Madrid, Spain 1936-11-29 (1 other)

Overview:

Franco's offensive against Madrid had the capital in unrest. The streets were filled with refugees and livestock. Amidst the crisis the government was re-formed to include the Anarchists in a desperate attempt to maintain order through cooperation between different factions. To keep their momentum going, the Nationalists began an attack early on the morning of the 29thth against the Casa de Campo, a large shrub-covered and wooded area in Madrid. A battle began in earnest, centered around a key position of the Pozuelo Cemetery.. . . .To win Republicans must control at least one hex of the graveyard and ensure only nine or less CVPs of Nationalist units/prisoners exit off the south edge of board twelve.
