FB14

FB14 is the first “official” three-player scenarios. One player plays the Germans, and the second player plays the Soviets. However, the third player plays the Hungarians that are fighting along BOTH sides. The scenario thus has four player turns (German, Soviet, German-allied Hungarian, Soviet-allied Hungarian) for each game turn, though two player turns are in fact done by one person.

Budapest, Hungary

The Siege of Budapest or Battle of Budapest was the 50-day-long encirclement by Soviet and Romanian forces of the Hungarian capital of Budapest, near the end of World War II. Part of the broader Budapest Offensive, the siege began when Budapest, defended by Hungarian and German troops, was first encircled on 26 December 1944 by the Red Army and the Romanian Army. During the siege, about 38,000 civilians died through starvation or military action. The city unconditionally surrendered on 13 February 1945. It was a strategic victory for the Allies in their push towards Berlin.
