Italian 'armour' from the Sicily Mobile Group. Scary eh?
Elements of 10 Panzer Division looking menacing.
German and Italian aviation assets happily co-habiting on a Sicilian airfield. The tri-motored horror is my bodged Cant Z1008.
More Axis air.
Italian infantry defending the front line.
The same Italians (with German Nebelwerfer support) being attacked by the Americans.
Sneaking round the flank? What a rotten trick!
Some of the Yanks had clearly been foraging. I bought these figures already painted at a show some years ago but I've no idea who the maker is.
The Italians reinforce the front line.
German troops of PanzerGrenadier Division 'Sicily' head to the front
on the north coast. What could go wrong?
Gott in Himmel! US bombers darken the sky.
The Americans break into the Italian position.
Chaos ensues!
The PanzerGrenadiers prepare for action, thankful that they brought along all those flak guns.More toy porn in the final part of this report - coming soon!

Looks a lot of fun. Well done.
LOL, fantastic stuff Tim. My Dad (ex-8th Army) would have loved it...
Though he would have probably have thought that those Yanks aren't quite scruffy enough! ;)

It was fun (both times), not least because there was so much going on at once. The Axis C in C in Messina had a full time job managing the evacuation!

More Brits next time!
Looking forward to more of this story, right enough!
Ah, I thought I didn't recognise some of the stuff, I played in the 2000 outing. Was it really so long ago!

Yes. I'm not sure I even owned a digital camera in 2000.
