Overview:
In spite of a non-intervention policy adopted by the League of Nations, foreign nationals flocked to Spain by the thousands. As a result, both the Nationalists and the Republicans used foreign troops to fight their war. On March 8, the Nationalists opened an offensive with the objective of taking Guadalajara and surrounding Madrid. Near Brihuega, in one of the ironies that only a conflict as convoluted as this could produce, units of the same nationality clashed on the road to Guadalajara – the Garbaldi Battalion of the 13th International Brigade made up of Italian socialists, communists, and other anti-fascists clashed with the Black Flame Division of the regular Italian army.Attacker: Republican (Garibaldi Battalion)
Defender: Nationalist (Black Flame Division and attached Armor)

| 2022-12-22 | (D) mark Ruggiero | vs | republican | Nationalist win | Lots of close combat and the nationalist did well. Very close game and could have gone either way. The Nationalist managed to break the MA on their little tankettes. fun scenario | ||
| 2022-11-27 | (A) Jobbo Fett | vs | JobboFett | Republican win | A close fight that saw two turns of vast numbers of troops breaking and being eliminated for failure to rout. The Republicans made good use of their turn 1 movement to nab two of the four buildings needed, and the back-and-forth between the two sides often came down to close combats, where the 1fp advantage (per squad) really shone. Although the CVP was lopsided, the dramatic end was far closer than the points would lead you to believe. | ||
| 2022-11-11 | (A) Dmitry Klyuykov | vs | Herbert | Republican win (VASL Log) | Another great close game with Herbert. Republicans started for the peace, breaking their MGs trying to hit some sitting ducks tanks but were able to reach the solid positions in the village. Nationalists occupied upper floor of the manor to cover the whole place with 3 MMGs fire (we used Nationalists balance). Both sides reaped CVP in CCs and finishing broken low-morale units. Tanks were doing a great job in hindering the Republican fire with VBM, but one tank were recalled after the Stun and another became blazing wreck after lucky Street Fighting. On the last Turn Nationalists were able to capture the second victory building, but in the last CC of the game Republican rolled an Ambush and safely withdrawn to the second hex of controlled building. | ||
| 2022-08-04 | (D) Andy Beaton | vs | James Rimmer | Republican win | Republican machineguns in the big building broke up my attacks and allowed Repub troops to swarm mine in close combat. |
