Overview:

The 4th Armoured Brigade, probing northeast of Gabr Saleh, was driving a German recon unit before it. The Afrika Korps at last reacted, quickly forming several units of the 21st Panzer Division into Kampfgruppe Stephan which set out to investigate the reports of the British tanks. The Kampfgruppe located the tail-end regiment of the 4th’s and attacked. Cries for help brought the 5th RTR which arrived before dark and immediately counterattacked. . .
Attacker: British (5th Battalion, Royal Tank Regiment)

2020-12-02(A) rene cote vs mrosberg German winPlayed this 3 times in a row trying different approach with British. All three times ended in almost total annihilation of British force by end of turn 2( trying to make it behind the Germans). With red to hit and sun blindness, the Brits have a tough go.

2018-12-19(A) Jonathan Kapleau vs Holland, Donald British win
2018-11-17(D) Jonathan Kapleau vs Duenskie, Ron British win
2017-12-30(D) David Garvin vs John Stadick British winI malf'd a total of 4 AFV main guns in this one after I started out hot, eliminating 3 of his Stuarts and immobilizing another. He went for an ESB and of course stopped his tank. Victory was mine! Then my guns all jammed. Ha!

But John was skilful and got in behind those tanks (which I had put into motion in order to keep them alive long enough to fix their guns, or so I hoped) and of course the sun blinded me. My last survivor was the 9-1 AFV leader who went down in a blaze of glory. Great game by John!
