Battlegroup: Spring Awakening PSC BGK032

The Red Army has invaded and pushed the Axis forces to the west, carrying them beyond the Danube River. Budapest is under siege, its garrison trapped and fighting a desperate battle. To save them and secure the Reich's borders, the Axis armies launch three relief operations. Unable to break through, a larger offense is planned for the spring. Using the last of Panzer's divisions, Operation Spring Awakening will attempt to lead the Red Army back over the Danube and secure Germany's remaining oil supply; without him, the war will end.

• BACKGROUND An overview of the war in Hungary in 1945, considered by the Germans as their first priority line. From the siege of Budapest, through relief operations Konrad I, II and III, to Operation Spring Awakening and the great Russian counteroffensive that would bring Russian tanks to Vienna.
• Army LIST Designed to be used with the Russian army lists already published in Battlegroup Fall of the Reich, this book contains two new army lists, for the latest German panzer divisions and the Hungarian army, as well as modifications to the lists of the army of the Russian fall of the Reich, to better recreate the battles in Hungary in the winter and spring of 1945.
• SPECIAL RULES New special rules to adapt the basic Battlegroup game to the Hungarian battlefields of 1945. Special rules recreate the character of the armored clash, with the last German panzer forces, SS and Heer, aided by their rather unreliable Hungarian allies , to face the mighty Russian Tank Corps. They all take place in the winter snows and spring thaw mud bath, in the greatest heavy armor clash of the last war. This book requires that the Reich's fall from the battle group be used in its entirety, including its battle rating counters.
• CAMPAIGN Six new historical settings in a detailed narrative campaign for the heavy assault of the SS Panzer First Division along the Sárviz Canal during Operation Spring Awakening.
