Historical Background:
At the beginning of Operation Epsom, the 44th brigade (15th Lowland Infantry Division) had to capture the village of Cheux and the hamlet of Le Haut du Bosc. The Scottish infantry had to breakthrough the first German defense line hold by the engineer battalion of the 12.SS Panzer Division Hitlerjugend. Most of the Churchill tanks in support of the infantry were damaged by mines in the first minutes of the assault so the infantrymen were often alone to fight against the enemy. A German bunker used as HQ of the engineer battalion was isolated in the middle of the battlefield. Finally Cheux was captured by the Glasgow Highlanders at 10 o'clock and le Haut du Bosc by the Cameronians at 11 o'clock, but losses were heavy from the two sides.
The stage is set, the battle lines are drawn, and you are in command. The rest is history.
