This is a traditional wargame that simulates the WWII invasion of Sicily and Italy between the years of 1943 - 1945. Players can choose to play the full Campaign game ('43-'45) or one of the two smaller games - "Winter Line"; the first part of the Allied conquest of Italy (July '43 to April '44) or the "Gothic Line"; the final phase of the war in Italy (May '44 to April' 45). The game contains 196 counters (showing strength and movement) ranging from Battalion to Division sized, an Appearance Chart displaying the arrival times and an oversized map of Sicily and Italy (22" X 28" )
