Hi!

As part of Army Group North's push towards Leningrad during 1941's Operation Barbarossa, a large pocket of Russian forces was formed in Northern Estonia, around the capital city of Tallinn.

During the last days of August 1941 a combined force of German Troops and Estonian nationalist forces converged upon the Russian forces to eliminate the pocket. The Russian forces defended stoically and carried out the "Russian Dunkirk" by evacuating many of their forces from Tallinn's harbour back to Kronstadt to aid in the defence of Leningrad.

Your objective as the commander of the German forces is to crack the defensive layers and take Tallinn, eliminating as much of the Russian forces as you can.

For context: http://warfarehistorynetwork.com/daily/ ... offensive/

v1.0.0 Available

For clarity, the challenge in Challenge Mode is to get to Turn 30 and have as few enemy units either still Alive or Escaped. If you take on the challenge, grab a screenshot of your end screen and upload to here :) (please say if you use a custom or default force)

Thanks,

Quick Note: The "Units Escaped" secondary objective is used as a tracker for the "Challenge Mode". It's always "Completed" in Challenge Mode and always "Failed" in Standard Mode so that I can award the appropriate Victory type.

Oops, bad dropbox link. I think you chopped off the other one as well. (Fixed now.)

Heh, you've discovered as I did that a thread out here gets more publicity than one in the Scenario Design forum. It pays to advertise! You may also want to post in the Matrix OOB forum even though it's very quiet over there.

Good catch! Teach me to copy and paste without due care and attention :)

Now that the holidays are over, I thought it was worth breaking out of the Scenario Design sub-forum clique ;-)
