Rules of Engagement - WW2 British Paras

Operation Overlord consisted of the biggest armada the world had even seen. History mainly remembers the landings on the beaches at Normandy, however operation Overlord also consisted of a big airborne operation as well. This airborne operation is the bit I'm most interested in (and its where the idea for this army came from).

The British 1st Airborne Division, landing in Normandy, is the setting for this army (all I need now is a model bridge for Pegasus bridge). Securing strategic positions to help link up the allied forces inland, this army has landed and is now on their own, support a day away with enemy all around them.

My Airborne army consists of:

1x Command Section
6x Para sections
1x Sniper squad

Now lets dig in and await either our allies or our enemy!
