Merville Battery
Command British paratroopers of the 9th Parachute Battalion in a desperate D-Day assault against the Merville Battery. Advance through mines and barbed wire under German small-arms and artillery fire, then disable the guns in four casemates before HMS Arethusa opens fire. The mission also requires aiding wounded comrades and withdrawing safely from the compound. German defenses are controlled by a card deck as each critical decision is made.
