This week, our scenarios are focusing on the Battle of the Falaise Pocket. The Pocketed mini-campaign uses Company Command special rules in which one player takes command of an infantry company from the 10th SS Panzer Division “Frundsberg,” while the other commands an infantry company from the 2nd Canadian Infantry Division, over the course of three scenarios. The Company Command rules can be found here.
