Blitzkrieg in the West 1940: 20 Wargame Scenarios – Small Battles (2020)

Overview

These 20 wargame scenarios are aimed at those players who might be constrained with space available for a table, just starting and have few troops for this period, or might not have the time nor the inclination for a larger game. Or maybe all three factors are relevant to you. So I have trawled through my 192 scenarios and chosen these 20 with these factors in mind. These scenarios are the smallest games with the fewest troops and therefore reduced playing time. 15 require an area only 1m x 2m (3’ x 6’), representing 2km x 4km, and the other 5 need 2m x 2m (6’ x 6’) representing 4km x 4km. Being drawn from the original volumes they are all to the same standard. I've also shown in red under each scenario the size of force required. These are original scenarios with detailed maps and organisations for battles. These scenarios are designed for wargamers who enjoy their history as much as their gaming.

All scenarios include the actual map from 1940, accurate forces and real battles. These are highly detailed and well researched games.

The PDF preview details the scenarios included. In short, there are seven featuring the French, seven the BEF, three the Dutch and three the Belgians.
