Disk Operation Brevity 3/1941

UK division sized force (-) vs Axis.

UK assaults the Axis to take Halfaya (Hellfire) Pass near Sollum on the Egypt/Libyan border to start the relief of Tobruk.

450 UK units, 50 turns, 200x160 map. i.e. This is not a small scenario!.

UK has Australians, including the Divisional Cavalry - some captured M11/39s added since they were available (and cute ). Axis has both Italians and German DAK.

Main feature of this map is the coastal escarpment, which made the Sollum position and its back door ("Hellfire" Pass) important. The escarpment rises about 600 feet and is impassable except at a few points, thus splitting the battlefield.

This one has both an infantry assault and mobile "tankie" stuff too. Designed as Axis AI only, but may be playable as a PBEM between 2 humans?.

Slot number 428.

Feedback welcome.

Cheers
Andy
