zmoney Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 It says in the GL description (on the homepage) that a commonwealth campaign was included for their side of operation Husky. Was it not included after all or am I totally blind and just overlooked it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warts 'n' all Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 You might want to reread that page. It doesn't include the phrase "commonwealth campaign". It says that the Commonwealth side are represented in "stunning detail". Sadly, in regards to "Husky," that is confined to stand alone battles, and the Fallschirmjager campaign where you are playing against the British. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the clarification. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warts 'n' all Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Perhaps one of the scenario designers might see this thread, and pick up the gauntlet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

umlaut Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 (edited) OK, now I found it. It wasnt among the campaigns but placed in the scenario section:http://www.thefewgoodmen.com/tsd3/cm-fortress-italy/cm-fortress-italy-add-ons/gl-welcome-to-sicily/ Edited August 13, 2019 by umlaut 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketman Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I had no idea that this campaign existed, nice to know As there are no commando units (yet) - what is used for the No 40 RM Commando? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warts 'n' all Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 I've just begun the first mission. A beach landing on a great looking map. Wish my men luck. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warts 'n' all Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Very true, it is a real beach, with lots of gullies between the dunes to move through. I went for attacking down the left flank, using my Brens for suppression, then adding the MMG's and Mortars to the mix as they came ashore, rather than wait for the tanks and naval guns. I only swung right after the naval bombardment was over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borg Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 I so love the setting of this. Since parts of Op Husky left from Maltese shores . Thanks for the tips. once - years ago - there was an attempt to make a what if scenario - for Op Herkules ! For CMFI. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umlaut Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 In my opinion, this is a great little campaign - with one flaw. The maps and scenarios are very well made, but unfortunately I think the briefings are a bit sloppy: Not enough info on when reinforcement are arriving - or even where. In the last scenario you dont know at which end of the map the reinforcements will arrive. That is a real pity as everything else is so well made. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you that a bit more info would be nice.With regards the timing of reinforcements, perhaps the designer is trying to reflect the actual uncertain nature of the invasion itself. As for where your reinforcements will arrive, you need a very good memory of the previous two battles. I'll add some more thoughts once I finish the fight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
