The Commander Series Forum

Hi Everyone
I'm soon to be playing BKC (waiting for the book now)
I was wondering if anyone has or knows any good scenarios for Canadian forces in the Normandy Campaign.
I'm hoping to play the campaign with my gaming group (get them hooked on WW2 wargaming)

The new 'Blenneville or Bust!' scenario pack from TooFatLardies might be just what you're looking for? 32 scenarios for £9.50 is a bargain if you ask me!

Sorry! 31 scenarios, I mis-counted!

Thanks that looks great.
but I should have clarified that I was thinking historical scenarios so we could replay the Normandy Campaign.
May still try that book just for fun.

Bear in mind those scenarios are aimed at company-level play.

The rapid-fire website has some Canadian Normandy scenarios - I seem to remember there was a minicampaign run on that theme.

Doesn't GHQ also have a volume dedicated to the Canadian army in WW2 - don't know if this includes scenarios.

The Battleground Normandy series published by Sutton Publishing, would be a good place to start reading around for scenario ideas, they have volumes on Juno and the push for Caen, both of which discuss the Canadian role at length, if I remember correctly.

I'm slowly working through Canadians in Normandy battles. Next one will be Buron July 1944. I did the Buron June 1944 battle, but it is too one sided (German).

Here is a great page with scenarios:

I recommend any book by Mark Zuehlke. Great information to make your own scenarios.

Eric
a Canadian Expat

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/bob_mackenzie/ has a scenario for Buron written for Command Decision that can be directly converted to Blitzkrieg Commander.

If you can find a copy or order from Canadian Wargamers

has a solo scenario for Juno Beach

Looks perfect guys
Thanks a lot

I will try to post a campaign report as we get started

If you want to build your own scenarios, there's a lot of great info in No Holding Back: Operation Totalize, Normandy, August 1944

http://www.amazon.com/No-Holding-Back-Operation...

GHQ has a supplement out for Canadians in WWII, covers Italy and Normandy.

Thanks for more ideas.
I'm just starting to work on a date to start the campaign.

Just got the book!!!

The BKC rulebook.

And all of the books in Sutton Publishing's series Battle Zone Normandy are superb references for building scenarios too.
