Volturno Line (Axis)

**Volturno Line (Axis)** is a scenario in *Panzer Corps*.

## Briefings

As you are now aware, High Command and Regional Command have both agreed that the fighting in Italy must continue as far from Germany as possible. As attractive as falling back to shorten our supply lines might be, there is some very good defensive terrain in this part of Italy that you should be able to put to excellent use in stalling the American and British advance. In addition, to fall back now would only invite the Allies to establish more bases for their bombers to reach our vital oil and manufacturing facilities, and that is unacceptable!

**Your objective is to establish The Volturno Line by seizing and then holding on to all Victory Hexes.**

Arrayed against you are both American and British forces with significant air cover, so prepare your forces accordingly. You should try and make the most of the surrounding terrain to create strong defensive positions, especially making good use of rivers and rough terrain to stem the Allied advance. Victory here should stall the Allied advance throughout the rest of the year, giving us valuable time to prepare more defensive lines to further bog our enemies down in the coming months.

Good luck, Herr General, we are counting on you to make our enemies regret ever having returned to Europe!

### Decisive victory

A powerful finish to your latest campaign, Herr General.  You've managed to solidify our defensive lines and forced our enemy's advance to a mere snail's pace.  This campaign has had its ups and downs for certain, but it is far from over and our forces are far from defeated!

Before you are deployed to future campaigns, I am to inform you that you and your men are being rotated back to Germany briefly for rest and refitting.  This period of downtime will not last indefinitely, however, so be prepared to be called to duty again soon!

**Grand Campaign '43 West has been completed. Your core force and prestige have been automatically saved. When you start a Grand Campaign '44 West campaign, you will be prompted to import your core force and prestige into that campaign.**
