📖 About This Game
A Raging Storm - The Campoleone Salient, February 3-4, 1944, is the eleventh game in the Tactical Combat Series (TCS) from The Gamers.
The game is set around the British 1st Infantry Division's defense of the Campoleone Salient, Anzio, 3-4 February 1944. "The German counterattacks against the Anzio beachhead were some of the bloodiest of World War II. To those involved, the fighting was reminiscent to WWI trench warfare. A Raging Storm covers the first of several German attacks. The brunt of this assault fell on the British 1st Infantry Division, whose defense demonstrated the tenacity and fighting qualities of the British Soldier." - From the introduction
