The second of four operational level games (Sicily, Salerno, Anzio and Med War) simulating the Battle for Italy in World War II using the Westwar Gaming System developed by Vanguard Games. This game represents the Allied invasion in southern Italy and was first published in Strategy & Tactics magazine #150. Errata was published in S&T #153. Errata was published in S&T #155.
Included are a 16 page rulebook, 200 counters, 22"X34" mapsheet (which links to other maps in the series) and player charts and tables.
The Allies are trying to force the Axis player to completely retreat from southern Italy. Victory points are calculated based on the number of units captured, reduced, or retreated from the map... the difference between the Axis total and the Allied total determines who wins.
Three scenarios are provided: the historical situation, a 'What if?' scenario, and a scenario which links with 'The Italian Campaign: Sicily' game.
