Overview:

Operation "Husky", the Allied Invasion of Sicily, had the Canadian invasion forces landing on the Sicilian shores in a wide, curving bay known as Costa dell'Ambra, Code-named "Bark West". Bark West was divided into two sandy beaches, "Roger" on the right and "Sugar" on the left. The Hasting and Prince Edward Regiment and the Royal Canadian Regiment of the First Brigade were assigned to Roger Beach, while Sugar was given to the Second Brigade's Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry and Seaforth Highlanders. Three miles inland lay the main Canadian objective, the Pachino airfield, near the town of the same name.

2015-09-21(D) nathan wegener vs James T Italian winSuprisingly fun for a fixed defense scenario. The unmanned guns, dust and low morale make for a unique situation. Diced my opponent badly...
