Ok, I have changed the focus of the new campaign so that it covers the initial airborne landing of Operation Tonga rather than the later Battle of Bréville. Some points of note . . . + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + * - It will be played from the British side. * - Players will command individual Airborne Companies (from 7th, 12th and 13th Parachute Battalions). * - It will be a sort of open sandbox in that it will be story and individual unit driven and will NOT follow the historical event outcomes. For example 'Operation Deadstick' has failed. ;-) * - The objective will be for you, the initial airborne forces, to secure the dropzone area for follow on glider landings which due to weather and aircraft losses have been put off for a few days at least. So you need to secure the DZ, possibly link up with forces landing at Sword Beach and hold on until help arrives. * - There will be no overall commander, all senior officers having been killed or captured in the initial drop however, you will have contact with each other, through runners, landlines and possible radios to coordinate operations. * - Some battles will be easier than others and some may be desperate attempts to survive being overrun. + - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - + The goal of the campaign is to have some fun playing extremely varied scenarios with an slight RPG/Story element added in. Any initial questions, comments?
