I know this is a miniatures forum and my main interest is 6mm (1/300, 1/285) and I am gaming this in 6mm but curious. Is anyone aware of a wargame, published, print and play or just noodling on someone's website, covering the Slovak Hungarian War at the strategic level (or as close as possible)? I have The Little War by Brian Train but at each counter being a company and a seemingly "representative" area of the war I assume (just printing it out now) it covers possible actions as opposed to actual ones and on a small scale. Please correct me if wrong. I have a couple scenarios for ASL and some downloaded scenarios for Check Your 6 as well. I am also aware of Czechoslovakia 1938 from Command Magazine 24 but, unless there is an expansion or variant that covers the S-H conflict not interested. Thank you in advance.

This is Skirmish scale for NUTS for a what-if 1938 Czechoslovakia-German War, but does include unit lists for Hungary, and the Slovaks continued with the TOE of Czechoslovakia:

Seems that brief war would be suited for Company level and Platoon level wargaming.

Not likely the strategic level but Osprey has a new one out on all the small wars in East Europe after WW1 and WW2.

Thank you SB I already have that title. I also have the 2 scenarios for ASL as well. I forgot to include them. I usually play at tactical or sub-tactical but I like games at the strategic (such as this may have been) as well.

Grattan-I will check that out. Thank you for the notice.

stephen m23 Jun 2025 10:26 a.m. PST

Grattan-Do you have a link? Their search function is not taking me anywhere but A World Aflame game.

I believe that this is what he is talking about

Actually, I think this might be what Grattan was talking about
even although it only covers after ww1 and they are not wargame rules but general/uniform history.

There's also this, German Freikorps 1918-23

SOM-Thank you but again a skirmish set of rules, not a strategic level game. I have it already.

glengarry-Not the right period. I did find that but will pass. Thank you.

Glengarry6,

Yes, that is the one I meant.

Ed von HesseFedora25 Jun 2025 3:35 p.m. PST

I thought someone made a scenario for this using the Europa series of games by GDW/GRD.

Sadly a quick Google search doesn't find it.

stephen m25 Jun 2025 5:51 p.m. PST

Ed-That might be interesting. Given the few forces available it may just work.

Ed von HesseFedora25 Jun 2025 6:00 p.m. PST

I looked through the files on the Europa Facebook page. The only thing I could find was one for a defense of Austria and also for the defense of Czechoslovakia from the Germans.

They were mentioned in the magazine article index.

stephen m25 Jun 2025 6:26 p.m. PST

Magazine? Any links to issue(s) please?

Ed von HesseFedora26 Jun 2025 2:10 p.m. PST

The file is an index of Europa-centric magazines in the GDW / GRD Europa wargames group on Facebook.

Just in case I wasn't clear—I did NOT find the scenario or any mention of one.
