Italy ’43 Unboxing & Overview | GMT’s Tactical WWII Advance to the Gustav Line 🎲🪖
📦 Another Mark Simonitch masterpiece hits the table!

Picking up where Salerno '43 left off, Italy '43 is a two-player operational-level wargame that captures the U.S. Fifth Army’s hard-fought advance from Naples to the Gustav Line in late 1943. This title dives deep into the tough mountain terrain, resilient German defenses, and strategic dilemmas that defined the Allied campaign in southern Italy.
