Overview:

"Big Test" -- The Italian invasion of Greece began well enough, but it was no Blitzkrieg. The terrain was rough, and the Greek resistance tough. As the initial Italian advance slowed, the Greeks prepared to counterattack. Italian General Mario Girotti’s light infantry and 3rd Alpine Division had proceeded as far south as Vovousa, and captured the village. The Greeks counterattacked there with their most elite formation, a detachment specially composed of one battalion of cavalry, and one battalion of artillery from the 51st Regiment. Led by the brave and able Colonel Davakis, they viciously launched themselves at the village.
Attacker: Greek (Pindus Detachment, 51st Infantry Regiment)
Defender: Italian ("Julia" Light Infantry Division)

2026-09-26(D) Jobbo Fett vs RootinPutin Italian winA tough fight await the both of us, with the Greeks mastering the art of shooting at the various defensive terrain, but not having the tenacity to follow up on their attacks to get into the dug-in Italian positions. There was a neat back and forth, plenty of snake eyes, and surprises (like wire in woods).

Overall, I'm a little confused by what the L3/35 is supposed to provide (outside of a lucky overrun or two), similar to the Greek Gun. There are a limited number of spots where you can reach out and poke at the upper level building locations without much danger, but the need to move the gun, set up, and the Italians being able to just move away makes it feel rather pointless. Not a bad scenario, and I would suggest the Greek making 1 or 2 doom stacks and pushing up gradually. (And don't forget the +1 Broken Morale versus Italians!!!)
