Overview:

Nestled in the picturesque Hron Valley, the communication center of Telgart was a key objective for the uprising in central Slovakia. As the insurgency gained successes in the center, both the Slovak regular forces and partisan groups gained confidence. Experienced officers and NCOs were in short supply all over, but one leader stood out on the Slovak side. Former French Legionnaire Captain Jan Stefanik was a reported authoritarian, but also personally fearless. On 5 September, he led his two battalions and company of light tanks in an attack on Telgart, hoping to capture the city and link up with the advancing Red Army.

2021-05-02(D) walter mcwilliams vs Tom Kerney German winTom and I took a break from play testing to engage in this short fight. It was a horrid display of shooting by both sides, but the German's managed to keep it together long enough for the win. Tom chose VC option 3, Overall a good scenario on the wonderful board 68. Recommended!
2021-04-04(D) Andy Bagley vs Hans Bugge German winMy second playing of this scenario, and more successful this time thanks to an improved defensive setup, a good dose of luck and some over-aggressive Slovaks. My opponent went for VC#3, delaying the partisan entry, and tried some risky CX runs with stacked infantry on turn 1. Unfortunately this ran into a couple of HIP HSs and they took serious losses. Although the Slovaks made steady progress from there, they continued to take losses, and despite lots of VBM freezes and close-range shooting with their tanks, they never had enough force to take the buildings they needed.
2021-03-26(D) Øyvind Jacobsen Bjørkås vs Mikko Slovak / Partisan winThe Rebels went for VC#1, flanking the village on the hill with their partisans while assaulting the village mainly from the left with their Slovak forces. One of the tanks brew up early, Melvin the tank held out to the endgame but only inflicted one moral check in the entire game, and Tuomo the tank had a little bit of effect. The Slovaks managed to get a 447+10-2 into the back VC building in their next to last turn. Very fun game!
2021-03-17(A) Øyvind Jacobsen Bjørkås vs Neil Brunger German winI went for VC #3, trying to take the two closest buildings. A very bloody game followed, in which I managed to take one of the buildings, and would have taken the other building in the last CC if my wounded 10-2 + 1-3-7 + 3-3-7 could have eliminated a 447 and survived. It was not to be. Very fun and challenging scenario. :)
