Played Through the Narrow Passage today - first time playing on the FB map which is both rich in detail and visually attractive. I found the rules comprehensively explained and the effects of food shortages and ammunition shortages are pretty straight forward and logical. Given the nature of the SS units that were trapped in Budapest having SS unit replacement also seems reasonable. Through the Narrow Passage is a three player scenario and playing it for the first time we didn't figure out successful strategies early enough which meant that two players knocked each other out and left the third player to sit back and win. However I am really looking forward to our next FB scenario.

During the game a squad assault moved adjacent to an enemy squad in a building. Defensive First Fire resulted in a MC, the squad rolled a two and following the HOB DR went beserk. Can the beserk squad move into the building hex to CC the enemy squad or has it expended all of its MF in the assault move? We assumed the latter. Did we play it right?

Assault move is ignored. The Berzerker still gets the rest of its 8MFs. There is a Q&A which confirms this:

A4.61 & A15.43 If a squad Assault Moves, is fired on and becomes Berserk, do they immediately gain (8 minus the normal MF spent to enter the hex they entered using Assault Movement) MF to use in a Charge?​
A. Yes. [Compil1]​
