Place Port Demo +1 marker in Salerno
Place strength chits into two cups, separated by color
SEQUENCE OF PLAY
PRELIMINARY PHASE
Weather Phase
Check for weather, ground conditions, and/or wind per exclusive rules
GT 1: If roll Storm, roll again
If there are airborne operations this turn, roll 1d6 against rose next to
the map letter to find wind direction; place wind marker
Bookkeeping Phase (on GT 1 determine air points only)
Consult appropriate exclusive tables to determine number of air pts &
Support Pts available for turn; mark on track
A: Determine number of airfields owned & mark on Airfield Track
Count any last occupied by Allied unit w/no German adjacent
If # of airfields > 5, remove CV units
If GT 4, consider Crotone (C3433) to be occupied
If GT 4+ & # of airfields < 4, may get 2 Emergency air pts
May do this twice per scenario
Mark # of air points for both sides on track based on # of airfields
If Rain turn, halve (down) # of points; if Storm, zero out pts
Determine number of VPs controlled & mark on VP Track
Cant mix Allied nationality Support Pts
Add Support Pts for depots per exclusive rules
A: For each depot on a beach, give its nationality 1 Support Pt;
give 2 if in a minor port; give 3 if in a major port
G: On Airfield Chart, find DRM based on number of fields
captured by Allies
Roll; modified roll = # of Support Pts gained or lost
Adjust Port Demo & Rubble markers
A: If weather isnt Storm, for any friendly port that has a Port
Demo 2 marker & its been 2 turns since placed or that has a
Port Demo 1 marker, may spend 1 Support Pt of occupiers
nationality to make a Repair roll on Port Status Table
If result = repaired, decrement Demo marker by 1 level
A: If weather isnt Storm and a friendly port w/no Demo marker &
no depot has been in supply for 2 turns, may spend 2 US
Support Pts & 2 VPs to place second US depot & Port
garrison in hex
Check for variable reinforcements as per exclusive rules
If GT 4, 8, 12, or 16: Both players roll 2d6 on variable reinf chart,
cross-referencing w/VPs for captured airfields, locations, &
Maiori/Vetri loss to determine optional units received; if get
a result, may use those DRMs this turn or get listed
reinforcements (max 3/turn)
Can enter units this turn or any later turn but not before GT 5
Must pay Support Pts & VPs as per VP Cost Chart for any
variable units selected on turn units enter
A: Adjust army boundary markers
May place in any manner to separate the two Allied armies
Optional: Every 4th turn, remove chits from all units & return to pool

FIRST PLAYER TURN (Allies)
Mutual Supply Phase (not GT 1)
Consider an airborne unit to be in supply landing turn & following turn
A, GT 9+: May spend 1 Support Pt of units nationality to equip an in-
supply unit w/Pack transport; can equip a max of 3 units
Cant transfer marker after that; remove it when unit is removed

demolished, or across a destroyed bridge
May trace the non-road portion across an unbridged river
When tracing thru a transit track, must trace along a road
When tracing thru or to a transit track, cant trace if only
enemy is in track & cant trace thru more than 2 tracks

May have UK units trace to west edge Map C for
general supply but must trace to Taranto for Support Pts
A: May have ranger/cmdo trace to either Maiori or Vetri if
friendly; if lost & recaptured, must wait one turn to use

Mark a unit OOS if its line is > allowed distance; the road portion is
not connected to a source; or its line is blocked but theres a
friendly supplied unit within 3 hexes
Mark a unit Iso if it cant trace line due to EZOCs and its > 3 hexes
from another friendly supplied unit; if all friendly depots or
sources have been captured; or unit is OOS & only available
source is for another friendly nationality
Optl: If Iso unit already has 1 Iso marker on it, place a 2nd on it
If Iso unit has 2 Iso markers on it, roll 1d6; if roll = 3 or 4,
remove 1 step; if 5 or 6, remove 2 steps
If not Rain or Storm turn, may attempt to provide supply by air or sea
Cant provide air supply in Severe or Light Mistral either
Only Allies may provide sea supply
Pay 1 Support Point of units nationality per attempt
May go negative; if do, for all nationalitys units, mark in
supply units as OOS & OOS units as Iso
For sea supply, target unit must be on coastal hex within 20 hexes
of a friendly depot
Spend 1 air point or use 1 ship & roll 1d6; if target unit is adjacent
to an enemy unit, attempts successful on 1-3; if not, then 1-5
Roll only for air supply, not sea
G: For each roll of 6, add 1 to each successive roll
If attempts successful, replace Iso w/OOS or remove OOS
Replacement Phase
GTs 10, 12, 14, 16, 18: Check TRT Replacement Table for each

Xfer box on the next turn, then to the next map the next turn
If GT 7, cant move a unit from Map C to Map B
May have a ship move adjacent to an Allied port containing a
depot & a unit, pick up the unit, move together adjacent to
another Allied port w/a depot, & drop the unit there
Cant move unit this phase before transfer but may after
If moving, follow general movement rules
See TEC for costs and restrictions by class
Note that Map C has different costs than Maps A & B
Consider a unit w/12 MPs to be non-mech; 18 or 20 = mech
Cant move mech units into swamp, level 4+ terrain, and
across rivers except along roads
May have inf (mech or not) spend MA to cross river

 A: Must unstack UK & US units forced to stack from retreat
Remove any Reserve marker on unit after it moves
Check for modifiers to unit movement allowances
If mech unit is OOS, halve its MA (down) (minimum = 1)
If mech unit is Iso, its MA = 6
If non-mech unit is Iso, halve its MA (down)
Halve MA of any unit moving in Reserve Phase
For a recon unit, roll 1d6 & add # MPs equal to result
GT 1: Halve MA of all units (down)
Except: A, GT 1: May move a unit only 1 hex in the
Movement Phase it lands
Reduce MA of any airborne unit to 0 if it a) scattered to a
transit track this turn or b) is disrupted
Move units tactically
Check effects of ZOCs
Only Parent-level units have ZOCs in 6 adjacent hexes;
lower-level units have ZOCs only in their hexes
Except: A German unit of any size in a trench that starts
the game on map has a ZOC in 6 adjacent hexes

May move a unit into a transit track by entering a track from a
non-track hex adjacent to track & paying cost of hex exited
Place unit in either Waiting box; cant move unit further
G: If no Allied units have exited north, may place north map
edge reinforcements into one of track 1s Waiting boxes
A: Cant have units enter tracks 1, 2, or 3 until GT 4
For any unit in a Waiting box:
If it moved into Waiting last Movement Phase, must keep it
there this Movement Phase
If it was in Waiting all of last Movement Phase, move unit to
either of tracks Ready boxes
May do one of the following with any unit in a Ready box:
- Have it remain there
- Move it to a Waiting box of an adjacent track
- Have it enter either adjacent map at a hex adjacent to track
G: Check effects of re/capturing a port
If Allies re/capture, make Demolition roll on Port Status Table
If result = 5, place Port Demo 1 marker; if 6, Port Demo 2
Do not make this roll for initial capture of Taranto
If Germans recapture, roll; if result = 5 or 6, increment any Port
Demo 1 marker in hex to 2 or place a Port Demo 1 marker
Check stacking at end of phase; max units/hex = 3
Owner eliminates any excess units
A: Dont count depots but can have only 1 depot per hex
A: Cant voluntarily stack UK & US units
Except: May do so in a transit track or w/Darby
Check engineering works

Remove any entrenchments no longer occupied by building side
Copyright 2016 Richard J. Vohlers
Combat Phase
If there are units of both sides in a transit track, both roll 1d6 for each
such track; if one rolls a 6 or both roll 3 then conduct combat
between units on that track with phasing player as attacker
Attacker determines order of combats; resolve one before starting next
Except: If units in hex are attacking 2+ hexes, resolve all combats
then implement results as attacker chooses
G, GTs 1 & 2: May have any friendly stack in a trench attack 1 adjacent
Allied stack; roll 1d6; if result = 6, inflict 1 step loss on Allied
stack; if result = 1, place Pinned marker on stack; else no effect
German player selects unit to take loss
Cant use normal combat for unit in a trench but can for others
Dont pay Support Points for any of these attacks
Pay 1 Support Point of attackers nationality per attack
Except: If all attackers are airborne & its their first combat
May go negative; if do, for all nationalitys units, mark in supply
units as OOS & OOS units as Iso
If both UK & US attack in transit track combat, have each pay 1 pt
Determine # of attackers, defenders
May attack all adjacent enemy units; not required
May attack different hexes w/different units in same stack
If attack, must attack all enemies adjacent to attacking units
Except: Need not attack all adjacent enemies if attacker in
city, town, or trench unless defender is in higher terrain
Except: Need not attack all adjacent enemies if attacker in
level 4 or higher terrain unless defender is in higher
terrain
May use only 1 Parent unit/hex (owners choice) + 2 others/hex
May use other Parent units in hex for div integrity
May use any number of Parent units in a transit track combat
A: Cant attack w/UK & US units together unless in a transit track
A: Cant attack with a unit that has a Pinned marker
A: If defending stack has both UK & US units in it, then only 1
nationality can provide arty, air, or ship support
A: May count Darby as either UK or US for both of above
Optl: If defender has one Iso marker on it, place a second on it
Determine shifts; attacker announces all then defender announces
1R/1L: Elevation: For each terrain level that the highest
attacker/defender is above the highest defender/attacker
Consider city, swamp, & sea hexes to be level 1
Consider all units in transit track combat to be on same level
1-2R/1L: Parent Integrity:
Attacking: Get 1 shift left per Parent formation (max 2) if all
Parents of same formation are adjacent to the defender
& at least 1 attacks
Defending: Get 1 shift right per formation (max 1) if
defending Parents adjacent to or stacked w/1 other
Parent of same formation
Both: All units of formation must be in play, none cadre, &
nationalitys Support Pts 0
Disregard armor or engineer attached to formation
0-6R/1L: Combined Arms:
Attacker: 1 shift right per stack w/infantry & armor in same
hex & involved in same combat
Negate attacking CA shifts if defender has infantry &
(armor or anti-tank) or is in trench
Count regular inf, mech inf, & engineer as infantry
Max shift = 1R if all attackers coming across river sides
Defender: 1 shift left if defender has armor & attacker has no
armor or anti-tank
Both: Consider unit w/(CA) on it to have armor & infantry
Consider any unit with an AFV icon to be armor
1-2R/1L: May provide 1 support shift per arty unit if: its w/in 3
of defender, its not adjacent to enemy, it hasnt fired this
phase, & its nationalitys Support Pts 0
For combat in a transit track, may use only arty in that track
May only use arty that is in full supply
3
 1R/1L: May spend 1 air pt per combat
Roll 1d6; if result w/in required range, air unit provides 1
shift otherwise none
If not using an Emergency pt, roll on appropriate
column on Airfield chart to see if air pt is effective
A: If # of captured airfields 5 & there are no CVs on
Maps A & B, cant use air on Map B & must use -1
DRM on Map A
A: If using Emergency air pt, must spend 2 Support Pts
of attackers nationality
Cant use air points in a transit track combat
If successful & defenders in a town or city, place a Rubble
marker in the hex if theres not one already there
1-2R/1-2L: A: May allocate naval fire if combat in same zone as
ship, ship isnt moving between zones, & defender in range
See exclusive rules for shifts and ranges
Use 2 shifts if BB or M supporting, 1 shift if CL supporting
May use or attempt to use only 1 ship per combat
Cant use a ship on its Fired side
Must move ship into a blue outlined sea hex to use
If its GT 1 to 4, must roll before moving a ship into
such a hex; if result 4, then ship cant enter hex
May still use ship that fails if target still in range
Can make only 1 attempt/ship/turn
If target is outside of ships range from Summary Table but
no more than 1.5* range (rounded up), roll; if result 3
then provide shift else no do not use any shift
Flip ship to Fired side when used
Cant use naval fire in a transit track combat
If defenders in a town or city, place a Rubble marker in the
hex if theres not one already there
0R/1L: Defenders hex contains a Rubble marker
1R/0L: Attacker includes an engineer & defender is in a trench
0R/1L: Defenders hex contains a Town
1R/1L: Against a combined UK/US stack in a transit track combat
Determine involved unit strengths
Reveal strength chits for those Parent units w/chits
Choose strength chits for those Parent units w/out chits
Pick from matching color pool & cross-ref class letter
Use stronger side
Cant see enemy chits until this step
If this is the first combat for a cadre that received a repl point
& has no chit, pick 2 chits & use the lower rated one
Use 1 for defense strength of depot but only if its alone in hex
Cant attack w/a depot
Modify for supply status
If attacking unit is OOS, halve (down) its strength
If attacking unit is Iso, use strength of 1
If defending unit is Iso, halve (down) its strength
Modify defenders strength for terrain
*2 if all attackers across river
*2 if defender in trench
*3 if defender in trench & all attackers across river
*2 if defender attacked only from a sea hex
Sum totals for all involved units
Consider strength of arty unit = 1 if adjacent to enemy
Determine base ratio & CRT column based on terrain; net out both
sides column shifts & apply to find final CRT column
If > 1 terrain type in hex, use type most favorable to defender
Cant shift columns off CRT either direction
Use level 2-3 line for all transit track combats
Roll 2d6, find result, and implement (loser 1st; defender 1st on B)
Results: parenthesized number = mandatory steps lost
Nonparenthesized number = hexes retreated or steps lost
If Breakthru result, cant convert hexes to steps lost
Attacker must remove first step loss from participating armor
All units in hex affected even those not part of combat
Copyright 2016 Richard J. Vohlers
Adjust VPs for losses as per VP Cost Chart
If Parent unit takes a loss: Flip chit if on front; flip unit & remove
chit if on back or back strength = 0; remove a 1 step unit
Steps: 3: if original chit 3+ 2: if original chit 1 or 2
1: non-Parent unit 0: depot unit
If Breakthru result, get Support Point back
Place any removed chit back into appropriate cup
Check to see if a battalion has a flip side; if it does, its on its
front, & it takes a loss, flip it
Conduct retreats
If Breakthru result, attacker chooses path else owner does
Priorities: 1) Empty hex not in EZOC; 2) Friendly occ hex not in
EZOC; 3) Into EZOC, losing 1 step per stack per EZOC hex
If possible, must retreat toward available supply source
Can have ranger/cmdo ignore first ZOC
Cant retreat into a hex prohibited to the retreating unit
May retreat into a transit track if not enemy occupied
Cannot retreat armor, arty across unbridged river hexside
If unit would be forced to retreat off map or cant retreat full
distance, it must take remaining retreat hexes as step losses
Eliminate any depot that is forced to retreat; place it on the turn
track as a reinforcement 2 turns in the future
If first depot of a nationality killed, remove its Support Pts
If all depots of a nationality are dead, zero out its Support Pts
May retreat into an overstacked situation, but dont count retreated
units for combat this phase; if others in hex suffer an adverse
result, eliminate retreated units
If must retreat from transit track combat, may have unit 1) retreat
to an adjacent track & stop; 2) retreat full retreat distance to
an adjacent map, using a road if available; 3) take step losses
to fulfill result & remain in track
Must select track or map that some retreaters entered from
If result was B1-(1), only attacker can convert retreat to loss
Remove any trench marker from a stack that retreats

Must enter losers hex first
May deviate mechanized units after 1st hex
Must have others follow defenders retreat path
Cant advance into a hex prohibited to the advancing unit
May retreat into a transit track if not enemy occupied
Up to allowed distance
May have unit advance the retreat portion of result that was
not taken as step losses
If Breakthru result, may advance mech unit 1 more hex
Must stop unit if it enters an EZOC except in 1st hex
If Breakthru result, disregard a retreated units ZOC
when advancing a unit
Can have ranger/cmdo ignore first ZOC
Must stop unit if it enters a Rubble hex that existed before
this combat
If result is B1-(1) and defender vacates hex, attacker may take
a second step loss and enter hex
If combat was across unbridged river, may advance inf &
mech inf only 1 hex; cant advance armor or arty
Ignore any advances after a transit track combat
A: Eliminate any unit still in a sea hex at the end of combat
