Overview:

he Canadian 1st Infantry Division, protected on their left by 40 Commando, landed on the beaches southwest of Pachino. While the Canadians advanced without any noticeable resistance from the Italians, the same could not be said of the Royal Marine Commandos. Here the Blackshirt Battalion of the 206th Coastal Division launched a counterattack supported by heavy mortar and anti-tank fire. The fanatical Blackshirts halted the lightly armed commandos, threatening to separate them from the Canadians to their right.
Attacker: Italian (Elements of Blackshirt Battalion, 206th Coastal Division)

2021-02-02(A) David Garvin vs Ted Wilcox British winThis was a close one. In the end, just as in real life, the Canadian Mortar unit was the deciding factor. In spite of effective Italian fire, the mortars were too much and the game ended at the end; not enough Italians south of the river.
2019-03-22(D) Tom Kearney vs Lindsey Murillo British winMy British were able to wear down the Italians on the south side of the river for the win. There was no possible way to capture both bridges for the automatic victory, though.
