Fallschirmjäger vs. Red Devils at Primosole Bridge (Wargame Overview)

As part of our continuing 80th Anniversary commemorative coverage of Operation Husky (Allied invasion of Sicily in July and August 1943), we had a great 15mm wargame in Mark Ritchie’s Tactical Combat system depicting the Red Devils and their battle for Primsole Bridge, 13-15 July 1943.

Then Oriskany Jim’s hard drive melted down like core of Chernobyl and all the recorded footage was lost. In a desperate effort to present at least the highlights of what was an awesome game, I humbly offer this wargame overview and discussion.

There’s some remaining footage of some other games still available, we hope to be back up to our usual level of production later on this week.
