Deleted image removed image Anzio.jpg thumb 300px Anzio original 1969 box art Anzio is a board wargame published by the Avalon Hill game company first in 1960s in games 1969 and again in 1971, 1974, and 1978. The title is misleading as the game is not an operational level treatment of the Battle of Anzio but is in fact a strategic level game covering the entire Italian Campaign World War II Italian theater of operations in World War II from the autumn of 1943 to the end of the war in Europe. Components Map The playing surface consists of two mounted mapboards placed end to end, with major terrain features including the mountains and rivers which in reality impeded the Allied advance.
