Amiens Tonight Scenario Count


Recommended Posts

  • 3 years later...

It is very much a well crafted campaign , albeit one based on a myth. The Ike said to Monty etc etc never happened.

It actually went like this.

Pip said to Jorrocks :- "My boys are champing at the bit. I think that we can make Amiens tonight."

Jorrocks said to Bimbo :-  "11th Armoured will be in Amiens tonight".

Bimbo said to Monty :- "Brian reckons that XXX Corps will have advanced as far as Amiens by tonight".

Monty said to Ike :- "2nd Army are telling me that they are going to Amiens tonight".

Ike said to Kay :- "Who is Amy Enns?"

Kay said to Ike :- "Dunno, must be another one of those Limey warblers, like that Vera Lynn, that they made us go and see at Christmas".

And I know this to be a fact cuz my Granddad Paddy was delivering a case of knocked off Gordon's to Jorrocks' HQ when it happened.
