The story of the fractious relationship between the Führer, the Oberkommando der Wehrmacht and the succession of generals responsible for the defence of France, as the Reich's Fortress Europe crumbles and the German army is forced back against the borders of the Fatherland. This is the beginning of Gotterdammerung, the Twilight of Hitler's Reich.
