Excellent Raptor. The Hungarian 3rd Tank Regiment and the 9th Company of
the 3rd SS Panzer Regiment. This is one battle that the KingTiger will have to
participate. I also understand that there was a horrific and fierce battle for
Hungary and would be a real challenge to recreate a part of it in T34 vs Tiger.
However I believe it could be done after completion of the KingTiger.
