by far the best scenarios in the entire ATS system. Excellent work
A very fun and addictive game designed by a true ATS fan: Andrea Garello. One of the most enjoyable games from the "golden era" of ATS.
Pros: replayability; tension; fun factor.
Cons: only 4 scenarios.
A hidden gem. 3 people giving it a "10" at the same time.
I have played each of the first two scenarios twice. Very enjoyable.
There are 4 scenarios set on a medium-small map. The scenarios are medium sized, featuring a fair number of tokens on each side and lasting around 4 hours each.
Not a complete game though, as you need to find the Russian counters and the rules elsewhere.
An outstanding addition to the ATS line up. Andrea Garello has produced four exceptionally tense, interesting and superbly balanced scenarios. The extras push this one into the "10" range for me; variable reinforcements that inject uncertainty (and increase replayability), a dash of chrome for colour (Italian gun jamming, molotov cocktails) and selectable victory conditions. I found it remarkable how quickly the tide could turn for either side over the course of a turn or two with victory hexes changing hands many times during the game. I'd give this an "11" if I could - fantastic stuff.
Great module on the Italians on the Russian Front.
If you own a russian front game take a look at this add-on. It's about italians troops on the russian front and it's a small marvel. A great job by Andrea Garello.
