Overview:

After the vital road through the center of Sicily was assigned to Montgomery's forces, Patton was free to do an end run around the western side of the island, racing along the coast. Occasional resistance was met, but quickly overpowered by superior American firepower. As the Americans approached the important town of Palermo, the Italians gave it one last try.

2021-07-11(A) walter mcwilliams vs Tom Kearney Italian winA fun fast paced scenario. I managed to come up 1 building short against Tom's tenacious defenders who managed a very active sniper early and must have well drenched in vino as they withstood withering -2 MC. Still great fun and a hardy recommendation to give this little known scenario a try.
2019-08-11(A) Tuomo Lukkari vs Sami Pelkonen American win[Imported from ROAR]
2019-07-23(D) Jeff B vs Magnus Rimvall American win3.5 hrsThe Americans surprised me by completely ignoring the close eastern compound and going strictly for the western village and the peninsular village. I gave my Italians in the middle a decent chance of holding out due to the nice woods clump, but when my HMG broke on Turn 2 and he positioned his mortars to make the fringes of the woods less habitable that feeling quickly subsided. I should have went on the offensive at this point with the rather large force I had guarding the east, but I didn't make that move until too late in the game. The Americans ended up bullying my Italians into submission. Another enjoyable ESG scenario.
2017-06-11(D) Rich Weiley vs Adam Lunney Italian winJunoBear 2017 - Round three
2016-11-24(D) Paolo Cariolato vs Federico Corso Italian winA welcomed all infantry scenario after tens of tank battles on the eastern front.
IMHO the american must aim for the village in the center of the map and the other one near the hill, concentrating on those two makes the victory conditions attainable, otherwise it will become too spread out to make his superior firepower be felt. Nice scenario and playing the italians is always a nightmare.
