ENH Canadians In Italy - Crossing The Moro (vs. 2.0)

Well... I've kept you waiting again. But here it is: version two of the Moro Crossing scenario. Thanks to Major Destruction's valuable tips this should be a more realistic version. Have FUN!

Ortona - revisited...

Well, I've kept you waiting for a few weeks. Sorry for that. I had a very busy time at work as well as at home, and the last week was spent on vacation with my lovely wife.

But... now I'm back - with a vengeance! I redid the Moro River Crossing scenario after receiving some great tips from Major Destruction. Am now testing the "Gully" scenario. After that there'll probably be some work on a little scenario depicting Captain Paul Triquet's Company's battle for Casa Berardi. And then - at last - the final Ortona scenario will be made.

The Moro and Gully scenarios will probably be published next week. Casa Berardi and Ortona will take a little while longer. So please bear with me - and don't forget to check back!

________SCENARIO NOTES:**
Cross the River Moro and open the road to Ortona.**

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND:**
The Road to Ortona started for the Canadians here as they took over from the weary British 78th. The 8th Army had pushed the Germans across theMoro river. The 1st Canadian divisional commander, Chris Vokes, was signalled on December 4th to "get over the River Moro as soon as possible".Vokes chose to cross the Moro at three points. At the modern highway 16 that ran along the coast, at the town of San Leonardo and st a village calledVilla Rogatti two miles upstream. The Hastings and Prince Edward regiment (the Hasty P's) were to establish the bridgehead on the right, theSeaforth Highlanders of Canada in the center and the Princess Particia's Canadian Light Infantry (PPCLI) on the left supported by elements of theBritish 44th Royal Tank Regiment.**Opposing them were the 200th Panzer Grenadier regiment and the 90th Panzer Grenadier regiment who had blown both the bridge at San Leonardoand along highway 16. They had settled in for a fight.**The divisional engineers informed their commander that it was not possible to build an assualt crossing at Villa Rogatti. Much to his chagrin when hehad handed over that part of the front to the Indians they had errected "Impossible Bridge" 3 days later.**The Canadians would eventually cross the Moro and push into San Leonardo but not until after the Germans extracted a heavy price. The bloodiestmonth in the entire Italian campaign for the Canadians was just beginning.**

______DESIGNER NOTES**
This scenario is the first of a series depicting the battles in and around Ortona, a little town in Italy that ater the battle was commonly known as Little Stalingrad.**This scenario was designed C&C Friendly, using the Low Carnage Settings 90S, 80H, 100RR, XXXTQ, 110TT, 150IT, 180AvS, 120AvA, 150SOF / Command & Ctrl ON / AutoRally OFF to reduce unrealistic SPWAW slaughter.**

SCENARIO NOTES:**

Just imagine. Imagine that the Coral Sea Battle had been an overwhelming succes for the Japanese. It left them enough safe bases to built a magnificent presence just to the north of Australia. Imagine Australias forces were still spread thin. In February 1943 the Japanese built-up reached a strength where they were able to sent an invasion force to Australia. Their main goals were to take as many harbours and airfields as possible.**

You command the Australian forces near Townsville in NE Australia. Your forces are spread all over the countryside. The latest news that has reached you is that the Japanese have landed to the south of Townsville on a non-defended stretch of beach. Their forces seem to be on their way to your chemical factory and your harbor.** 

Organise your forces and meet the Japanese before they outflank you and take Townsville Harbour.**

DESIGNER NOTES**

Use the first turn to get accquainted with your forces. Organise your defence and throw back the Japanese. On the upper left hand corner you will find some American armour to bolster your defences. Use them well! Have FUN!
