70Km west of Budapest along the Danube River, December 31st 1944: The original Konrad I attack was launched without either of the two primary SS Pz Divisions at full strength. SS Tok hardly had a full PzG Regiment at the start line and SS Wiking was missing over 50 Panzer including a large number of Panther tanks that were enroute by rail. These units arrived in bits and pieces over the first days of the battle with the 711. VG Division making its way to the front on 2 January. By that time the Soviets were already reacting to the attack and one can only wonder WHAT IF events had of conspired to make these three divisions fully available at the start line when the attack began. Would the Germans have had enough power to make the first strike for Budapest the only one they would need? [Size, large] Designer Note: This scenario has been optimized for Axis Human vs Soviet AI.
