The Royal Hungarian Army had been through hell since the collapse of the Dual Monarchy. Words could not express how many of its men had been lost—a combination of desertion, drug overdose, attrition, and combat-related fatalities had plagued its numbers.
But things were changing. Hungary had more or less held its ground against a variety of pressing threats, and the banners of the independent kingdom now flew proudly once more. As per his agreement with the new king, Bruno had begun investing in the nation's infrastructure.
In doing so, he had enabled the production of a new generation of Hungarian armor. The best way to describe these tanks was as a Tas 44m built to the weight and size of a 40M Turán I, featuring a similar-sized main gun and a welded steel turret of comparable shape. Though built in small batches during the Great War, they were modern by regional standards and largely inspired by German armor designs.
