What books did you use for your research on the Greeco-Italian War? Only thing I have now is Hollow Legions.
I have Hollow Legion as well but the better book is called The Defense And Fall of Greece 1940-41 by John Carr and besides those two books, I used a number of internet sources. Those three together put the puzzle together.
I hope AP uses my game submission as I think it is really good.
The smaller parts of the war are difficult to find translated works for. Most of the reference material is primary source type material, written in the local language. This is the challenge I'm running into as I research the Brazilians (let's call it 'Smoking Cobras' for now).
90% of the reference material I've dug up is in Portuguese, which is ok, as I am able to translate a good amount of it, but it makes for exceedingly slow progress and note taking. Talk about putting the puzzle together!!!
