But Relic's also built it with an eye towards logistics and authenticity. It's a fetching map, too, with lots of little cosmetic flourishes, like the Vesuvius standing next to Pompeii, huge and menacing, or the striking Monte Cassino, which looks lovely even when it's surrounded by barricades, tanks and AA guns. You don't need to take every town in Italy, but I quickly found myself being seduced by the promise of total conquest and all the goodies that come with it.
Each discrete bit of territory offers something, whether it's more resources, another link in the supply chain-if the chain breaks, your cut-off units won't be at peak efficiency-or access to air and naval forces. It's a chunky map, but only a small slice of the full Italian campaign map that we'll get to play at launch.
With my army in Naples, the sprawling Italian countryside stretches out before them.
