Overview:
Designer's intent was for the scenario to be played at least 5 times and up to 15 times as a Campaign-style match. Amassed CVP determines winner. . . . From the moment that the "Devil's Brigade" moved in to occupy a portion of the defensive perimeter around the beachhead, Brigadier-General Frederick instituted aggressive nightly patrols of company strength. His goal was to keep the enemy opposite -- elements of the elite Hermann Goering Panzer Division-- off balance by probing the lines, causing casualties and destroying any shelter that might be of use. The men of the Canadian-American FSSF proved quite adept at the game, turning the night into a time of deadly little firefights and ambushes, giving the Germans no rest.Attacker: Allied (1st Special Service Force)
Defender: German (Panzer Division Hermann Goering)

Errata (source)
The write up refers to Frederick as a "Lt.-Gen." but at this point in time he was a Brigadier-General. He was promoted out of the Force as a major-general to command all airborne forces in southern France. | FSSF history by Robert Burhans |
