win3 hrsSlovak player unsuccessfully tried to conquer the hill across the dry river - but was repeatedly brought down by some good shots from the other hill. Only the Slovak mortar managed to break the resistance, but broke down at half-game. Machine guns nests are nasty and inflict a lot of losses to both sides. Remember that breakdown is 12, not 11 - due to the good equipements in MMG and HMG of both sides. Slovak conceded at the last turn, unable to conquer more than a few victory points - Polish ended up with only 3 unbroken squads
2025-02-06(D) Peter Albrechtsen vs David Slovak win4 hrs
2025-01-06(A) Jon Jaramillo vs Brett Snyder Slovak win4 hrsI setup the mortar and MGs on level three and luckily got results against my opponent on turn 1. I set up a 3 prong Slovak attack going edges and middle. It took about 3 turns, but the Slovaks eventually got a foothold in all three areas and when they did the Poles wilted pretty quickly. Although my opponent played it out until the bitter end (I ended up with 19 VC locations out of 20), it became pretty obvious by turn 5 that the Slovaks were going to get a victory. Fun scenario, looks a bit tough on the Slovaks at first but then you realize that a lot of the Polish defense is just smoke and mirrors.
