Overview:

The main line of defense in Libya was a natural bottleneck along the coast at Mersa el Brega, with the sea on one flank and an extensive salt marsh on the other. The British mined and wired this line extensively. Rommel launched a full scale assault on Mersa el Brega which breached the outer British defenses, then bogged down in the face of dogged resistance. The Germans paused to regroup in the swirling dust, and at 1700 hours came on again. . .

2020-07-25(D) Michael Rodgers vs Andy Beaton British winAfter eight turns of PBEM play, the German conceded because of CVP lost.
2020-03-07(D) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best British winWow...an epic game between Dan Best and myself. Dan's Schwerpunkt hit me on the south board edge and a bloody fight ensued. Dan's 10-2 and 2 squads were KIA'd with a lucky shot. A grueling smack down as Dan and I traded body blows until he no longer had enough exit DVP to win. Great game.
