New 3 pack ready to go! All 3 play tested and V7.0
1. Zoppot, 11km NW of Danzig: [Best played as Germans] On the 13th of March 1945 the Russian 2nd Belorussian Front opened an offensive aimed at reducing the German held fortified region around Gotenhafen and Danzig. The trapped German forces (7 divisions and the remnants of 11 others) fought bitterly to allow the Kriegsmarine time to evacuate both civilians and military. On the 22nd of March Russian forces broke through in the area of the resort town of Zoppot. In the wooded area west of Zoppot a rag-tag group of freshly formed German troops, with support from the heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen, attempted to stop a Russian Rifle division with tank support, attacking en echelon, from reaching the sea and dividing the Germans forces in two.
2. Bad Hersfeld, 50km SSE of Kassel, Germany: [Best played as American] Even as Task Force Balm was making its ill-fated attempt to liberate American POWs at Hammelburg in late March 1945, the rest of the 4th Armored Division began to exploit its small bridgehead across the Main River from Hanau. The advance east was swift, with the combat commands splitting into smaller formations to cover more ground and increase the disruption of the northern wing of the German Seventh Army as it struggled to establish a cohesive defense. At Bad Hersfeld the commander of the Seventh Army, General von Obstfelder, was trying to put together an armored force to counterattack into the flank of the American advance using Panzer Brigade Thueringen. Obstfelder's attack would never take place! On the 29th, the last of some forty hoarded panzers were completing unloading from railcars and joining with the 300th Assault Gun Battalion south of the village. Suddenly a column of tanks and tank destroyers from Task Force Battaglia stumbled into the German infantry outposts along the highway to Frankfurt and immediately opened fire, beginning a mad free-for-all along the banks of the Fulda and Haune Rivers!
3. Moyland Wood, 8km E of Kleve, Germany: [Best played as Allied] As a preparation to the planned "Blockbuster" offensive in the Rhineland of 1945, it was necessary to secure an embattled stretch of woods near the town of Moyland. To this end, brigades from three separate Canadian divisions struggled to clear "Bloody Moyland," and reach the planned start line for Blockbuster along the Goch-Kalcar road. The Germans had other ideas, launching a sharp counterattack with KGs from both 116th Panzer and Panzer Lehr to hold the line and protect the Rhine bridge at Rees.
