Operation Husky was a combined Allied invasion of the island of Sicily, in Southern Italy. This led to Operation Torch, which would secure Northwestern Africa and crush Rommel's retreating troops after his failed offensives and subsequent defensives in Africa. Originally, the US wanted to adopt a "Europe First" approach to defeating Germany, wanting to invade Northern France, but the UK and her allies were adamant that Africa was the more important strategic target. Operation Torch was a combined Allied invasion of Vichy French North Africa. In Africa, only 5 days later, the African Campaign starts with raids on Italian positions in Libya. Hitler is prepared for trench warfare like in WW1, but little would he know this invasion would see mobile, mechanised warfare like never seen before, and will set German tactical doctrine for years to come. Compared to the French Army, the German army is severely underequipped and undermanned, but French High Command is stuck in WW1 strategy. A single spark may be all it takes.įall Rot is the German Operational name for the Invasion of France. Almost twenty years have passed since the end of the Great War, and the world has yet again been doused in gasoline. Mussolini's Italy continues to embark on daring military adventures. In Europe, Hitler has consolidated his power and his attention is now increasingly drawn beyond Germany's borders.
On a map of Europe the size of Vanilla's map, you can play as the Allies or the Axis, with fast paced combat, interesting focus trees and high stakes to definitively prove or disprove the Axis could have repelled the D-Day landings. Primo Victoria attempts a more realistic approach to the War in the West and consequently the Normandy Landings and the following Battle for France. Primo Victoria is Latin for First Victory (see the name discussion for more info), and refers to the first victory in Western Europe by the Allies in D-Day after the defeat in 1940.
