Market-Garden - Increased 1st Airborne Drop. An interesting "what-if" scenario has always been the complete drop of the British 1st Airborne Division on the first day. This would have given them additional firepower in the city itself by precluding the need to divert forces to guard the second day's dropzones. With just a bit more airlift, this could have been achieved. This variant is essentially the Historical Campaign game, except in this scenario the Allied Player is given good weather and the entire 1st Airborne Division is dropped on the first day. The Allied player also has a variety of drop choices for the Polish Parachute Brigade, allowing for a more balanced Human vs. Human game.
This scenario was altered to allow more historical results and the chance for the allies to win even if the British 1st Airborne Division is eliminated as long as they manage to take and hold Arnhem.
