West of Arnhem, in the 1st Airborne sector, Sept 17th 1944: Ambitious overall, Market-Garden called for the most daring exploits from the Red Devils of the British 1st Airborne. The mission called for this force of Paratroopers and glider-borne troops to land, march to Arnhem Bridge, grab it, and then hold it for two days when relief was expected, with the tanks of XXX Corps arriving on the scene. Of course that didn't happen! In this shortened scenario, you have just over two days to reach the bridge, capture and hold it until dawn of the second day as was the plan. Without the bridge, the Allied player cannot hope to gain a Major Victory. [Size medium] Designer Note: Hold nothing back for the defense of the pocket - "Just GO for the Bridge!"
This scenario was altered to allow more historical results.
