In episode twenty-five, we continue to press the advance against the Italian positions to the west, taking the fight to an enemy machine gun supported by an infantry squad. Avenues for a safe advance are limited and our troops are weary. Will we have the strength to take the remaining objectives? Or will we just do our best to hold the road and wait for reinforcements?
Burden of Command is a platoon-level roleplaying game where we take on the role of an officer in the United States Army commanding a platoon in the 7th Infantry Regiment ("The Cottonbalers") during World War Two. This game uses WW2 as a setting, but in addition to a tactical game, it's a roleplaying game where your personality and how you interact with the officers around you have a major impact in your personal story and the stories of the troops serving under and alongside you. In this run, I'll be roleplaying a sarcastic reservist who loves hearing himself talk and always looks after his troops.
