Anzio:
Anzio is a small port 35 miles south of Rome. War has a way of making history in obscure places, like Guadalcanal, Stalingrad, Waterloo, and Anzio. Anzio is also the name of Avalon Hill's strategy game which makes it possible for you to recreate not only that famous invasion, but also the entire campaign, one of the most controversial of World War II.
Should Rommel have released the powerful garrison in North Italy to push the Allies back into the Sea? Did Mark Clark blunder in repeatedly attacking what military texts call the strongest defensive position in Europe? The unsurpassed realism of Anzio permits you to explore the answer to these, and many more questions.
The battle for Italy was important in that its progress determined the timetable of events for the coming D-Day invasion. To the Allies ANZIO was to be the bold stroke to break the back of the impregnable Cassino Line Defenses. To the Germans it became the largest self sustaining German prison camp in Europe!
