Overview:

Determined to present Hitler with a fait accompli in the Balkans, Mussolini launched another ill-advised, ill-planned and ill-informed campaign, this time from Albania into the mountains of Epirus, Pindus, and Macedonia, just in time for winter. The Italian offensive was launched on October 28th in a driving rain that negated any air cover. . .

2020-07-05(D) Craig Renier vs Keith Hiljus Italian winGreeks attempted opening move into 2 residual which ended up being devastating. The Greek flanking units set up an effective block, but the rest of the Greek force could not catch up giving the Italians enough space to exit on Turn 5.
2020-05-20(A) Vilis Pavulans vs Benjamin Steinberg Greek winVery tough scenario for the Italians. Have no idea about how the Italians are supposed to win this.
2020-01-11(D) John Smith vs Scott Italian winA wacky scenario. It's reported as being very unbalanced, so we gave the Italians the balance rule. Victory, IMO, hinges on 2 things. First, the Italians cannot dawdle, the majority of their units have to be moving at all times, never Prep firing, and moving CX every chance. If they don't it's impossible to exit. It's literally a sprint. Leave a few squads in strategic locations as delaying forces.

Second, if the Greek get their reinforcements on turn 2 you might as well just end the scenario. The Italians are easy to break and have horrible ELR. If the Greek don't get reinforcements until turn 4 the Italians can win.

Was still a fun "hide and seek", hot pursuit type of scenario.
