Overview:

The Lake Balaton offensive, code named FRUHLINGSERWACHEN (Spring Awakening) began on 6 March. The “Hitlerjugend” division launched its part of the attack at 0400. The first day was disappointing as the division made little progress against the Soviet 26th Army. On 7 March, the Germans attacked again. SS-Panzergrenadier-Regiment 25 attacked Fekete-Puszta, but gained very little ground before being stopped by heavy resistance. SS-Panzergrenadier-Regiment 26 made much better progress in its attack since it was supported by a panzer battalion and part of a self-propelled gun battalion. Its Bataillon II advanced further south but was stalled on the outskirts of Aranyos-Puszta. The Soviets launched a number of counterattacks, especially against the German right flank, but tanks and three Grille self-propelled guns supported the defense.
Attacker: German (SS) (Bataillon II, SS-Panzergrenadier-Regiment 26, SS-Panzer-Division 12 "Hitlerjugend")
Defender: Russian (26th Army)

2021-05-04(A) David Garvin vs Blake Ball Russian winFor CASLO XXV
2021-03-03(D) wayne baumber vs Russian winGood scenario, our game became slightly one sided when the Germans lost two Panthers in GT2 to side shots from hidden guns. The Crickets when they arrived did cause considerable casualties before being destroyed by the third ART at long range.
2020-06-18(D) Pascal Boileau vs Todd Hively German (SS) winAn excellent scenario played with a very nice opponent. Despite being covered in mud, the German troops of Todd were very effective against my brave Russian units.
The panthers devastated the Russian armored reinforcements and I was nailed to the end. Well played Todd and many thanks for the lessons !
2020-04-07(A) Rob MacGinley vs Bob Zinselmeyer Russian winYou have to get into town quick and establish traps
The Large gun wagons at the end were useless when there are no help from panthers
2020-03-15(D) Jason Wert vs David Langer Russian win
