Overview:

Now it was Yugoslavia's turn to be in the center of the German blitzkrieg. Operation "Merita" had begun and the country was attacked on all sides. As Hungarian "Group Sandor" advanced through abandoned Yugoslavian positions, it was ordered to push ahead and seize the town of Szenttanas. Retreating Yugoslavian forces were moving across a river bridge into the fortified town. Close on their heels were two Hungarian Csaba armored cars. .
Attacker: Yugoslavian ("Potiska" Division)

2020-11-25(D) Vilis Pavulans vs Matt Velazquez Hungarian winInteresting scenario. Maybe a bit spread out defence which allowed for a focused hungarian assault but the main issue for the yugoslavs was that their commander rolled like a suicidal maniac. 3 rally boxcars and a few boxcar MCs and when he finally rolled snakes, it was on a MC which gave Heat of Battle, causing yet another break and disruption. The Hungarians could more or less have a nice swim in the river before walking into the victory area picking up yugoslav weapons.
2020-06-01(D) Shane Pask vs Yugoslavian winDice were against me. 3 cavalry squads drowned crossing the river, the sniper took out all 3 L3 tankettes (stun/recall) and the 8-1 leader. One Csaba was burnt by MMG, other Csaba KOd first turn by AT. One truck was destroyed by MMG after unhooking gun, then crew broken at long range. Other gun didn't last long enough to unhook. All 3 Toldis broke armament, FT out on first shot, MMG and LMG malf. I conceded on Turn 7.
