By Sunday, D-plus-7, the beleaguered British 1st Airborne had contracted into a tight knot around the village, anchored by positions on the north bank of the Lower Rhine. Just across the water were friendly forces, but their every attempt to reach the "Red Devils" thus far had failed. Within the shrinking perimeter the situation was critical; ammunition and medical supplies were short, and for every three men fit for combat there were two seriously wounded. At 1030 hours, a truce was arranged for the evacuation of British wounded into German care. Dr. Graeme Warrack and Major Egon Skalka, divisional medical officers who together had arranged the chivalrous operation, now coordinated the "battlefield clearing" from der Hexenkessel of 450 wounded. No sooner was this completed, at about 1700 hours, than the shelling resumed. And with it came a German attack planned to push the paratroopers away from their riverfront positions and their tenuous link with Allied troops to the south.

This scenario is designed for head-to-head play. If played solo against the AI it's best to take the German side, and the AI must be free to place it's units.
 
This is the seventh scenario of seven in the Market-Garden Series.
