Trieste 1945

Just as a ceasefire was being declared in Central Europe the Yugoslavian Army and a New Zealand Division were in a race to take Trieste. The Yugoslavs got there first, but many of the Germans defending the city decided that they'd rather surrender to the Kiwis! Over 2nd and 3rd May it was a battle of wills, plus the odd bullet as the New Zealanders tried to rescue, or persuade and then rescue all of the German soldiers, under the increasingly belligerent eye of the Yugoslavs. This amuse-bouche of a postcard wargame tries to capture some of the spirit of those 2 days. 

You only need 3D6 plus the PDF to play, and a game takes around 5-10 minutes.
