Overview:

The Greek Resistance announced its presence to the world with one of the war's most spectacular sabotage acts, the blowing up of the Gorgopotamos railway bridge, linking northern and southern Greece, on 25 November 1942. This operation was the result of British mediation between ELAS and EDES (Operation "Harling"), carried out by 12 British Special Operations Executive (SOE) saboteurs and a joint ELAS-EDES force. This was the first and last time that the two major Resistance groups would cooperate, due to the rapidly developing rivalry and ideological retrenchment between them.
Attacker: Greek (ELAS / EDES Resistance Groups)
Defender: Italian (Italian Bridge Guard)

2026-11-03(D) Larry Rohlfing vs Ralph Garringer Italian winThe SSR is not clear but probably intends that the attacker gets cloaking counters, including dummies. Ralph took a slow cautious approach. On turn 5, the Italians had squads in the railroad hexes ADAJCENT to the wooden bridge. Ralph understood that placing a DC under the bridge was sufficient. We played it out to see if it made a difference. Tried twice, one crew broke and the other rolled 6,6 for resolution.

2021-11-05(A) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best Italian winMy Partisans broke early and often. The Italians staggered the assaults. On the final turn, I tried to place two DC's and was both squads were broken for an Italian win. I have nothing further to say.
