Italy went to war in June 1940 with only 70 "modern" tanks in its inventory - and those were woefully obsolete. Over the next three years Italian tank crews earned an unmatched reputation for bravery, but hundreds died needlessly in their flaming "iron coffins." Better tanks could easily have been made available, but the economic and political realities of fascism made this impossible. Divisione Corazzata is a supplement for the Panzer Grenadier series of games. Unlike most of our other Panzer Grenadier games and supplements, it covers battles that never happened. Divisione Corazzata includes just this booklet. Playing all of the scenarios in this supplement requires use of the "licensed tanks" pieces provided to Gold Club members on the 2007 supplement sheet, and also available for free download on the Avalanche Press website (http://www.avalanchepress.com/FascistTanks.php). |
