Short description
Fight the whole Italian campaign of World War II, from Husky landings of July 1943 till the final capitulation of 1945. Struggle your way up the boot as the Allies, or defend every inch of the peninsula as the Axis.
About this game
The Italian campaign of World War II, also called the Liberation of Italy or even the Italian civil war following the German occupation in September 1943, consisted of Allied and Axis military operations in and around Italy, from July 10, 1943 (Sicily Landing or operation “Husky”), to may 2,1945 (surrender of all the Army Group C in Italy). SGS Avalanche – from the name of the pivotal amphibious landing in mainland Italy, around Salerno, september 9, 1943 - covers this whole of almost two years campaign, one of the most important but still less known of the world war 2 in Europe, at the scale of one turn by week, with more or less regimental sized units (more than 1200 counters). As the Axis commander in chief – i.e German Marshall Albert Kesselring fort the most part of the game -, your main goal is to gain time. With various German forces sent by Berlin over time and the royal Italian army (initially) then northern fascist forces from the Italian Social Republic, you must hold as long as possible onto every part of Italia, an arduous task which is rendered even more difficult after (and if) the Italian surrender. During the whole campaign, the more you delay the enemy, the more the “liberation mark” stay low and the higher your chances to keep the upper hand, and win. If the liberation count drop under zero, you win. If it reaches 100, you lose. As simple as that. As the commander of Allied Armies in Italy – British general Harold Alexander then American general Mark Clark - you must make best use of the American, British, French and numerous other allied forces (among wich co-belligerant and resistance Italians) and to conquer Sicily first, then the Italian mainland all the way up to the north and as fast as you can, as the more and the earlier you conquer – especially Rome - the higher your chances of victory. The SGS Avalanche game contains various scenarios (some will be implemented after the initial release and for free, as usual with SGS games), covering different periods of the campaign in Italy, from July 1943 till May 1945. Small ones (lasting a few turns) cover the famous battles of Cassino, the Sicily (operation Husky), Anzio and Salerno landi…
