The Air Assault landings of the 82 Airborne at Nijmegen during Operation Market-Garden. This actually simulates the first couple of days of the assault. As nothing much happened on the first day. However on the second day the Germans attacked violently with everything they could scrape together. The 82nd managed to hang on until the British XXX Corps showed up but if they had been delayed much longer the 82nd would have suffered the same fate as the British 1st Airborne Division at Arnhem, which was destroyed.

Germans are able to give a good fight with their strong infantry. The battle out come is uncertain until the allies are reinforced with their tanks. At that point the battle shifts to moderately favor the Allies.
