I have played this scenario a while ago, but while waiting for the patch I thought I could do an AAR, so here you are. I should be able to post all the AAR in the next couple of days. Unfortunately since I was not planning an AAR I only had some notes that I made to myself while playing (I normally write down when I stop playing what I want to do next in case I can only continue after some days).
The Briefing
The situation is pretty grim as the briefing explains. The airfield is lost, the Black Watch and the 2nd/4th Australian dislodged and now Iraklion itself is under threat. Cherry on the pie, in the morning the Germans are flying in reinforcements. My mission is to re-take the airport or cause maximum damage while the Germans try to exit the map. Also, I will need to protect the port of Iraklion and Khrisoply which are the only escape routes to leave Crete.
I can count on 3 British Battalions, one Australian, 3 Greek regiments (no mortars
), one artillery regiment without artillery (!) and other support units. This leaves me with only the 234th Medium battery, rather powerful but certainly not enough. Late in the game I will also receive 3 Matilda Mk II as reinforcements. Basically my OOB is as follows:* please bear with me while I try to figure out how to embed a pic [:D]
