tutorial or beginning scenario

Piercing Fortress Europa is a new game from veteran game designer Frank Hunter, which covers the campaigns of the Western Allies from July, 1943 through the end of April, 1945 in Sicily and Italy. Each area has its own map and time scale to best represent the campaigns for Sicily and Italy and the player is offered complete freedom, limited only by a historical order of battle and logistics model, to plan his operations and explore all of the many “what ifs” that the Italian theater has to offer.

It looks like there is no tutorial or beginning scenario to introduce gameplay. I looked in the "getting started" section. It's not there?

Cut your teeth on the Sicily scenario.  Play both sides at least once to see how the game works.  Learn how to perform amphibious invasions, paradrops, combat supply and add replacements.  That's most of the game mechanics right there, easy.  Then move on to Southern Italy...

+1 The mechanics are simple; the right strategy requires thought. In Sicily, remember to but sea and air transport with supply. Move air superiority to max to insure the paradrops.
