STRATEGY & TACTICS #341: Return to Europe: Sicily & Italy July-Nov 1943 (Wargame) Two-player wargame is the sequel to Desert Fox Deluxe that covers the Allied invasion of Sicily and southern Italy. The operation was viewed as only a limited offensive to secure the Mediterranean and force Italy out of the war. The Germans also intended only a limited effort to delay the Allies while a strong defense was established at the far north of the peninsula. Both sides scented greater possibilities in the early going and were drawn into what would become a grueling and expensive campaign. There are two scenarios, each covering all or part of the campaign. One player or team of players commands the Allied forces, the other the Axis. In general terms, the Allies are trying to knock Italy out of the war and seize the greatest amount of territory as possible, while the Axis seeks to maintain control of Italian territory for the maximum amount of time. Each game turn represents one month with up to six player-impulses in each GT. Each hex represents 6.7 miles (10 kilometers) from side to side. Combat units represent brigades/regiments to companies. Components: One 22 x 34-inch game map, 280 ½-inch counters, and magazine. $50.00 USD

WORLD AT WAR #90: Great European War, 1941-1943 (Wargame) Great European War is a two-player game of an alternative World War II in Europe, based on the premise that Adolf Hitler did not order the invasion of the Soviet Union in June 1941. Instead, the Axis goes over to a naval-air offensive against the British, with additional operations in North Africa and the Middle East, while waiting for America to enter the war, and keeping a watchful eye on Stalin who may intervene. The game assumes that the Western Allies decide on a Europe First strategy, diverting forces and logistics from the Pacific. The Axis is under pressure to win the war before economic collapse sets in, and the Allies to win before the Japanese seize too much of the Pacific. Given the shift in Axis logistics and planning against the British Empire and the U.S., only the westernmost Soviet Union is shown on the map, but there is emphasis on North Africa and the Middle East. There are two players: Axis and Allied (to include the Western Allies and the Soviet Union). Both players can develop orders of battle by expending Mobilization Points. The game shows the war in Europe during the early and mid-war years before the full Allied build-up. Both sides will be fighting a war which is markedly different from that fought in the historical event. The game ends in 1943, the time when the Western Allies originally planned to return to Europe. Components: 22 x 34 inch map, 280 ½-inch die-cut counters, and magazine. $50.00 USD

The British awarded 20 Victoria Crosses during this engagement during the Crimean War. Includes biographical tributes to many of the men who were killed in action, gives details of the places where they are commemorated, and provides biographies with all the up-to-date information concerning the VC recipients. $50.00 USD

PEARL HARBOR'S REVENGE: How the Devastated U.S. Battleships Returned to War After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the U.S. suffered eight battleships, three light cruisers, three destroyers, a training ship, and other smaller vessels sunk or damaged. Hundreds of U.S. aircraft had been damaged or destroyed, and 2,403 Americans had been killed. Within a week of the Japanese attack, a great salvage organization had been formed. Very quickly, the lightly damaged battleships Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Tennessee had been repaired in naval yards and put back into service to protect the west coast of the U.S.A.
Of the eight battleships attacked, all but the Arizona were raised, temporarily patched-up, and sent back to naval yards on the west coast of America for final repair and modernization. Main-battery guns and ordnance were recovered from the wrecked Arizona, which would then be left to rest on the bottom of the harbor for eternity – as a memorial to the events of that fateful December day. U.S.S. Nevada was lifted off the bottom in February 1942, California in March 1942, and West Virginia in June 1942. The capsized Oklahoma, while eventually parbuckled and raised, was found to be too badly damaged to be fully rebuilt. This is the story of the six of the eight battleships that were repaired and returned to service. $38.00 USD

SOVIET AIR POWER OF THE COLD WAR Describes and vividly illustrates the Soviet inventory of fighters and bombers, as well as trainers, transports, seaplanes, electronic warfare, and ground-attack aircraft, as well as an impressive helicopter fleet. In the 1950s, the U.S.S.R. possessed some 12,000 aircraft. By the 1990s, this had declined to around 8,000, with the reduction largely reflecting the increase in aircraft capability.
