Teamplay Scenario] Location : southwest of Caen, Normandy. Montgomery's big push south to reach the more favourable terrain south of Caen is now in it's second day! Yesterday, after a heavy artillery bombardment and bomber raid, three armoured divisions corssed their starting line and headed south! The German outposts offered little resistance, shocked and dazzled the men in their foxholes did not stand a chance against the combined striking powers of the British tanks. But the farther south they went, the stiffer the resistance got!! The badly battered 21st Panzer did not succeed in stopping the onslaught, but it seriously hampered the advance, buying time to move up reinforcements. Those came in the form of battlegroups of 1st and 12th SS. But just like 21st Panzer, it was very weak in armour after the heavy fighting since the allied landing! I SS Panzer Korps decided to make a stand just in front of Bourgébus ridge and directed all available forces towards the hot spot. On the other side, the British had their own problems to solve! The massive traffic jams in the rear, hampered the infantry greatly! The tanks were able to get through, but without infantry they could not hold any ground they conquered! So on this day , the fight would continue. The 7th, 11th and Guards armoured were again heading south. The tanks were rolling and the infantry was trying hard to get there in time...

Resolve then, that on this very ground, with small flags waving and tinny blasts on tiny trumpets, we shall meet the enemy, and not only may he be ours, he may be us. --Walt Kelly
If you fighting with high velocity as allied player-the axis will have their totally disaster!
