Nice scenarios that introduces Belgians, Fallschirmjager, and gliders. Unfortunatally, the game is marred by the chopped-up "basic-lite" rules (hence the '5' rating). You will need the full set of rules to enjoy.

Six scenarios featuring the Belgian defense, loss and attempt to recapture of the Albert Canal in May 1940. A monster scenario (using both maps and running 20 turns with lots of units) for Scottish Corridor is included. My ranking is for the six Albert Canal scenarios which are pretty interesting. The briefing includes rules for glider assaults which aren't included in the main ATS rules and provides a play aid showing glider loads. One of the scenarios includes two Belgian tanks. These scenarios are a nice change of pace from the late war scenarios which aside from Advanced Tobruk itself, make up the majority of the games in the system so far.

All punched, clipped, and in craft/Plano boxes. All ATS titles are being traded together - check my collection for the list of ATS games/expansions. This is a huge collection, so PM me to set up a trade.
