Back to Scenario
At first you'll be represented by the units of 21st Panzer, except for the 192 PzGrenadier Regiment, which will be offboard, and the reconnaissance battalion, which will show up as reinforcements. You'll have to place everything else onboard somewhere, before the bombardment starts. You'll also have a battalion of Luftwaffe infantry. The scenario starts somewhat after the terrific aerial bombardment leaves off, and you don't know the disposition of any of your units.
My suggestion would be to have one player set up the initial forces (on map) and play Becker's Assault Gun Battalion 200. Another player will play von Luck (not having read the book, it should be fun) and will run whatever he can get ahold of. The first player (or a third, if appropriate) will run reinforcements.
After calling for reinforcements, HQ will send 1st SS Pz and perhaps 12th SS Pz, though it'll be a few hours before they arrive.
Your mission is to foil the British offensive. von Luck will have to hold out as best he can before reinforcements arrive.
