Piquet: Point of Attack
Scenario Information

by Alistair Birch

While we wait for that great day when a POA scenario book will appear, how about sharing scenario resources? Here's one I just came across.

I just got hold of the Dropzone rulebook from the Canadian Wargamers Group which could prove a rich resource - One stand = a company so the basic unit is the battalion.

It includes 13 excellent airborne action scenarios which could probably be adapted for POA. They range from Crete to Malta, to D-Day Pegasus Bridge (a solo scenario with card-based activation for the Germans) to the different theatres of Market Garden including a campaign scenario which links Eindhoven, Nijmegen & Arnhem.

They also do more general WW2 rule set which also has lots of scenarios too.

-ed note, here's what's currently available from The Canadian Wargamer's Group and costs.
