Italian (C.T.V. Fascists)Spanish Republican
Overview:
After the collapse of the third offensive on Madrid, Spanish Nationalist General Francisco Franco decided to continue with a fourth offensive aimed at closing the pincer around the capital. The Nationalist forces, although victorious at the Battle of the Jarama River, were exhausted and could not create the necessary momentum to carry the operation through. However, the Italians were optimistic after the capture of Málaga, and it was thought that the Italian forces could score an easy victory owing to the heavy losses sustained by the People's Republican Army at Jarama. Italian dictator Benito Mussolini endorsed the operation and committed Italian units to it. On the third day of the offensive, Italians began a successful advance on the positions of XI and XII International Brigades, who were forced to retreat down the main road. The Italian vanguard was stopped some 3 km before the town of Torija.Attacker: Italian (C.T.V. Fascists) (Black Arrow Division)
Defender: Spanish Republican (Edgar Andre Bn, XI International Bde)

| 2022-12-07 | (D) Jobbo Fett | vs | JobboFett | Spanish Republican win | A long drawn out fight between two exhausted forces ended with the Italians unable to nab the required number of multi-hex buildings. Despite artillery, flame tankettes, and vast numbers of blazes, the Republican line was capable of holding off valuable units in CC for many turns, while tankettes were stopped and blown up before any extreme amount of damage could be inflicted. I would suggest giving the Italians the balance, as the movement requirements can get pretty strict for the lowly 6-morale troops that will have to cross so much terrain. |
