WORLD AT WAR # Italian Campaign 1943-44 (CIE Volume 3)

1-956099

Covers the Italian campaign, from the Allied invasion of Sicily through the Anzio campaign using the Campaigns in Europe (CIE) system, which focuses on the division/corps level. The system uses the same maps as War in Europe, but with updated graphics and a more detailed terrain analysis. The game system uses a Move/Fight-Fight/Move sequence of play to portray doctrinal differences among contending armed forces. It also uses HQ units to project logistics and combat support capabilities.

Each game turn (GT) represents around one week in clear weather and two weeks in mud and snow game turns. Each hex represents 20 miles (32.5 km) across. German, Finnish, and Western Allied units are shown mostly as division-sized units, with Soviet and Axis Allied units depicted as corps. Contains one 22 x 34-inch game map, 280 1/2-inch counters, rules, and a magazine.
