Beda Fomm Remake

[The Purist]

Good evening,

I have a remake of the Beda Fomm battle,...without the Australians and Matilda tanks. I'm billing it as a semi-historical fight as I am compressing the map to cover most of the battlefield in roughly 2500 metres by 1600 metres. I am also squeezing the time scale a bit in trying to show the evolution of the 3 day battle in a 50+ variable length scenario.

It starts off as a medium size battle on a large map but will quickly grow as the Italians organize themselves for the breakout attempt. The British blocking force has also called for help and reinforcements are en route.

If you are interested send me a note and I'll email the scenario.

Cheers and thanks. :)

February 1941 in the desert,...the Italian 10th Army is trapped and preparing for the breakout. Down the road is the British blocking force and there are reports of Britis armour roaming about. Clear the road...Save the 10th Army! Or,...command The Rifle Brigade and 2nd RTR in this classic battle in Africa.

No Tigers,...no T-34s,...no Pershings here. No, no,....no wonder weapons on either side this time. Only the courage of your soldiers and your skill in command will give you victory. What will it be? A last ditch defence that breaks the enemy? Or a desperate attack to sweep the enemy aside and change the fortune of an ill-starred campaign.

What say you!? Are you man eneough? :D

This looks to be a much more promising scenario than the disk version, and more accurate. :)
