#07a - Fallschirmjager vs Paratrooper (6-7 June) Hypothetical_Alt - PzC 02 Normandy '44

Headquarters, German Army Group B: After weeks of debate about how the German Panzer Divisions should be used in repelling the pending Allied invasion of France, Field Marshall Rommel's ideas have finally prevailed. The plan to use the Divisions in a concentrated, counterattack mode will be scrapped in favor of positioning them directly behind suspected invasion beaches. Though no Divisions were planned to be placed behind UTAH, the placement of Panzer Lehr southwest of Bayeux would have allowed additional reinforcing units to deploy to the Utah area. This scenario covers the same action as scenario #7 but adds several units (specifically the 30.Schnell.Brig) to the reinforcement pool. For a 1 day version covering this same battle area, see #01 "Night Drop"; for a 7 day version, see #12 "Cotentin Lodgement". [Size: medium; Length: 20 turns]
