Monte Cassino, 90km SE of Rome, Italy: [Best played as Allied] Wishing for one more push to try and break the stalemate at Monte Cassino, General Freyberg organizes Operation Dickens. After a massive carpet bombing of the town of Cassino, the 6th New Zealand Brigade plans to take the town and open up Route 6 to Rome, while the 5th Indian Brigade attacks and takes Monte Cassino, securing the flank. Early in the day on the 15th, over a period of 3 1/2 hours, 300 heavy bombers and 200 medium bombers dropped thousands of tons of bombs on Cassino. Now it is the New Zealanders' chance to finally take the town and open up the Liri Valley, before Heidrich's paratroopers regain their senses.
