Looking for Arab-Israeli campaigns
 

Hello-

I am looking for some campaigns covering any of the fighting between Israel and the Arabs. '48, '56, '67, '73, or '82. If anyone can point me in the right direction I would be greatly appreciative of their help.

Thanks

I did a search of the forum and couldn't find anything. There is one campaign included in the game (Thunder in the Sinai, lead the Egyptians in 1973 across the Suez) that you probably already know about that deals with these wars, but that's it. Most people here are apparently more interested in either modern or future wars or more obsure, out-of-the way conflicts. And there's also plenty of enthusiasm for WWIII Europe kind of things. But the Arab-Israeli wars have just been done over and over again so many times that people have lost interest.

And they´re boring armor-heavy campaigns, with the most boring terrain ever! So why bother.. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smirk.gif

Maybe a Jom Kippur campaign could be made against the syrians, but leave the Egyptians and the Super-boring Sinai out.

You must be kiding Lots of armour and ideal terrain for implement it in manuver warfare. most interesting tank battles from DAK in SP1 trough Golan Hieghst in SP2 an SP3 to DS1 covered in SP2 ocured on desserts. Sinai 1973 was also difficult but interesting campaign thanks to unique POV and Egiptian pesantry riding the tanks;) so maybe somebody would create campaign of 1967 war, on Jordanian front. Threre is a cool low scale scenario in WSPMBT made by WBW covering clash of well trained tank companies equiped on both sides with western armour on the outskirts of Jerusalem.

I like varying terrain. Not 5 kliks of plain sand, where he who has super-tanks will kill anything, tactics or not. If you´d use a huge 180x180 map maybe then.

1956, West Bank, some combined-arms Israel vs. Jordan action. Comparable weapons, varied terrain... Would be pretty damn good.
