Soviet Black Sea Campaign (by DF) - played with AK4K efile v.0.83 and PG2 2.20 exe - completed in May'2010

1. Falciu 1

Before the battle purchased my 5 units army consisting of 3 Motostrelkowy and 2 Mortars. Added Kazaki later during the battle when got some extra prestige.

The battle was just like walk in a park, as all units have only foot transport. Romanian opposition was formed mainly by randomly walking units, not very strong, but one of my infantries was reduced to 1 sp anyway, when assaulting the city. I missed BV by one turn, so it was probably possible to get with more careful planning or slightly different army composition.
From other side, with strictly limited prototypes availability, it's not a big deal not scoring BV here or in any other battle, excluding three marked ones.

Result: V (BV+1)

2. Falciu 2

Before the battle sold Kazaki. Purchased 3x Strelkovy, 25mm Flak and 76,2mm F-22 arty.

The battle was rather intensive, due to big amount of Romanian units presented. They were in aggressive mode, so attacked my position furiously. I tried to withstand initial phase, waiting for opportunity to counterattack. In the meantime was surprised by two hidden VHs, which appeared on the map. Both were rather easily taken with auxiliary bomber support (it was very efficient having Skilled Ground Attack leader). Most difficult part was northern enemy VH capturing, defended by entrenched infantry. I lost one of my units (Motostrelkovy) on its perimeter, after multiple attack of Romanian plane and couple of infantries. Finally took it with my best infantry attack, scoring highly demanded BV with five turns in spare.
Two units got leaders during this battle. Regarding prototype, I cheated a little when got Carrier recon in first shot. Decided to reload and got R-3 SPAD instead. I don't feel guilty, as campaign designer is cheating players as well, switching prototypes off. As only 3 chances for proto are available, I think it's quite fair to reload for some decent unit.
It's only pity that John got such poor reward for his effort (cheapest proto possible) when Gix grabbed top shelf unit (second most expensive available).

Result: BV (-5T) / Proto: YaG 10/76,2mm

3. Kishenev

Before the battle sold Flak. Purchased transports.

Very easy battle. Just walked with my units from the western deployment area directing eastern “exit” VH. Three infantries on foot left quickly behind and made rearguard work.
Auxiliary units placed in northern area acted just as roadblocks, slowing down enemy advance. Anyway, strong Romanian armored division was unstoppable, killing quickly all defenders on its way.
That “exit” VH was taken when reinforcement unit appeared next to it. I attacked with two auxiliaries and my best Motostrelkovy then, blowing up enemy bunker. BV with two turns in spare.

Result: BV (-2T)

4. Odessa 1941

Before the battle upgraded 76,2mm gun to 120mm Mortar and purchased another one the same type.

Definitely this campaign is coming to be Infantry/Mortar General game rather than Panzer General, but I still hoping to buy a tank someday.

Unfortunately, this scenario was just long and boring battle without any interesting point. Just formed defensive positions around Odessa and waited 20 turns till obligatory loss came. Tactic was very deliberated, just remember to provide ammo for your units and wait. I hope this scenario was the single one of that kind in the campaign, as playing such battles is simply waste of time.

Result: L

5. Perekop

Before the battle upgraded small 82mm Mortar to 120mm type and Strelkovy to Motostrelkovy. Purchased Strelkovy.

This battle was nice and refreshing after Odessa boredom. The plan was simple. My infantry, supported by a row of mortars, advanced gradually at whole front capturing scattered objectives. Those big mortars proved to be very useful units - just annihilated all enemies on the way. Got easy BV with three turns in spare and two new leaders for infantries.

Result: BV (-3T)

6. Rostov 41

Before the battle upgraded last small 82mm Mortar to 120mm type.

After some break due to sad circumstances which overwhelmed us here in Poland recently, I'm able to play again, so will try to reduce a gap between me and Gix (I hope he will be busy with Blitz for some time). I think John is out of my range currently.
Gix and DB in their AARs advised to act quickly here, so I tried my best, but wasn't so successful as they were. My core units attacked from the southern deployment area to the north, capturing both Rostov VHs in turn 3 and 4. Groups of auxiliaries attacking form the north captured their closest objectives easily in the same time frame. The only problem occurred on the west, when four auxiliary cavalry units were not able to take the VH defended by deeply entrenched infantry. Only one unit survived, so I must wait for some reinforcements, sending two infantries from the NW area, where battle was (theoretically) won. Before they approached that last enemy VH, German counterattack on the NW objective surprised me. Luckily I had two another infantries close to it, so sent them to help VH defenders. They withstand to the end of battle. When reinforcements arrived I attacked western VH with them and some fighters support. It needed two turns and about six attacks (with two rugged defenses) to clear it finally. Despite some delay, I got still rather comfortable BV in turn 7, and two new leaders for infantry and mortar.
I will visit Kerch next.

Result: BV (-5T)

7. Kerch

Before the battle purchased big gun, temporarily.

It was rather short small scale battle. I landed in three groups: mortar, big gun, SPAD and three infantries (1 aux) on the south, mortar with two infantries (1 aux) in the center and two mortars with four infantries (1 aux) n the north. Terrain was difficult due to forests, so advance wasn't easy, but I managed to take northern VH quickly, then sent some units to the south, when others fought defensive battle against German infantries supported by nasty DF Nebelwerfer. Central VH was captured by small group landed next to it. Afterward they turned to the south directing last enemy VH. It was attacked simultaneously from both directions, north and south, and captured inside the BV limit (with one turn in spare).
Note, that it was important to score BV here, as it's the second of three scenarios with protos allowed. Unfortunately, I didn't get any at once. Of course such occurrence is intolerable (a missing chance for proto, when you have only three of them for almost 30 battles), so I decided to reload till get something. In the fourth try got finally Gixian's small recon, which will be a solid foundation of my armored forces.

Result: BV (-1T) / Proto: BA-64

8. Sevastopol 42

Before the battle sold big gun and purchased fat KV tank, just for fun.

Another defensive battle with obligatory loss, and no fun again. This one was much easier and luckily shorter than previous Odessa, so I was able to finish it relatively fast. I used auxiliaries mainly as obstacles to slow down enemy advance, but withdrawn some better units to Sevastopol perimeter as well. My core formed Sevastopol garrison and waited for enemy avant garde. They didn't shot even once during first 5 turns (the whole battle was 15).
My positions were formed good enough to stop enemies permanently, even before they were able to reach Sevastopol suburbs. Under massive fire of my mortars all attackers were systematically killed just after crossing the river on the east of the city. The rest were stopped on the line of mountains and further to the south, before some small city placed there.
Unfortunately the battle results were unsatisfactory to me, despite the forced loss I didn't get nothing more excepting few experience points. My brand new tank wasn't such effective in this harsh terrain against experienced and OSed German infantry.

Result: L

9. Novorossiysk 1

Before the battle sold expensive KV tank and purchased two cheap T-34 instead. Added new horses with arty and AD as well.

That was rather small scale battle on very limited area, played mainly with my core units, as auxiliaries went late as reinforcements only. I expected that Germans will be fight defensively, so was a little surprised when they came forward to meet my advancing forces.
One small group, consisting of mortar, two Strelkovy and towed AD, was sent along the coast and captured VH on the shore safely inside the BV limit. The rest of my army directed two VHs placed farther to the north in the mountains. Units were split in two columns and advanced gradually, when enemy T-34 attacked creating some chaos. Unfortunately my small recon was overran after initial softening by Stuka. A while later situation was under control, after nasty tank eliminating, so both closer VHs were captured promptly. The last northernmost VH remained, so all my units despite VHs garrisons tried to reach it as soon as possible. After some artillery bombardment it was taken one turn before BV limit (just on time, as some enemy reinforcements appeared around it).

10. Suchumi

Did nothing at HQ before that battle.

Nice small scale battle with limited deployment of my core. I left one tank, 76,2mm gun, small AD and green infantry at HQ. All mortars with one Motostrelkovy and SPAD were placed in the center, two Strelkovy started from the northh, when two Motostrelkovy and tank were deployed on the south. That was my second attempt, as the initial try was stopped just after hidden VH occurrence, when one of my mortars was killed during the enemy turn.

Two Strelkovy from the north were able take and defend the hidden VH with a help of one mortar (which was awarded with a leader during this operation).
The rest of my forces directed my central VH, to help defend it against massive attack of experienced German mountain troops. After couple of turns when many of Germans was destroyed I counterattacked and made breakthrough straight to farthest enemy VH. It was captured in turn 6, with three rounds in spare. That was possible to do only thanks to motorized infantry and I suppose that walking units could have more troubles due expected delays. My tank was useless in this battle – didn't shot once.

11. Ordzhonikidze 1

Before the battle I sold small AD and 76,2mm gun. Purchased 2x 57mm AT and SPAR. Replaced truck for one infantry with best model.

My first attempt was abandoned quickly, as I noted that deployment was not optimal, HQ decisions were not good and I lost one of my mortars.
The second try went much better. I made some changes to my army (as listed above). Knowing that all offensive tasks (3 VHs capturing) must be completed by small forces deployed on the north, I placed fast and mobile units there (both tanks, SPAR, Motostrelkovy with American truck and one Strelkovy to help in VHs defending). The rest were deployed on the east, where IT infantry helped in river crossing. That group must deal with furious German attack.
The plan worked well, as was expected. Eastern group held position on Ordzhonikidze perimeter successfully, killing a lot of attackers and was even able to made some advance to the west smashing all German units on the way.
The northern group took closest VH quickly, but then must fight against some chaotic attacks of German Cavalry and some armored units. Enemy planes were annoying as well, as I was without AD cover there. After some time spent on active defense I was able to take next VH further to the south. Afterward I split my forces, sending one tank with SPAR and fast Motostrelkovy to southernmost enemy VH, when the rest of units was still busy with defending of two previously taken objectives. My fast group reached last objective just on time to take it exactly at the end of BV limit.
I achieved quite good battle result and three new leaders, for infantry, tank and mortar. I must say four mortars with leaders walking hand by hand formed suicide combo here, blowing out all 'soft' enemies on their way. 'Recon' tank proved to be handy as well.

12. Ordzhonikidze 2

Before the battle I replaced truck for the second infantry with best model and OSed some cheap units.

No restarts this time – everything went fine from the start to the end.
On the western front line were located three small deployment zones. In two pairs of deployment hexes on the north and in the middle I placed AT+mortar combos, when in the south one mortar with two infantries were settled. The rest of my forces started from far east deployment area.
Front line units must deal with German attacks, defending their three VHs and waiting for the main forces which were coming from the east. That task was completed successfully, as Germans were not able to break my brave defenders. AT guns performed very well killing several armored units and proved to be very robust opponents for infantry as well. Unfortunately, lack of AD support on the west left my units at the mercy of enemy bomber and fighter. One of mortars was reduced to 1 sp by consecutive attacks. Luckily two auxiliary fighters arrived, so I finally was able to provide some air cover in that area.
Main forces made easy breakthrough killing enemies blocking their way to the west, but soon was obvious that the main opponent will be heavy terrain here. Advance was very slow and I was afraid that BV may be out of my reach. After long journey they joined western line defenders finally, so I started advance towards two German VHs. As enemies were seriously weakened after continuous attacks my assault was quite successful, just enough to clear and capture both German objectives in the last BV turn.
That was the last scenario to win a proto, so I waited with curiosity what will be assigned for me this time. The draw was bad, as I got 43 Strelkovy. Obviously (according my special rules for this campaign) I reloaded for something better and got the same Strelkovy again. In the third try got Katyusha rocket truck, so will go with it.

13. Maikop

Before the battle side-graded BM-31-12 to 5-range 122mm A-19 gun for the price of transport. Purchased 120mm mortar on foot and better truck for last Motostrelkovy.

That was long battle on a huge map. Very long distance to travel for my and auxiliary troops, with rough terrain which slowed down all units excepting tracked ones. That distance together with traffic problems occurred to be main opponent here. Looks like nice small scale battles are over in this campaign.

I deployed my new mortar into single SW deployment hex to help auxiliary Gornostrelky with SW oilfield capturing. It was done promptly, so mortar took a walk to Maikop then. Gornostrelky guarded VH all the battle.
On the right (eastern) flank was deployed 201.RD with one extra Strelkovy borrowed from 150.RD. That group captured eastern oilfield VH and attacked German SE VH behind the river. After crossing it via captured bridge the eastern bank was cleared from enemy infantries and VH captured. Afterward my troops walked long distance along the eastern border of map directing far eastern airfield VH. They didn't meet any opponents till the objective perimeter.
In the biggest south central deployment zone started main part of my forces, 66.FB together with 150.RD. They were split on two task groups. Fast units went to Maikop city with two VHs placed there, when slow units went directly to the north. After Maikop capturing western group directed north and joined back some components of slower group, which captured central VH on the western bank of the river in the meantime. Afterward all units went north as fast as they were able to go.
Thanks to strong auxiliary fighters reinforcements (four planes) and my SPAD I was able to clear the sky of two German planes easily, so they didn't bother my units too much in this battle.
In the 18th turn (last for BV) I had in my hands all VHs excepting an airfield VH on the east and the northernmost VH behind the river. The airfield was captured one turn later and the last, farthest VH, in turn 20, so I got regular Victory two turns outside the BV limit. I've got CS leader early in the battle for my SPAD, so tried to use it intensively.

14. Rostov 43

Before the battle sold 120mm mortar. Purchased T-34 and upgraded both ATs to SU-122.

Another very long battle. I deployed 150.RD in the NE zone to help auxiliaries there, when 201.RD started from middle east area close to German airfield. Most mobile 66.FD with addition of both SPATs joined auxiliaries which started from the SE area.
The battle in northern area started easily, as German VH placed next to deployment area was captured quickly. Afterward my troops must walk long way directing west, when mainly some small obstacles, as mines, were met. The only problem was slowness of my units, where mortars went 2 hexes per turn only.
My forces placed on the southern side of river directed promptly to Rostov. Big and chaotic battle was fought there against strong German armored forces. Luckily I knew about nasty spotting bunker (after reading John's AAR), so wasn't completely surprised by aggressive enemies. Mainly snowy weather helped as well, decreasing spotting range and not allowing Luftwaffe to go into battle. Anyway, one T-34 and one SU-122 were quickly reduced to 1 sp and must be withdrawn from the battle. Other units were seriously worn as well, before the battle south of Rostov was won finally. Afterward I detached small task group to take the objective placed SW from Rostov, when the rest continued assaulting the city. Both task were completed without problems, but at this stage I knew that scoring BV here may be just mission impossible for my army. I tried advance to the west quickly, but when strong German reinforcements (17/16 sp infantries with support of SPAT and Wurfrahmen) appeared among my northern group units (separating more advanced infantry from slowed down mortars) I must stop and turn back to deal with them. That needed couple of turns.
In the 18th turn (last for BV) I had still 3 westernmost VHs to capture. That took several turns and the last one, next to the river, was taken by my units advancing from Rostov in turn 21, so I got regular Victory three turns outside the BV limit. I've got new leader for my SPAT.

15. Novorossiysk 2

Before the battle upgraded all infantries to better 43 version, which already appeared. Reduced amount of motorized units, but was able to upgrade two Motostrelkovy to Gvardeiskaya.

The battle was divided on two separate parts here. On the eastern side of bay was deployed my whole 66.FB plus one infantry and mortar detached from 201.RD. The rest of my core landed on the tip of western peninsula.

The battle on the east went very easy and was ended clearly before the BV limit passed. Anyway, the units of eastern task group weren't able to join battle on the west, as road along sea shore was blocked by 88's and coastal batteries.
On the peninsula auxiliary group landed on its western shore, when my core attacked from the SE bridgehead. Naval infantry took closest western VH promptly, and tried to advance towards the northernmost German VH. In the meantime that group was continuously attacked from the north, along the shore and through the mountains. That caused a lot of losses, so the auxiliary group was seriously weakened (close to total destruction) before the battle ended.
My core group assaulted from its landing area towards two VHs, which were captured just in last BV turn. Unfortunately, I needed some time to walk with my mortars closer to northern VH, which was untouchable without artillery support. German mortar placed behind it decimated brave naval infantry which tried to capture it desperately. When my three mortars came, the rest went quickly, and I scored regular V just two turns outside BV limit.

Result: V (BV+2)

16. Krymskaya

Before the battle only OSed some arties.

This battle wasn't so difficult, comparing to previously played big clashes. I deployed 201.RD in NE zone, 150.RD in the middle east and 66.FB in SE city area. These three groups with some auxiliaries attached attacked directing west.

All of them met well prepared defensive enemy positions on the rivers, just behind bridges. The rivers were impassable, so those bridges acted as real bottlenecks, slowing down my advance. Several turns of regular siege were necessary to break through defenders.
Afterwards my advance went rather nice, despite some terrain obstacles. All VHs but one were captured inside BV limit. Unfortunately the farthest VH on the SW occured to be one turn too far, so I finally missed BV by single turn. V streak continues.
Looks like I used my whole luck or Gixian's curse hit me, as I can not fill the last three leader spots and soon all my units may be over 5-bars.

17. Novorossiysk 3

Before the battle sold T-34/41 and BM-8-24. Purchased T-34/43, BM-8-24 and 2x 43 Strelkovy. Upgraded both SU-122 to SU-85 and downgraded YaG-10/76,2 to M15 SPAD on halftrack. New units were available with 225 initial experience, so I decided to replace my newest tank with better model, losing one bar. Replaced 14 sp 5-bars Katyusha with the same new unit, to gain OS prestige back and have new chances for a leader on it. Replaced wheeled SPAD with smaller one – shorter shot range but more mobile.

Deployed 150.RD (excepting SU-85) on peninsula with a task to help auxiliary paratroopers there. The second infantry division, 201.RD, was located in the central eastern deployment zone, with a plan to attack straight to the north. Finally my guards division, 66.GTD (with SU-85 of 150.RD), was deployed on the shore, with a task to attack along it directing Novorossiysk.

Due to difficult mountain terrain all operations went slowly here, frequently hex by hex. Several hard battles were fought in the mountain with experienced German infantry (some mountain type as well). They were extremely hard to destroy, e.g. one Jeager unit with leader on 2sp and without ammo withstood at least 5 turns of multiple attacks (by 3 infantries, 152mm gun and bombers) not loosing single point of strength.
The western peninsula was cleared of enemies and VH on its western shore captured many turns before BV limit. My units were sent to help in Novorossiysk assault when situation was under control there, so they attacked main city from the south.
My infantry group (core 201. with some auxiliaries) captured the first VH on the east quickly, after nice walk in between rows of 88s, but luckily those AT guns weren't effective against soft targets, especially under fire of my mortars. Afterward I detached small group to take the last eastern VH when the rest turned to the west and went along the road to Novorossiysk. They were just on time to participate in final attack there.
My guards division fought hardest battle on Novorossiysk perimeter by many turns, killing enemies gradually. The city was finally taken in turn 14, opening the way to the last VHs which were not captured yet, both in NW corner on N & W edges of map. I took the western one in the last BV turn, but couldn't take the second one, on the north, due to lack of ammo of my attacking units. Needed one more turn to smash last defender, so the battle was ended in turn 19 and regular V was scored, which seems to be my common result recently. My second SPAT got very popular RM leader.

18. Taman

Before the battle did nothing saving prestige for later.

This was battle with a lot of bottlenecks, starting from deployment phase. In five hexes in the NE I placed my 150.RD (without SPAT). The rest must start from supply hexes in the SE area, which allowed to place only two units at the time, so it was a little tricky to put your units in the right order.
The battle wasn't difficult considering enemy opposition, and main problems were created by difficult terrain and shape of peninsula shoreline, which created bottlenecks causing heavy traffic for my massed forces. Of course Dennis helped as well, adding bunkers (some stacked) and minefields. Anyway, battle went quite nice and I took all VHs on the south three turns before BV limit, and the last Romanian VH on the north was captured two turns later. Finally streak is over.
Note: Placing German He-219 bomber was cruel idea, as with its current stats like HA-7/SA-4/AA-28 and GD-19/AD-18 it was practically indestructible (even with 3 auxiliary fighters), and having high ammo load it hammered my units by whole scenario. Luckily couple of rainy turns gave me some cover of it.

19. Odessa 44

Before the battle upgraded 2 tanks to T-34/85. Purchased M5 recon later in the battle.

OK, this one was nice Blitz type operation, where speed is important. I deployed my 150.RD in the eastern area, and it advanced directing Odessa from the east. My fast division started from the north and advanced straight to the south in two separate columns. My 201.RD started from the north as well, but went different way, making flanking maneuver first to the west and after breaking some resistance there directed to the northernmost VH attacking it from the north.
The plan worked good and after quick capturing of Odessa I split my forces on three groups which were sent in three directions to take farther objectives. The last one was taken two turns before BV limit. Definitely it was much easier comparing to previously fought serious battles, and done practically with core only.

Result: BV (-2T)

20. Sevastopol 44

Before the battle purchased new T-34/85 tank and another M5 recon.

This scenario was typical all out attack battle, with my units coming from three sides of world and directing one aim, which was Sevastopol fortress. I deployed my infantry divisions on the south, and my fast divisions on the north. Together with numerous auxiliaries they assaulted gradually enemy positions, which consisted of deeply entrenched and anchored units. As I said many times, the weakness of such defensive setup is lack of mobility, so when I managed to do couple of breakthroughs in enemy lines, I just passed remaining defenders allowing them to act as spectators to the end of battle.
150.RD, coming from SW deployment zone, went all the way along seashore and ended capturing an airfield VH on the west from Sevastopol. 201.RD started from the SE, crossed a river and made breakthrough in defensive line there. Next it forced mountains and captured VH in the central valley. Both tank divisions forced northern defending lines and attacked Sevastopol via eastern bridge. The city was captured during couple of turns, and the last VH exactly in the last BV turn. In the same turn 150.RD took mentioned airfield, so another BV was achieved.

21. Jassy

Before the battle sold both recons. Purchased new M15 SPAD and upgraded T-34/43 to T-34/85. OSed some units.

I was afraid of this battle after reading John's AAR, but finally must give it a try. I must restart it after 5 turns, as played too aggressively with my armored units and lost two core tanks.
This was intensive but interesting battle, where enemy units attacked furiously from the beginning. In addition careful units placement was needed all the time, as AI knows everything about your moves thanks to all-map range radar, so it can exploit each weakness you have. It's necessary to use different tactics at the beginning and later in scenario.

Deployment was simple, as available options are very limited. Only six deployment hexes were spread on Jassy perimeter, so I put my slow Strelkovy in those spots. The rest of my core went from SH placed on the east.
I decided to form defensive position on the city perimeter on the north and west, but on the south moved defensive line further, using forest and escarpments placed there as support points. I retreated some low entrenched auxiliaries to better defensive positions or even to the Jassy. Anyway, some better entrenched units left to slow down expected enemy advance. The time was needed for my units going from the east, as mortars could reach the Jassy fortress no sooner than in third turn. Obviously I lost my three external VHs quickly, but it was unavoidable.

The plan worked well, as defensive setup with mortars in the center (grouped around CS SPAD) was very solid and no enemy could do any damage for defenders. I used may tanks and SPATs for sudden breaks in order to destroy weakened enemy units (did it more cautious after lesson learned). Especially my RM units were very useful, as they could use sneak, shot and run tactic. That crazy German and Rumanian attack lasted several turns, but finally I noted that it eventually slowing down.
About 11th turn I decided to switch my tactic and counterattacked. Remaining enemy units were killed without bigger problems, the I recaptured my 3 previously given VHs. Later directed my forces divided on three groups farther to remaining enemy VHs, one on the south and two on the west. Approach to those objectives wasn't easy, as Dennis placed bunch of 88s with some entrenched infantry all around the way. Despite those obstacles, I managed to take all VHs one by one. The first was southern one, and the last was NW objective, which was captured just on time, in the last BV turn.

22. Falciu 3

Before the battle did nothing, saving prestige for later.

That was definitely small scale battle, considering the map size and units amount. Limited deployment allowed to use only 10 units, which started on the north, close to Rumanian airfield. I deployed 4 mortars, 5 infantries and best tank.

Auxiliaries, which started from the east, took all three VHs on their way, the city, airfield and the bridge. That bridge VH was taken in the last BV turn. That group must deal with enemy units which attacked them from the NE, some units were lost but objectives were held to the end.
My core units started on the north and directed south, taking Rumanian airfield by the way. Some enemy mountain infantry appeared, so I detached small task force to defend starting area, where my initial VH was placed. The rest went farther directing two German VHs on the west edge of map. Due to difficult terrain and some entrenched defenders I was not able to reach them inside the BV limit - that was out of question (perhaps some mountain movement units could help). Both objectives were taken in turn 8, that means I missed BV by two turns and scored regular Victory.

23. Bucharest

Before the battle did nothing - no interesting options at HQ.

Only phased deployment on eastern SH was possible, so must place units there gradually. Captured two closest VH by the way in the first turn.
Since the beginning weak auxiliaries in the Bucharest city were in danger, as they must try to survive till my forces from the east come. Initially they captured additional VH in the city and cleared area killing some weak axis Rumanian units, but later some strong German units came to the city and made a lot of havoc, destroying all buildings there and capturing one of VHs. Luckily remaining two objectives were kept till my core forces reached Bucharest.
My forces going to Bucharest met few defenders and some annoying obstacles as minefields and 88s on the way. Interesting air battle were fought, when my two fighters (7 and 8 strength) met 5 sp Brandenburger flying in Ju-52. Battle odds were 2:0 for both attackers and no damage was done to flying infantry, when my fighters lost couple of points. Luckily I was able to kill that monster unit when landed. Later, after clearing whole Bucharest, I spread my forces and sent one group to SW and one to NW objectives. Very soon was obvious that no chance for BV here, and even V was not easy to score. Slowly I approached and took both westernmost VHs, NW a little earlier, but SW with some sort of luck only in the last V turn.

24. Torda Pass

Before the battle max. OSed all artillery and SPADs.

I deployed two infantries and mortar on the east and the rest in the southern deployment hexes.
Assault on the right flank went pretty easy, as fast breakthrough was made there and closest VH captured. I sent there both SU-85s from the center as well, they joined that group in 3rd turn. Later that eastern group captured next VH slightly to the center, and then NE objective clearly before the BV limit.
In the middle Hungarian defensive positions were much stronger and longer assault was needed. It was necessary to knock-out three enemy arties placed around Torda city. That was done by my tanks, and allowed to do direct assault of enemy VHs afterward. All three objectives behind the river, including Torda, were taken easily due to strong fire of my artillery. Next I detached small task force of two Guards, Katyusha and SPAD, with a task to capture both VHs on the west. The rest must fight with strong German panzer division, which attacked surprisingly from the north, with quite nasty attack planning (later I saw that it was guided by HQ spotting bunker). That battle in the center wasn't easy, as enemy attack found my units with very low ammo load, what caused some unexpected losses at the beginning. Later situation was clarified by several overruns prepared by air and artillery bombardment. Northern VH was taken, after initial nasty HQ sweeping, in the last BV turn (could be earlier, but I waited for the western group and hunted for some cats in the meantime). The western task group wasn't able to clear and take the last objective earlier than the BV limit came, but luckily they succeed in the last moment.

25. Debrecen 1

Before the battle did nothing, having 9 pp to spent.

It was very easy battle with simple plan, just go on whole front length, straight to the north, and capture all objectives one by one. Some mines, many entrenched infantry units and couple of arties or AT guns made this battle just like walk in a park, as most of them were very static. They just waited in place till my units came, and only two recons that appeared surprisingly in NE zone made some problems when attacked together my Katyusha, so I lost all OS points on it. Last VH was captured exactly in the last BV turn.

26. Debrecen 2

Before the battle did nothing.

I was expected very hard battle, after John's warning, and knowing that another all-spotting bunker is used here. Deployment was limited to 22 units, no SH here, but it suited to my army size.
I decided to form my defensive position in area inside a triangle formed by three VHs on the north, leaving the rest of objectives (excepting the southernmost guarded by bunker) empty for expecting enemy advance. I withdrew auxiliaries from them towards my core positions. After initial withdrawal I held my position for short time, killing some strong German tanks with combined attacks, but very soon I started to move my southern front line gradually to the south. I left two infantries, AT gun and arty for northernmost city VH defending, when the rest formed strong armored contingent supported by arties and infantry, which was sweeping all enemies on its way gradually. I tried to use overruns intensively after softening enemy targets by artillery bombardment.

Auxiliaries, which appeared on the south, were busy with the southernmost VH defending against massive enemy assault practically to the end of battle, so they didn't help with achieving another aims. Important job was done by auxiliary planes, which allowed me to clear the sky of five enemy planes (3 bombers and 2 fighters) before they managed to do any serious damage to my core units (excepting some OS on my mortar).

My forces attacking from the north captured all German VHs rather easy. I used my CS SPAD intensively in all possible situations for support arties or assaulting infantry. The last one was taken one turn before the BV limit. I think the combination of good quality armored units with strong artillery contingent was the key here.

27. Race to Budapest

Before the battle only OSed two mortars.

That battle was big and tiresome, due to very huge map, big distance to travel, plenty of objectives to take and countless of auxiliary units to move.
My units, deployed in SE area, were like a drop in a ocean here, placed in between big groups of auxiliary units which started on the southern and on the eastern edges of map. All groups directed Budapest, forming couple of columns which traveled along different routes, with several VHs on each of them.

My core with some auxies attacked closest bigger city of Kecskemet first. The task wasn't easy, as perimeter was covered by overlapping artillery, which thoroughly mauled infantry trying to attack. I tried flanking maneuver with armored units to eliminate those nasty guns, which was done finally, but in the meantime an unexpected battle with strong German Panzer group consisting of DF King Tiger and some PzJag IV70 was fought. As a result of it, three of my core tanks were knocked out and must be withdrawn on strength 2 or 1 deep beyond the line of action. Luckily I had some auxiliary tanks provided as reinforcements.
Anyway, my advance on the whole front continued and objectives were captured one by one. After breaking through the first well prepared defensive positions the job was slightly easier till the end phase, when strong enemy reinforcements appeared and caused some troubles. In the last BV turn I was in position for final assault, but still three northernmost objectives were in enemy hands. It was obvious, that only with very good planning and some sort of luck desired BV may be achieved, but it still looked doable, so I decided to go for it. To have possibility of plan changing and using different approach in a case of fault, I saved initial position for that turn, and made my first attempt to win. It ended with the northern VH missed and my attacking infantry badly damaged (VH was only in one arty range, so couldn't be softened properly). The same came in the next attempt. Finally, in the third try, I found good combination of all units attack, together with use of two IL bombers, and was able to force retreat of stubborn defender of northernmost VH. That gave me last turn BV.

28. Siege of Budapest

Before the battle OSed all arties and infantry maximally, and purchased one mortar for the rest of prestige.

I divided my army on two equal parts and deployed one in the northern and the second one in the southern deployment areas.
This final battle was very easy for my strong army supported by bunch of auxiliaries, just continuous city assault with fighting against massive enemy entrenchments supported by couple of arties and big R-4 AD guns. I went without special plan – just gradually tightened the ring around the city capturing objectives. The battle was over in turn 9, that means BV four turns before limit.

The war is over. My army just before last VH taking is shown below.

Result: BV (-4T)
