CMBN British Campaign: Thunder over Arnhem
Thunder over Arnhem is a CMBN British Campaign depicting the actions of the British 1st Parachute Brigade, the Red Devils, during Operation Market Garden. It requires the latest version of CMBN as well as the modules.
Though the Campaign is historically correct with the units involved, and the first few missions are historical in context, but we all know what happened to the British historically.
So the premise of Thunder over Arnhem is to give the player a chance to change history and secure the Bridge too Far. To do this the Campaign will have branching missions so even with a loss the player still has a chance to move forward in the Campaign.
As mentioned, the units for both the British and Germans are historically correct.
