Two maps display the battlegrounds from Austria to Crete, including all of Yugoslavia, Albania, and Greece along with bordering regions. The terrain analysis includes rivers, woods, rough, mountains, karst, swamp, and impassable mountains. Six-hundred die cut counters represent the military units of the nine mations that took part in the campaign. Units are deployed as individual battalions, regiments, brigades, and divisions - each with its historical designation, strengths, and capabilities. Aircraft units are groups of approximately 40-50 planes organized by type (such as fighter or dive-bomber) and model (from obsolete CR.42 biplanes to Me109's). The Hungarian Duna river flotilla is included; for future Europa use, so are the entire navies of Greece and Yugoslavia.

The standard Europa rules present a framework of movement, combat, and combat/motorized exploitation. Special considerations cover Greek mountain capability, the Yugoslav coup, and British naval interdiction.

Italian Greater Preparation: This section is optional, and used under the provisions found on the Greek Order of Battle.
One Italian plan for the invasion of Greece called for a greatly increased participation of Italian units. The Italian High Command rejected this plan for fear that Hitler would
not sanction any action in this region of Europe, and also because Visconti Prasca, the Military Governor of Albania, insisted that he could do the job without additional troops. If this option is used, add to the units that may initially deploy anywhere in Albania all the reinforcements for the Nov 11, Dec I, and Dec I I turns. Reinforcements are not received until the Jan 141 turn, thereafter they arrive as listed on the Order of Appearance.

OPTIONAL UNITS

The following optional units sections explore historical alternatives that could have occured and thus influenced the course of the campaigns. Each optional units section may be used separately or in conjunction with the others. Both players must agree to use an optional units section; otherwise, it may not be used.
British Contingency Troops: The British had earmarked several formations to be sent to Greece. However, Rommel's attack in Cyrenaica, taking both the British and the German High Command by surprise, caused the British to retain these troops in North Africa. Assuming that Rommel had attacked at a later date (or not at all, per his orders), these units would have been sent to Greece. When using this section, add the following units
to the British order of battle:
Apr II 41
Cmnwlth: 5-6 Infantry XX 7
3-6* Infantry X Pol/Carp
May I 41
British: 2-6 Infantry X 16
Greek Air Force Purchases: The Greek government had ordered a number of aircraft from Britain, but they were never delivered. Assuming they had been, add the fol
lowing units to the Greek Air Force:
1 x Hurri-1 4F4 0/8
1 x Blen-1 3B3 1-2/20
