    Alternate offensive in Hungary 1945

    Unfortunately not. We played terribly and the Scots deserved to win - ground out through clenched teeth. Well like say your talking about the southern 2nd of Operation Konrad. The table mentions for the Soviets two corps, 20th Guard and 7th Mech and 2 Div, 93rd Rifle and 63rd Cav. Looking...
