Overview:

In spite of a non-intervention policy adopted by the League of Nations, foreign nationals flocked to Spain by the thousands. As a result, both the Nationalists and the Republicans used foreign troops to fight their war. On March 8, the Nationalists opened an offensive with the objective of taking Guadalajara and surrounding Madrid. Near Brihuega, in one of the ironies that only a conflict as convoluted as this could produce, units of the same nationality clashed on the road to Guadalajara – the Garbaldi Battalion of the 13th International Brigade made up of Italian socialists, communists, and other anti-fascists clashed with the Black Flame Division of the regular Italian army.

2022-11-27(A) Jobbo Fett vs JobboFett Italian Republican winA close fight that saw two turns of vast numbers of troops breaking and being eliminated for failure to rout. The Republicans made good use of their turn 1 movement to nab two of the four buildings needed, and the back-and-forth between the two sides often came down to close combats, where the 1fp advantage (per squad) really shone. Although the CVP was lopsided, the dramatic end was far closer than the points would lead you to believe.
2020-12-09(D) wayne baumber vs Graham Smith Italian Nationalist winInteresting scenario, lots of low percentage shots, low morale and tin cans rattling around the battlefield. I thought it looks tough for the Republicans but I see that they have the advantage in ROAR playing's. Our game was a stalemate around the mansion on board 6 and all the action was centred on the woods in the middle of the board.
2020-06-15(A) Shane Pask vs Italian Republican winNationalists withdrew their tanks on turn 1 after 1 was forced to withdraw (Stun/recall) and 1 disabled its MG. Quickly settled in to a fairly static game after Nationalist thrust on 6K2 was rebuffed - 2 buildings each with Republicans slightly up on CVP. Turn 6 saw an all out push by Nationalists on 6K2 again - all they needed was one hex in 6K2 to win 2 buildings to 1. First push was broken, second push was broken, last push was fired on by both hexes as final fire - Boxcars! Now down to final CC. I managed an ambush but failed to kill. Nationalist also failed to kill so building remained in Republican hands for CVP victory 10-5.
