Calais – The First Defence

A Scenario for France

23rd May 1940. More famously known as the scene of an epic siege, Calais was initially defended on its outskirts by a mixture of units hastily conveyed across the Channel, including motorcyclists with no motorcycles!

Includes all the info you need to play the game, plus graphic orbats.
