27.2 "ADVANCE TO CONTACT"
ON ALL FRONTS, CWA—CON ‘82 Designed by Jeff Cebule © Copyright 1985
Qualberg, Germany, February 12, 1945 - After the fall of the fortified city of Cleve, the second phase of Operation Veritable began. This called for a one day "lightning strike" from Cleve through the disorganized Germans to Wesel and the Rhine a distance of 25 miles. After getting off to a poor start due to mined roads and flooded terrain the advance resumed but almost immediately ran into trouble. At Qualberg, a small village two miles east of Cleve, remnants of the 84th Infantry Division and a lone assault gun were astride the main road, determined to make one last stand...
VICTORY CONDITIONS: To win the British must clear the paved road (see special rule 6) and any adjacent hex of unbroken German squads or functioning AFV by the end of the game. The German wins by preventing the victory conditions.
