It’s true! This may be the fastest win in PG history: One turn! I may do over or play longer. Here’s the story

The German’s had gthree groups of paratroopers. The object was to capture the town of Agia, a small town full of good pious villagers near the northern border of board #97.The Greek 8th Regiment was much weaker than the 4 companies of paratroopers of the German 3rd Regiment, which included a variety of heavy weapons. The Greeks did have 10 points of off-board artillery and a mortar platoon. A lucky shot might have disrupted a German platoon. An interesting 4 hex lake overlay ran in front of Agia, adding a natural barrier. Of course, the object was to capture the town.

The Germans never touched the Greeks; no shots were fired. It’s a good thing. My opinion is that the 8th wouldn’t have stood sa chance with its puny 3-2 infantry platoons. But a miracle happened! A great wind from the west suddenly blew half the paratroopers off the board– 12 steps, 4 leaders and all of the weaponry off the map with a 9 nex deviation. Sent the bad guys right into the Mediterranean! The people of Agia rejoiced and today celebrate every May 20 with the Festival of St., uh, Olive Oil.

Game Over!
