Battle For The Meuse

The British have launched Operation Market-Garden, mein general, an airborne, surprising attack aimed at seizing the bridges over the Meuse and the Rhine River. The main objectives of Market-Garden are Arnhem and Njimegen, two key cities where you fought in 1940 during the first part of Fall Gelb. Now it is up to you to move immediately westward to stop the british advance from Eindovhen, fighting an hard battle over the skies of Holland while at the same time you'll have to silence the strong paratroop brigades on your rear. It will not be easy.
