After doing some preliminaries for my Europe Aflame 42 scenario, I quickly realized there are too many things I am unsure about in the TOAW editor. :hmmm: Therefore, as practice I am going to work on a MUCH smaller scenario and have picked the BattleAxe operation of the Commonwealth forces against Rommel near Sollum and Bardia in June of 41.
Going to do 8-12 half-day turns (since the real battle was only 3 days long), 2.5km/hex, battalion size, with a map focusing on the area around Bardia, Ft. Capuzzo, and Halfaya pass region.
I have been trawling the internet for a good map of this battle, and so far have been unable to find anything that I would call reference quality. At the very least I would like to find a good large-scale topographic map of the area. Anyone have any suggestions? The US Military Academy maps aren't detailed enough
You would think since I have a degree in Geography finding maps would be the easy part of this endeavor! :laugh:
Any ideas appreciated!
