*This has Slovak verses Hungarian troops and a armor4ed train to boot. Both sides have a low 7/5 morale, the Hungarians defend but the Slovaks have about 9 more infantry types, better tanks, a train, air-power and better off board artillery.

*I split my Slovak forces into two groups, one group to attack the towns on map 17 and the other group the attack the town on map 1. The attack on the town hexes on the entry map 17 takes more time than I thought it would and costs me more units than I thought it would as well but the Hungarians are finally forced out of it. However they have setup some ambushes in the woods for the Slovaks on the way to the town hexes on map 1, as the Slovaks try two reinforce their second group. Morale for both sides is tough and the battle swings back and forth as units recover. The Hungarian loss their Hadnagy leader with a 1-11-1 value which hurts more than any unit loss! They also loss both platoons of weak L35, as the Slovak LT35’s and Armored train are much better units with AT values. Both sides lose infantry units with the Hungarians losing more but the Slovaks lose a step of LT35s to a 37mm AT gun.

*The Slovaks control more point values in towns controlled and more enemy steps eliminated but lose 10 point for not controlling all the rail-line, thus the Slovaks fall short of a major victory but achieve a Minor Victory in a hard fought Slovak victory.

*A crazy 1939 battle but fun and unique as well.
