This scenario is an ironed version of the official SSG Operation Shingle for
Battles in Italy. It is designed to provide a common version for PBEM… as well as,
a version without the data entry errors for those who don’t care to mess around in

experience.

According to General Alexander's dispatch to the War Office and a book published by
the Archives of the French Army, on the 22nd of January, the 3ème Groupe de Tabors
Marocains and the 4ème Groupe de Tabors Marocains were on the Front line (not the
1er and the 3ème as created in the game). The 1er Groupe de Tabors Marocains
arrived in April 1944.
So Groupe de Goums should be renamed Groupe de Tabors and the 1er should be
replaced by the 4ème.
One groupe de Tabors consists of 3 Tabors (sort of regiment). One Tabor is composed
of 3 Goums (sort of Battalion).
Download and run the installation setup file, this should install all files and
associated sub directories into a ..scenarios/Run5 Operation Shingle Variant folder
under your main Battles in Italy Folder. Start Battles in Italy up, and you should
see the scenario listed under the Italy Battleset.
