Drop Zone: Chef-du-Pont is a Historical Advanced Squad Leader (HASL) module covering the first three days of the battles around the important Norman bridge at Chef-du-Pont and the heights of Hill 30..
It is the second in a series exploring Airborne operations on D-Day and shortly thereafter in Normandy as part of Operation OVERLORD. It focuses on the key actions to control the bridge across the Merderet River just west of the French village of Chef-du-Pont, whose capture was assigned to the 508th Parachute Infantry Regiment (PIR). Matched against the Americans were the German infantry of Grenadier-Regiment 1057, Luftlande-Infanterie-Division 91, assisted at times by the re-purposed French armor of Panzer-Ersatz-Abteilung 100.
DZ: CdP follows in the footsteps of the successful Drop Zone: Sainte-Mère-Église (which is not required to play DZ: CdP), but it is a much different experience. It is much more compact, with only one mapsheet, one simplified Campaign Game, and no new counters (and no cows). It requires no box and is much easier to access. Slope rules (from earlier HASL modules) are introduced, but their use is limited, and a comprehensive LOS Example of how slopes interact with bocage on the historical map is included.
