Background
----------
Iceland42: Operation Iceberg

	With the entrance of America into the war in 1941, Germany's
		 position to attack Atlantic sea convoys has been 
	delt a severe blow. To bolster our presence in the area, 
	High Command has ordered you to occupy the island of Iceland 
	in order to provide a base for U-boats and aircraft operating 
	in the North Atlantic.
		Your starting point will be the Faroes islands, taken
	a week earlier during nightime landings, and held by the 
	Luftwaffe in the face of a determined Royal Navy counterattack.
		Despite best efforts to keep the upcoming landings a 
	secret, British code-breakers have intercepted several of our
 	naval communications which have allowed a joint defense
	force of British and Norwegian troops, along with Icelandic
	militia units, to begin "digging in" in anticipation of the 
	landings. With 5 full days to prepare, defenses on the island
	have been improved significantly.
		Russia, seeing the possibility of conflict with Germany
	drawing near, has sent a clandestine force to the island to 
	further bolster it's defenses, realizing that any future aid
	it might receive from the Allies would be shipped through the 
	North Atlantic.
		The United States, recognizing the threat to it's own
	merchant marine, has sent a force to support the island; but as 
	of now it is believed to still be enroute.

Remarks:

The Iceland Flag will appear as Polish Flag (Reason: impossible to change the flags
in AG game). if you want a Full Customized Game Try the PG DOS Version of the Scenario.


Tactics:

		It is of vital imporance that your paratroopers secure
	an airfield as soon as possible, as the only Axis airfield is on
	Faroes Island, quite some distance away!
		Weather may be bad, so plan accordingly! Failure to do so
	could be decisive!
		Watch for the American reinforcements, they could cause
	problems for those caught unprepared.

		Good luck! I hope you enjoy the scenario!
