Primary Objectives:*
Deploy and then select ONLY one of the three paths in order to be redirected to the next mission:*

1_. If you select the Maximum Reinforcements you will be awarded 100 extra core points and you will score a Decisive Loss (0 + 1 next scenario = 1 campaign points).*
*
2._ If you select the Limited Reinforcements you will be awarded 50 extra core points and you will score a Marginal Victory (2 + 1 next scenario = 3 campaign points).*
*
3._ If you select the 0 Extra Points (continue your mission) you will be awarded 0 extra core points and you will score a Decisive Victory (3 + 3 next scenario = 6 campaign points).*

*
NOTES:*
*
For normal level players I strongly advise you to choose the first option and receive the extra 100 points core force.*

Historical Background*
*
The Evacuation from Megara, night 25,26 and day 26 April  *
(text from www.nzetc.org)*
*
On the morning of 24 April Allen Group (16,17 Brigades) had halted near Elevsis, taking advantage of the olive groves and waiting to embark that night from the beaches at Megara. During the day, however, the overall plan had to be changed:1 the brigades would move across the Corinth Canal to the Argos area and probably from there to Kalamata. Nineteenth Brigade Group, the rearguard which was to come south that night, 24,25 April, from the Thermopylae line, would take cover near Megara on 25 April and embark from there on the night of 25,26 April.*
As there were several groups already in that area, among them the New Zealanders from Voula, it was doubtful if all the troops could be embarked that night. Orders were therefore sent from General Wilson's headquarters instructing Brigadier Vasey to retain sufficient vehicles to transport the surplus to the Marathon beaches, from which they could be evacuated on the night of 26,27 April. Unfortunately, when the orders were received most of the vehicles had been wrecked, those remaining being sufficient for only 300 men.*
