Axis - Hungarian 2nd Army (and 2nd Corps)

[SaSTrooP]

ARANYOS-VONAL HATATORVAR
Aranyos Line Szekler Border Guard Units

This „formation” encompasses static border guard defensive positions erected by the Hungarians on the border with Romania from 1941 onwards. Each such „fortress” was manned by roughly a 200-man comapny strength and it was supplemented with bunkers with overlapping fire. Comparatively, one völgyzár (thats the name of defensive sector) manned by such company was the territorial equivalent of entire french fortress division on the Maginot Line. This however applies mostly to the Arpad Line. The supportive Aranyos Line was constucted hastily and was much weaker underbelly near the Arpad Line itself. Still, its positions greatly supported the Hungarians in later stages of the fight at Turda. Arpad and Aranyos Lines remain the most effective field fortifications of World War 2, surpassing even the effectiveness of the Mannerheim Line in Finland, with 543 dead Russian attackers for a each single Hungarian border guardsman.
NOTE: Special rules apply to the units of Volgyzars. They are static and can never advance along the main force. Regardless of any outcome, they can never be bombed by bombers or artillery or suffer any negative effects from outer „elements” in the campaign. They always fight in defence mode with additional 200pts of fortifications. If this unit looses a battle it takes part in, it is destroyed. However, as long as Volgyzar is in combat, minor victory for the attacked is considered a draw, thus the front line is not moved.
