Soviet armies began their offensive to isolate the Hungarian capital of Budapest in October 1944. The city would be surrounded in December. During that time, as German and Hungarian troops fought to keep the Soviets from completing the encirclement, fighting stubborn defensive actions backed by repeated counter-attacks.

Fire & Sword: Battles for Hungary 1944 is a complete Panzer Grenadier game based on the Soviet effort to encircle Budapest and the German/Hungarian efforts to stop them.

Fire & Sword includes 913 die-cut playing pieces, most of which originally appeared in our long out-of-print Road to Berlin game. There are also five brand-new map boards, and 39 new scenarios organized in our popular story-arc format with historical background to put the scenarios in their context and battle games to tie them together.

Fire & Sword comes in our Playbook format: everything you need to play, except dice, inside a book.
