After over a century of border disputes with Ecuador, the Peruvian Army began a massive build up for a final reckoning. With modern tanks from Czechoslovakia and modern artillery and planes from Italy, South America's first unit of paratroopers and a battalion of marines, Peru unleashed its blitzkrieg in July 1941. The war lasted for seven weeks, ending with a crushing Peruvian victory as Ecuador was forced to hand over half of the territory claimed by the Quito government.
War on the Equator is a supplement for the Panzer Grenadier system based on the battles waged between Peru and Ecuador in 1941. This module is not playable by itself, but requires ownership of Eastern Front and Road to Berlin. There are six scenarios, each based on an actual battle and featuring tank assaults, parachute landings, amphibious assaults, horsed cavalry and river gunboat operations.
War on the Equator is sold exclusively via PDF download. The playing pieces are not die-cut and mounted, nor is the scenario book printed. Instead it comes as a series of .pdf files that will need to be assembled into the game's components.
