The MounTain TroopsTe Romanian Vanatori de Munte (mountain hunters) units

were created in 1916 and represent the elite troops o theRomanian inantry. At the outbreak o the war with the SovietUnion on 22 June 1941, the Mountain Corps consisted o our brigades (1st to 4th) made up o twelve groups (1st to12th) each with two battalions. Tere were 24 battalions (1 st to 24th) out o which the rst sixteen were very well trainedand armed active units. Te rest (17th to 24th) were ormedater the general mobilization and were o lower quality.

A mountain brigade consisted o six Vanatori de Munte battalions, one mountain artillery group (1 or 2 battalionso 75mm or 76.2mm mountain guns and one battalion o 100 mm mountain howitzers) and one mountain pioneer

battalion.Te mountain troops had a higher level o training andproessionalism than the regular inantry. Te initiative atbattalion level was more developed. Tey were well suited toghting in dicult terrain, but they lacked sucient artil-lery, which made them vulnerable in the open terrain o theRussian steppe.

In 1941 the Mountain Corps was made up o the 1st, 2nd and 4th Mountain Brigades. Te 3rd Mountain Brigade wasstationed on the rontier with Hungary. At the end o the1941 campaign, the 2nd Mountain Brigade was brought back to Romania and the 1st and 4th Mountain Brigades remained

in Crimea.

During the winter, the 2nd and 3rd Mountain Brigade werecompletely rearmed. Te old rst world war artillery pieces

were replaced with modern guns. Te 1st and 4th Mountain

Brigades, which were at the ront, received eld guns insteado mountain guns. Because they were involved in the rstsiege o Sevastopol, they were reinorced with two 100mmhowitzer battalions.

On 15 March 1942, the mountain and cavalry brigadesbecame divisions, though actual size o the units didn’tchange, the establishment o the mountain brigades already put them on par with Italian and Hungarian divisions. In

July 1942, the 2nd and 3rd Mountain Divisions were sent tothe ront to take part in the campaigns in the Caucasus andthe Kuban regions.

During the winter o 1942/1943, the 1st

Mountain Division was also modernized. Te 4th Mountain Division never gotto replace its old guns beore it was disbanded in November1944. Ater the battle o Stalingrad, the 18th Inantry Division was transormed into the 18th Mountain Division.Its regiments were renamed mountain groups (18 th, 90th and 92nd) and the battalions received new numbers (27th to35th). Te 1st, 2nd and 3rd Mountain Divisions retreated intoCrimea and the 4th Mountain Division was joined with the24th Inantry Division to orm the 4/24th Inantry Division.

In May 1944, only 60% o the mountain troops in Crimea were evacuated beore the Soviets had completely retaken the

peninsular.



Romanian Special RuleS

peasanT arMy Romania’s huge army was drawn rom the rural peasant class,ocered by the aristocratic upper class, and disciplined by NCO’s using 18th century style corporal punishment. Men

were regularly beaten or minor breaches in regulation and

discipline. Te separation o men, NCO’s, and ocers even went as ar as meals that were supplied in three qualities, with ocers, naturally, getting the best. Te ocers werealso responsible or the training o their own units. Tis ledto a great variation in the quality o troops’ combat prepared-ness. Te distant relationship between the ocers and theirlargely illiterate men combined with the harsh conditions o army lie, and sometimes poor training, led to mixed levelso perormance and morale in the eld.

o reect the variable quality o the men and ocers’ rela-tionship and perormance, Romanian platoons are rated as

Regular or Elite. Ater deployment, but beore the rst turn,roll a die or each platoon and its attached teams and consult the Peasant Army table to determine their raining and

Motivation characteristics.

MounTaineers Romanian mountain inantryman are trained as moun-taineers. Tey can scale clis that are impassable to normalinantry.

Mountaineers treat steep hillsides as normal Cross-country errain (they can move At the Double across them) and mountains as Dicult Going.

Mountaineers can cross Impassable clifs and similar obsta-cles. o do so they must start the Movement Step adjacent tothe obstacle and not be Pinned Down (see page 75 o the rule book). Roll a Skill est or each team instead o moving inthe Movement Step.

• I they succeed, the team crosses the obstacle, halting at the other side.

• I they ail, the team remains where it is.

A team that attempts to cross an Impassable obstacle cannot shoot this turn, although it can assault.

DefenD The hoMelanD Tough the Romanian inantryman may have mixed treat-ment rom his ocers and NCOs, once in the thick o theghting he would oten ght tenaciously when conrontedby the enemy. Tey were not interested in invading Russia

or conquering the world, but to simply ght stubbornly todeend what they already had.

Romanian platoons may re-roll ailed Motivation ests toCounterattack in assaults.

french DocTrineTe Romanian troops are trained in the French doctrine o trench warare. Teir operational plan is to make a shortdeliberate advance under cover o massed artillery re, thenortiy their position to hold it while the artillery comes upto repeat the process. While the advance is slow, it is sure and

will eventually result in the deeat o the enemy.

Once entrenched, Romanian inantry set up crossre posi-tions or every weapon allowing them to take any attack inenlade.

When entrenched in Foxholes or Gun Pits, RomanianGun teams can shoot over any Romanian Inantry team inFoxholes or renches, whether it shoots or not, when conduct-ing Deensive Fire.

In March 1943 a tank battalion, equipped with 50 oldGerman -38 tanks (CKD L VZ 38 or Panzer 38 (t) tanks),

was sent to the ront to reinorce the Cavalry Corps and theMountain Corps in the Kuban region east o Crimea.

It had three companies (51st, 52nd and 53rd) each 15 tanksstrong. Five tanks were kept in reserve or replacements asthese old tanks had seen a lot o service and were not alwaysreliable. Ater the retreat rom the aman bridgehead, thebattalion was used in the ghting in Crimea in late 1943. Itreturned to Romania in early in 1944, with only ten tanksstill operational.
