A "what if" campaign- July 1942 German/Italian Forces invading the island of Malta against British Forces. There will be airborne and beach assaults, aerial combat, and naval engagements.
What If: The invasion of Crete had gone better for the Germans, the Battle of Gazala had gone worse, and Tobruk remains in British hands in July 1942? The Axis Powers decide to initiate Operation Herkules [planned invasion of the island of Malta]. Here is your opportunity to see how successful this invasion plays out with three linked, 4-hour scenarios using the Flames of War rules set in a combined land, sea, & air adventure. Forces will include German/Italian Airborne & ground troops, Commonwealth Forces, and rules for incorporating naval and aerial combat. Results of the morning session may carry over into the afternoon session. 8 players per session,
