War Storm Series......

[Ichibrothers]

Added a gamebox of MMP's upcoming release: La Bataille de France, 1940. A platoon level tactical game, second in The War Storm Series ( http://www.warstormseries.es/ ). The demo depicts Operation NIWY:

"For those that know nothing about the Operation NIWY, here is some information:

Operation Niwy (for Nives and Witry) is launched at 5h20 on 10th May 1940 : 400 commandos (10th company and 11th company of the 3rd battalion of the "Grossdeutschland" regiment reinforced by assault engineers) are transported by 98 Fi156 aircrafts (2 waves) behind the Belgian border. The 10th company (lieutenant-colonel Garski) has to be landed near Witry (next to Bodange) in support of the 1.PzD and the 11th company (captain Krüger) has to be landed near Nives in support of the 2.PzD. They have to cut the communication between Neufchâteau, Bastogne, Bodange and Martelange, to block all reinforcements coming from Neufchâteau and to attack the rears of the Belgian troops on the border. Only 5 aircrafts land at 6h00 near Witry, including Garski. The others planes landed all at Léglise, 15 km south of Nives and 9 km south of Witry. The men manage to join the commander of the battalion at 13h00 only. The second wave arrives as planned at 8h00. At 17h30 the commandos meet the first elements of the 1.PzD after skirmishes with Belgian troops."
