Arctic Front: Crusaders At Hango - Crossroads - 12-07-2011 Now available in the Blitz Scenario Database: https://www.theblitz.club/scenarios/Campaign-Series/**-Crusaders-at-Hango-EFFB/action=scenario_details&sid=1792&ladder=2 -- Here's a little scenario I put together to test the new units within the mod. Tough little SM 5 battle, I hope you enjoy it! Please post here to report on any issues with the scenario, or with the units included. RE: New Scenario: ** Crusaders At Hango LWM 1.1 - Crossroads - 11-17-2012 I learned the Finns had a couple of Gotha gliders available to them. While never used in actual history, they are promptly introduced here within a new 1.1b version of the scenario: ** Crusaders at Hango LWM 1.1 [Hango, South coast of Finland, some 120 km West from Helsinki]: [H2H] [FIC] [GD] [ALL : N VV : OPT AF, EA]: As the last units of German 122.D were finishing their one month long stint at Karelian Isthmus, readying to be shipped back to Narva front, they reserve new orders. The news of the secret Finnish armistice negotiations with Soviets have angered The Fuhrer, and Hango port must now be secured and reinforced for a German push towards Helsinki, to keep Finland at war. As Finnish radio intelligence keeps keen ears over the deteriorating situation, they learn the rough seas have forced most of the German ships to remain anchored at Estonia, at least for now. Securing the Hango port against German reinforcements is essential to keep the country out from a war with two fronts. The only units available to the task are the 2nd tank battalion of Tank Bde, who together with Jgr Bde's Replacement Bn were near by, getting used to their new gear. Orders are plain and simple for both parties: secure the Hango port using any means available. Battle for Hango is on! With inspiration and map from D. Bevard's 1941 scenario of "Crusade to Hango" [Requires players to install Lapland War Mod version 1.1 or newer] A wintery picture of Port of Hango, from 1920s RE: New scenario: ** Crusaders At Hango LWM - Crossroads - 05-27-2013 CONTENT OBSOLETE & REMOVED RE: ** Crusaders At Hango LWM - Crossroads - 07-07-2013 Released this to Scenario Database as well. Decided to stick with the medics version, as this is not a serious historical battle but a what-if. --

The news of the Finnish armistice negotiations with Soviets had reached the German OKW, and the decision was for a strong German push towards Helsinki, to keep Finland at war. This called for a reversal in orders: evacuation is to be stopped, and more units shipped in instead. As Finnish radio intelligence keeps keen ears over the deteriorating situation, they learn the rough seas have forced most of the German ships to remain anchored at Estonia, at least for now.
