Ok Arnhem game
Few things to decide:
- When?
- Who?
- How?
Thinking the following for the scenario, the naff map below outlining a single large game as the last one works - keeps it simple
- Not very good map

Red bits are the three German deployment zones, we have a defence force (Grabner?) adjacent to the river, one of the panzer forces arriving from the edge near the window and some German airborne in the third zone defending the road.
Yellow bits are British,
two airborne forces start within the corner delimited by the river, these forces are allowed to move within the town, may cross the river but may not move more than 12" from the river onto the German side (they are tasked with defending the town, not breaking out of it). One British reinforcement company, based on 30. Corps arrives as a relief force.
Thus six slots:
Arnhem town defences, Grabner's list?
SS Panzer strike force
German Airborne with difficult to spell name blocking the approaches
Frost's Perimeter force
British air landing force other than Frost's. Force may not have anything that cannot parachute in or land via glider
30. Corps ground force
Suggesting the game is set to about 6k5 each side, the SS and 30. corps lists being 2k5, the others up to 2k but able to flip points between all three to taste.
If we get eight players add a second panzer strike force and a second 30. Corps or a US Airborne list on the table near the window.
Open to suggestions as to when.
I can run a 30. Corps list or one of the British lists, may be able to do an SS panzer force but not sure. Guessing Colin has German airborne or panzers.
UpdateWho has what?
Madness, 30. Corps
Leopard, 30. Corps or 1st Airborne (Frost's Perimeter Force)
Lee, Grabner
James, 280.Sturmgeschutzbrigade
who is boycie when hes at home? SS-Kampfgruppe Arnheim or Spindler
Colin, German Airborne
