Chris Stoesen: Company and Platoon level scenarios for the Eastern Front, 1941. In July of 1941, the 80° Roma Regiment of the Pasubio Division boarded a train bound for Romania. Along with the rest of the Italian Expeditionary Corps in Russia (Corpo di Spedizione Italiano), they would advance through the Ukraine alongside their German allies. In the coming months, the 80° would be engaged in brutal fighting across 1400 miles of the Eastern Front – covering most of that on foot.
In The Name of Roma is a wargame supplement that contains 30 company and platoon level scenarios covering the actions of the 80a Roma Regiment from August to December of 1941. You’ll follow the 80th from the open steppe to the Donetz industrial basin, including the amphibious attacks across the Dnieper, and the fateful decision of Column Chiarimonti to attempt to seize Nikitovka. The scenario bundle includes:
• 30 scenarios divided in six distinct campaigns
• Historical background information and period area maps
• Italian and Soviet briefing for each scenario
• Formation information and stats for Early War Italians and Soviets
Though primarily written for the Too Fat Lardies rules systems I Ain’t Been Shot Mum, Troops, Weapons, and Tactics and the newly released Chain of Command, the scenarios in In The Name of Roma work equally well with Arc of Fire, Bolt Action, Flames of War or your favorite rules system. In The Name of Roma is available for $11 US. Send the money via PayPal to cstoesen@corecard.com and I will e-mail the PDF to you as soon as possible. For more information, please visit my blog.
