Hungarian Manors

Obuda, Hangary, December 27, 1944: After the Soviet 2nd and 3rd Ukranian Fronts had encircled 
Budapest on the 25th, the tempo of the fighting in Buda had increased. Both sides fed units 
piecemeal into the battles developing in the hills surrounding Buda. Units of the 8th SS found 
themselves engaged in a fierce, often hand to hand battle to prevent the Soviets from occupying 
all of the strategic high ground North and West of Buda.

Game Length: 7 turns

Aftermath: The Soviets stormed up hills, attempting to force the Germans from their defensive 
positions, while Soviet and German tanks stalked each other in the narrow streets below. These 
battles would go on for almost the entire seige. Only when the defenders ran out of ammunition 
would they vacate their hilltop villas which, during the see-saw battles, had been reduced to 
rubble heaps.
