Death of the Red Devils - The Matrix Games version of West Front

Operation Market-Garden was as simply as it was bold : lay a carpet of Airborne troops over trhee major rivers and follow up their gains by consolidating their positions with armoured and motorised troops. The Allied High Command was very optimistic : 40 km to Eindhovern, 90 km to Nijmegen and 120 km to Arnhem, the wining prize. British 30 Corps would cover the distance in 48 hours!!! But intelligence had failed to notice II SS Panzer Corps refitting just north of Arnhem and also forgot the genius of Feldmarshal Model, a master in defensive battles. very quickly OB West scraped the bottom of the barrel to find troops. The ad hoc Kampfgruppen not only succeeded in slowing down the Allied thrust, but also with help from the 9th and 10th SS Panzer Divisions todestroy the British 1st Airborne in the process. The war would not be over soon. BEST PLAYED AS ALLIED
