June, 1944
Normandy, France
The GREAT CRUSADE has
begun!
The liberation of Europe
is underway!
Now, up from the beaches,
your combined tank and foot
soldier forces are to move
to secure a couple of key
bridges across a river in
the bocage country.
The GIs are tired, hungry
and at the same time, eager
to finish the job started
by the invasion, and get
back home to the US of A.
The Sherman Tanks are slow,
prone to break-down, and
easy fonder for the sleek,
fast-moving, hard hitting
panzers of the Werhmacht.
But, they are what you have.
The Bocage country is great
for grapes, wine and deadly
ambushes. Machine-Gun nests,
Anti-Tank Gun emplacements
and Panzerfausts seem to lie
in wait at every hedgerow.
Watch the cows! If they are
grazing near a hedgerow, that
usually means there is not an
ambush lurking there.
Listen to the birds! They do
seem to squak more when diesel
fumes have been in the air.
Keep alert!
Secure those bridges!
This scenario lasts 75 turns.
