I did a quick check this morning and couldn't find one, but does anybody know about a Dunkirk scenario? I was watching an old 1941 movie (a Yank in the RAF) and thought how interesting (not to mention difficult and educational) such a scenario would be. Any thoughts/news?

It would be kind hard to create such a scenario, as dunkirk wasn't a single engagement, it was a big battle that lasted more than a few minutes or hours, this would give us a great campaign, with your british (or cut-off french) troops fighting against the panzer flood with little more than boys at rifle, i'll dig some info, i may do this if i can get the propper info on forces engaged

Here are some links to articles relating to the battle:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Dunkirk

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_France#BEF_at_Dunkirk

Notice that there are very little tactical numbers as in anything lower than Corps or Brigade. I will try to locate orders of battle for the belligerants but no promises.

Found what I was looking for:

And here is the BEF paeg for 1940:
