>> Just wondering if its still possible to pull this operation out of failure by using the ferries or "fixing the hole" in Arnhem bridge.  I was trying to hold it, but the Germans took it back.  The next day as they are pushing the 1st Brd. back, they blow it.  ?  WHy im not sure, but now it begs the question can i still win without it.

read the manual


If the Allies have a clear supply line to a major supply depot, Allied engineers will automatically
start to repair the bridge. Minor bridges take 2-3 turns to repair, and major bridges about 6
turns. Repairs proceed as long as the supply line is open and the Allies control all of the bridge
VLs. If the Germans are able to take control of any bridge VLs they can destroy the repair work
and force to Allies to start over (after they recapture all the VLs).
While a major bridge is down, Battle Groups cannot exit the map in a way that would require
them to cross the river. To cross a major river without using the bridge they will have to use
a ferry crossing or assault crossing Infantry, Airborne, and Engineer BGs can improvise a
crossing of a minor river or canal, even when the bridge is out, and thus can leave the map with
the blown bridge in any direction. Armored, Armored Infantry, and Recon BGs cannot do this.
If a Battle Group improvises a crossing of a destroyed minor bridge, they will lose all guns and
vehicles in their active team slots (they’re returned to the Forcepool) and will not be able to field
any guns or vehicles from their Forcepool until they are able to achieve a supply line equal to
what they had before they made the crossing (or at least a supply line to a minor supply depot).

> I always thought it would be better to wait until XXX Corp gets to the bridge before trying to capture and hold.  Now i know.  Going to be a hard go of it now but worth a shot.
