About the game
The Last Hundred Yards Volume 5: For King & Country joins the Last Hundred Yards family as British and Canadian Forces retake western Europe from German occupation. The pack contains ten/twelve Missions that occurred in 1944 during the Normandy landings and breakout phases from June through August and Operation Market Garden in the Netherlands in September. By 1944, the Red Devils of the British 1st Airborne had a proud tradition of parachute and glider drops in North Africa and Crete. In For King & Country, you will take the experience gained from Airborne over Europe and extend it to these British elite forces for airborne missions into Arnhem as part of Operation Market Garden and behind the German lines at the Caen Canal in the dark hours before D-Day. For King & Country is tactical small-unit combat in post D-Day France and the Netherlands with missions focused on British, Canadian, and German forces. Players must own The Last Hundred Yards Volumes 1 and 2 to play For King & Country. . —description from the publisher
