Overview:
Bidding system, German forces may vary. . . . The Commonwealth forces have created a Cauldron from which to destroy the Africa Corps. Rommel's troops, nearly exhausted from continuous fighting and desperately low on supplies, are attempting to breakout through a weak point in the Allied lines. The ill-equipped and poorly trained King's African Rifles are dug-in along a wadi, amongst a platoon of salvaged A9 tanks, and protected on both flanks by vast minefields. Rommel decided that the KAR would be victims of an early morning surprise, and sent out his engineers to open a gap in the minefield by cover of darkness the night before. The KAR awoke to plumes of dust on the horizon, just as the 90th Light's mechanized troops hit them with a flanking attack.Attacker: German (21st Panzer and 90th Light Division)
Defender: Commonwealth (King's African Rifles)
