About Malta Under Siege: 1940-1942
(from the introduction:) The Malta Campaign is the first addition to the Down In Flames series. We selected Malta due to its pivotal role in the war in North Africa. Briefly, Malta is an island (17x9 miles) located in the Mediterranean Sea south of Italy. Its strategic position was taken advantage of by the British as a base for aircraft and naval units. These forces were in the perfect position to raid German freighters and air transports heading south to supply Rommel and the Afrika Korps in North Africa. Malta first came under attack by the Italians in 1940, and later by the Germans and Italians in 1941-42. Although severely battered, the island never fell. An expansion for Rise of the Luftwaffe found in RBM/GMT's C3i Magazine Nr3. This expansion covers the air war over Malta from 1940 to 1942. It includes new rules for Torpedo Bombers, Transports, and point values for the new Fighters introduced in the scenario. Contents: Background and rules Campaign Sequence of Play Plane sheets (2)
