The Mission

The mission was an adapted version of Free-For-All played length ways on the table using just one objective per player. The deployment zones were also increased, see the map for more details.


Situation Report

The Polish forces are desperate to hold an important railway junction used as an important supply distribution point for the troops at the frontlines. If the Germans can successfully take it then the effectiveness of the Polish army as a fighting force will be greatly reduced.
