Gary Grigsby's War in the West Operation Torch is an expansion for Gary Grigsby’s War in the West. It adds 10 scenarios covering operations in the African and Western European theaters from late 1942 to 1945, including historical and hypothetical campaigns.

Following Rommel’s defeat at the Second Battle of El-Alamein in 1942, the British 8th Army, commanded by General B.L. Montgomery, advances deep into northern Libya. Axis forces are limited, disheartened and short of supplies, creating an opportunity for the Allies to take control of the southern Mediterranean and prepare to land in Europe.
