West Front LCG - Operation Sealion

**Jason Petho** · 09-04-2025, 03:08 PM,

We went over the latest news in detail and showed off some new features for the Campaign Series Middle East and Vietnam games. There was a good discussion and download of all that is going on and then we dove back into the West Front Operation Sealion Linked Campaign. Fortunately we are getting some reinforcements in this Linked Campaign, as I was able to get my units up to strength after the first scenario. We then participated in a shore battery operation, which helped elements of a mountain division arrive on shore. We are sitting at about 70% strength for our battalion at the moment and we have started the third scenario in the campaign, as we push north from the beachhead. To London!

We started off with the latest news about the Campaign Series, including some new Warsaw Pact vehicles. We also went over the pending JTCS UPDATE release plan and then dove back into the Sealion Linked Campaign. It seems we formulated a good plan and were mostly successful in our advance along Stone Street, the tactics seemed to work although we did suffer a few more casualties than expected due to the nature of the British Defences. After we started the next scenario, attempting to cross a river at Canterbury. This is turning into a serious struggle, especially with the 40mm AAA Guns wreaking havoc amongst my paras!

We had the opportunity to show off all the new User Interface updates that Petri has been working on for the Middle East and Vietnam games. Definitely take a look and provide some feedback, please! These will be available in BETA form in October and officially released in November. After that, we returned to the Operation Sealion Linked Campaign game in West Front while playing the new 2.05 UPDATE. The scenarios are hard and I'm suffering a lot of casualties. We were advancing towards Maidstone in this session and what a mess that turned into being. There was a success, but it was rough go!

We started off by showing off some of the new vehicles that will be included in Cold War for the Warsaw Pact forces. After a quick update, we dove back into this Operation Sealion Linked Campaign where we continued the clearing mission near Maidstone. While we achieved a minor victory, it was full of action throughout and misguided tactics. Our casualties are mounting up and we're now started the sixth scenario. It is forcing a river crossing, which already is getting off on the wrong foot. On the bright side, we have more guns and some additional forces to help our advance. I did spot some Matilda's across the river though, which means my 88's will have to be put to good use!

All the Campaigns should be rigged should be rigged to continue even if you lose a scenario. Maybe have to fight where you left off and return with reinforcements of your choice from your KG/TF or Div/Corps depending on the size of the campaign you are doing. Or move to the next scenario with or without reinforcements of your choosing. Cool to switch Pz or Inf Bns out to get a rest while another goes forward or is brought in to bulk up the force that is already there. You, as Cdr makes the decision.
