Maleme, Western Crete, Greece: May 20th, 1941. (Scenario Size: Battalion+ Head to Head or Human vs AI for either side. This scenario uses variable objective victory points) Generalleutnant Karl Student's unprecedented Operation Merkur was reliant on the quick capture of the airfields at Maleme, Retimo and Heraklion. Maleme was deemed the most critical due to its close proximity to the capital Canea and the deep-water port of Suda Bay. With Maleme airfield secured the Gebirgsjaegers of 5th Gebirgs Division could be flown in to quickly reinforce the airborne troops. Lt Colonel Leslie Andrews VC commanding the New Zealand 22nd Battalion was tasked with the defense of both the airfield and the Hill 107 overlooking the immediate area. Student's Fallschirmjaeger were tasked to take exactly the area that Andrew's men were preparing to defend.

A very fast and furious paced scenario. There's not quite enough time for the German's to capture enough VP's to assure victory. A hasty, speedy assault is required to be successful.
