New Campaign: Baptism of the Black Brigade

[Brian61]

Having come to a natural pause in the Black Brigade scenarios, since after 6 September 1939 the Krakow Army no longer needed its southern flank secured as its front had collapsed, I decided to use the four scenarios as the basis for a campaign. So with no further introduction, here it be

Have fun,
Brian

PS: Please let me know if you find any errors or if any given battle seems either way too easy or impossibly hard.

The weather's turning nice here and with 7 acres I have a lot of yard work to do so it might be awhile before I get this looked at

Ah yes, yard work. Having moved from a house in the country to an apartment in the city some years back, that would be one of the things I don't miss. At all.

Hopefully someone else will post some feedback in the meanwhile, and if not, its taken me ten years to get to this point, a few months more won't make much difference.

Thanks,
Brian

You've been working on these for 10 years ?

That explains one every three days.

Eh, it'd be better to say I've been mulling on the concept of a Black Brigade campaign for 10 years. Started with some correspondance and discussion with Redleg who later created some Black Brigade scenarios for another company's sp based mod. Real life kept getting in the way of doing anything concrete beyond taking the opportunity to do a bit of background research now and then.

Back around 2006 I did finally create a few scenarios but when I moved across country later I left the hard drive behind and didn't realize till a year later that my CD backup was unreadable

Having a good idea of what I wanted to do and already having the majority of the research behind me certainly helped. At the least I knew what to search for. Doing the maps that quickly was far more due to me being retired and bored

I'm retired, Never bored.

Hi Brian thanks for your work. I'm playing your campaign. I'm at the turn 8 of the first scenario. I did back a few armored vehicles.

One wee problem I noted was the observer is unable to call arty.

Just what I was saying. The observer has no radio.
I'll turn 12 by the first scenario. They're about to run me, I have several units routed but the Germans have many tanks smoking. Destroyed almost all its light tanks and armored vehicles. I just have an anti-tank gun. If I can not stop the German attack in the next two turns troops retreat to the next scenario.
