Overview
A Raging Storm - The Campoleone Salient, February 3-4, 1944, is the eleventh game in the Tactical Combat Series (TCS) from The Gamers. The game is set around the British 1st Infantry Division's defense of the Campoleone Salient, Anzio, 3-4 February 1944. "The German counterattacks against the Anzio beachhead were some of the bloodiest of World War II. To those involved, the fighting was reminiscent to WWI trench warfare. A Raging Storm covers the first of several German attacks. The brunt of this assault fell on the British 1st Infantry Division, whose defense demonstrated the tenacity and fighting qualities of the British Soldier." - From the introduction Game Scale: Turn: 20 minutes Hex: 125 yards / 114 meters Units: Infantry platoons, individual vehicles Game Inventory: Two 22 x 34" full-color mapsheets Four dual-side printed countersheets (3 combat, 1 markers - 980 1/2" counters) One 28-page TCS version 3.1 system rulebook One 24-page A Raging Storm game specific rulebook Two 4-page TCS version 3.1 Charts & Tables folders Three Player Aid cards Two 6-sided dice Solitaire Playability: Medium Complexity Level: High Players: 1 or more Playing Time: 6-20 hours
