As the last battle of Round 5 wraps up, I thought I would go ahead and start a Round 6 thread.
The situation at start of Round 6 will be as shown below, but with resolution of the battle at Buda Hills. The current map shows that square as still being contested. A German loss in Round 5 means that Rounds 6 and 7 would see the Germans trying to fight to a campaign draw, at best. A German victory in Round 5 means a Round 6 Meeting Engagement battle that could end in German victory or go on to Round 7.
Unfortunately for everyone else, the campaign is basically in @Drifter Man / @Spoogles and @Cargol / @Bleskaceq 's hands. The other tracks/battles cannot really affect the outcome other than to soak up reinforcements that could otherwise be used on the Gerecse track. I have maps ready to go for the other 4 battles, which should be a Meeting Engagement at Dorog, and German Attacks at Csakvar, Osi, and Balatonfokajar. I totally understand after so many months if someone doesn't want to finish out these battles - you would be doing it for fun or revenge or...is honor a thing
? Please let me know if you want to skip out. You will still get a ribbon at the end. If we have departures, I will work to assign replacements or, failing that, will consolidate tracks down to battles I can staff.
Both sides will be replenished with 2 Battalions' worth of reserves. These are entering per the schedule in the rules.
Germany will need to use 1 of its 2 reserve moves to place a Reserve on the Puszta track.
Note: If the campaign goes to Round 7, the Soviets commander @Bleskaceq gets to pick the Soviet player assignments.
It's late, so I may have missed some possible outcome. I'm sure someone will let me know.
