The second of our Chain of Command mini campaign weekends. This time in 1942! More of a challenge for the German Army and a lot better Armour! At least 4 linked scenarios. Culminating in a great combined arms fest.
Category: WW II
The game will be an Eastern Front one circa 1943. In this period the pendulum on the Eastern Front is swinging. The Soviets are starting to match the German training and with their latest tanks can more than match the Germans. Various marks of Pz IIIs with some Pz IVs are taking on T34/42s and T34/43s with some early lend lease stuff thrown into the mix.
Here is another chance to take part in one of our CoC mini campaign weekends. This time it’s Barbarossa. Will you guide the German assault to victory or hold them off with the Mass that is Mother Russia. All the games are linked to bring a campaign feel to the weekend.
Only 8 places so get in while you can.
The first run of this Campaign was so popular we had to turn people away, never a good thing! As a consequence we thought we’d run it again! The second public Chain of Command Campaign weekends with a series of linked battles set during the Blitzkrieg through France in 1940. Featuring engagements between French Forces and Wehrmacht at the Battle for Stonne.
There will be up to 5 games over the weekend culminating in a huge engagement. All applying a blend of CoC and Big CoC.
The Great Mistake
In the autumn of 1944 the Allies took the Antwerp docks but failed to secure the coastal approaches to the port and thereby secure the sea lanes and cut the German army line of retreat. In hindsight, historians have called this “The Great Mistake”.
Can you as the Allies cut off the German 15th Army as it retreats into Holland? Or can the German player replicate the amazing recuperative powers of the German Army and hold the British/Canadian forces in check?
The Allies have 1st Airborne Division available and the Germans some of the new Panzer Brigades.
Success for the Allies means a Rhine crossing in 1944 is possible, defeat a return to a costly winter stalemate.
This is a new WW2 game and offers players something different. Rapid Fire rules are used with our in house amendments. These have proved popular in the past and for the novice are easily picked up. Highly recommended.
