On 22 January, VI Corps landed at Anzio to outflank the Gustav Line. The Allies spent the first few days consolidating their bridgehead. By the 29th, VI Corps commander, Major General John Porter Lucas, was finally ready to break out. The Germans had used the intervening time wisely, and were able to contest the Allied advance. The British on the right had taken the town of Aprilia and continued to drive to the north. At 0630 on 31 January, the 1st Battalion of the Irish Guards-with the support of American tank destroyers-headed to Campoleone to take the town.Attacker: Allied (British/American) ((British) 1st Battalion, Irish Guards and (American) Company C, 894th Tank Destroyer Battalion)

| 2025-02-17 | (D) Dave Mareske | vs | Dennis Dowd | German win | Slow progress across the open ground by the Allies kept them out of enough victory buildings. The Germans had some upfront defenses along with the AT gun on Bd 4, which ended up destroying two tanks before it broke. The Brits also were pinning a fair amount which prevented some complete moves in the middle turns. | ||
